You may want to switch them back?: Move apps and widgets on the iPhone Home Screen - Apple Support

Eg: Above article says:

  1. "Go to the Home Screen.
  2. Touch and hold the Home Screen background until the items begin to jiggle.
  3. Drag the app or widget to one of the following locations:
    • Another location on the same page—including the top, bottom, or side of the screen

or

  • Another Home Screen page : Drag the app or widget to the right edge of the screen. You might need wait a moment for the new page to appear. The dots above the Dock show how many pages you have and which one you’re viewing.


  • When you’re finished, press the Home button (on an iPhone with a Home button)

or tap the Home Screen background (on other iPhone models)."
