How to get the App Store back after it deleted???

So my mum put a parental control on apps and I downloaded an app it didn’t like so it deleted the app and the App Store and because of this I can’t update any of my apps and it’s becoming really inconvenient. What should I do?

I had the same issue. I turned off Content & Privacy Restrictions by going to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions. Then saw my App Store in the App Library.


I updated my apps and then was able to place my content restrictions back on.

one day I was about to go download an app on app store and then when I checked on my phone it wasn't there but I went to go look at my iPad and I was like maybe it's there, but it wasn't and I already tried searching library but nothing came up and every time I click on an ad from another game that I already had it just sent me to Safari, but I can't download anything on the Safari App Store and it's not working and because I don't know what to do I've literally tried everything and nothing works so please help

He used to let me get into my Apple Store, but no longer lets me do that when I tap on the side button twice

Not clear what you are trying to accomplish. Double clicking the side button is used to authorize purchases in the App Store or to bring up the Wallet app to make a purchase. Is it a problem with authorizing purchases in the App Store:

Do you have the App Store app?
