my voice recorder app is missing

Apparently my voice recorder that came as a pre-installed app is gone. I just noticed that it was missing when I went to record a lecture I was in.

CAn anyone tell me how to recover this app? The free on I saw in the app store that "looks" similar states that it is unavailable

Voice Recordings is a built in app, and cannot be deleted.


Use Spotlight to search for it, if it does not come up then the phone is misbehaving, and some settings need to be reset.


Start by restarting the phone, hold the Sleep/Wake button until you get slide to power off and slide.


If it is still missing after restarting try resetting: Hold the Sleep/Wake button as well as the Home button, ignore the "Slide to power off" and keep holding until you get an Apple logo.


If it is still missing go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.


If it still missing you will need to restore your phone.
