The App Store cannot be deleted from the phone, so you cannot download it. You may not see it on your Home screens because of one of these 2 reasons:

  • Go to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes & App Store Purchases > Installing Apps, and make sure it is set to Allow.
  • Check the App Library by swiping all the way to the left and enter "App Store" in the search field and if found you can drag it to one of your Home screens.


If your phone is part of a Family Plan, then the Organizer is using parental controls to prevent use of the App Store.
