App Folder Missing

I went to check my "Work" folder I created with all my work related apps in it, and it's missing. When I search my phone for the individual apps that were in that folder (ie. Outlook) I can find them, but they aren't anywhere on my Home Screen OR in a different folder. How is this possible? And how do I get them back?

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 17

Getting App Icons Back:


Use Drag & Drop on the Home Screen:

Tap on the Home Screen. Then, hold your finger on the far-right edge of the screen. Next, swipe your finger in from the right. Next Drag & Drop the apps back over.
