The App Store app cannot be removed from the iPhone. It can be restricted, or it can be moved to a different Home Screen, into a folder or off to the App Library, but it cannot be deleted.


Start by looking for the App in the App Library.

click here ➜ Organize the Home Screen and App Library on your iPhone - Apple Support

Look for it on a different Home Screen or in a folder.

Also check Settings ➜ Screen Time ➜ Content and Privacy Restrictions ➜ iTunes & App Store Purchases ➜ Installing Apps, and make sure it's set to "Allow". It may take a moment for the app to re-appear once you change it though.
