I accidentally deleted the Apple calculator app from a new 8 so now there is no calculator in control center. Can I get it back?
Can the calculator app be reinstalled if accidentally deleted, so it can go in control center
iPhone 8, iOS 11

Yes it can. Just go to the App Store and type in Apple Calculator. It was the second on my search list, but it may be in a different position on yours. It just says "Calculator" with "Utilities" below it.

Ditto here as well. And the reason ours say Open is because they are already installed on our devices. I haven't installed any additional calculator apps on my device, so it is definitely the one that came with the device!

Thank you
You are most welcome 🙂

The one that says “utilities “isn’t the factory Apple Calc
Lots of lookalikes listed, but your confirmation should help to convince others that this is the real one....
