Where has my Weather app icon gone???

My weather app is still loaded on my iPhone, but the icon does not appear on my home screen. Where is it, and how can I get it back onto my homescreen?

It can't be deleted, nor can it be restricted. Look closely on every page & in every folder(if you have folders). Still don't see it? Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout. See if you see it now.

All iPhones with IOS 4.3.3 and above alowed you to group apps together in "folders" - look for an "app" icon that looks like it has more than one thing in it, and that's where your Weather app is - It is usually on the main (first) screen, where the Game center, Calculator, and Contacts were stashed in a folder.


When I restored my apps after updating to IOS 5, it de-grouped all my 200-Plus apps, and it was a pain to re-categorise them! But it is easy to do that, just drag and drop the app icons together. And if you want to remove an app from a group, just grab it and Sliiide it out of the folder onto the iPhone desktop.
