Missing Settings Icon on Home Screen

Question

So where has my settings icon gone? I didn’t ask for it to be moved…so why??

Surely Apple have not spoken and mentioned such a thing should not be so accessible? It’s absolutely fundamental!

PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO REVERT TO HAVING THE ICON IN MY HOME SCREEN!

You cannot delete the Settings app, so the app is just missing from your Home Screen.

Keep swiping left on your iPhone till you reach the App Library, from there you can access all your apps, including the Settings app. And you can drag the Settings app back to your Home Screen.
