It can't be deleted and likely was moved to a different home screen page or inside a folder. Search for it there.


You can reset it to its original location:


Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout


(Note that the above instructions for resetting the phone are incorrect:


1. Do not shut down phone first

2. Press both home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears

3. The phone restarts itself - that's what the Apple logo is indicating.)
