Where is Find My app on my iPhone?

The directions say use the Find My app on your iPhone if you have lost something. I see no icon on my phone that says use the Find My app. Where is it?

iMac 27″, macOS 12.6

Apps can be removed from the home screen without being deleted. Go to the App Library (swipe left past your last home screen). From there you can touch and hold an app and slide it to the home screen.

Also note the Search window at the top of the App Library.


If the Find My app is not anywhere on your phone, it may have been deleted. To reinstall, see the following from Delete built-in Apple apps from your iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch - Apple Support


Restore a built-in app that you deleted

  3. Tap the Redownload button .
  4. Wait for the app to restore, then open it from your Home Screen.

Bro, just swipe down on your home screen and type "Find My"(www.icloud.com/findgoku tu) in the search bar. It's probably in some folder you forgot about. Happens to me all the time. 🙄 Good luck!
