Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
HI! Safari has disappeared from my home screen, and I have tried checking the restrictions but I don't know my restrictions password ( it's not my passcode for my lock screen ). I have also tried resetting the home screen arrangement but that didn't work either. Do you know how I can retrieve Safari?
iPhone 5s, iOS 8.3
If you don't know your restrictions password, you may have a problem. You could try restoring your phone to the last backup, but then you will lose everything since that backup. Any Apps or material that you've bought from the App Store would however still be available, but not stored data within those apps since the last backup.
That is, of course, assuming that the restrictions hadn't been set and that you still had Safari at the time of the last backup. I'm not sure that it will work, but may well be worth a try, or seek another opinion on here.
Have you tried searching for it using Spotlight. While on your on your Home Screen drag your finger down the screen bringing up the Search box. Search for Safari (it could be tucked in a folder).
If it is in Restrictions then unfortunately the only way to reset Restrictions is restoring your iPad as a new device, and if you have a backup from before Restrictions was set, you can then restore that,
Ok thank you I will try that however my Siri is also messed up. Whenever I try to acces it "Voice Control" comes on instead. I have already turned off voice call and when I try to go to Siri settings there is none
Safari has disappeared how do I retrieve it
