There are a couple reason why you would not see the App Store:

  • Are you a member of a Family Plan? The Organizer can disable the App Store so you do not see it.
  • Is it available in the App Library when you swipe all the way to the left and then swipe down on the screen to view the apps alphabetically?
  • Are you in the EU? That is the only region where the App Store can be deleted from your device.
  • Check Screen Time settings at Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes & App Store Purchases > Installing Apps. This should be set to Allow.
