What to do if your iPhone home screen disappears

Is there something wrong with your iPhone home screen? The email is still on the first page, and Instagram is also on the third page social media app, but Google Maps is missing? You swipe left and right, slowly realizing that your favorite navigation program (and everything on the same page) is gone.

Don't worry, this is not Google maliciously deleted your app. You just accidentally hid or deleted the home screen page. The solution is very simple.

How to delete or rearrange home screen pages on iOS

To retrieve the lost page, you must first know where it went. First, press and hold any blank space on the home screen, or press the dot at the bottom of the screen to display the number of application pages. All applications start to jitter. You can also enter this state by long pressing an app and selecting Edit Home Screen.

Now, click the dot at the bottom of the screen to display a similar jitter interface for all home screens. You can hold a page and drag to reorder the order, but if you want to hide or delete a page, click the tick below it. If you see an unchecked page (for example, a page containing your lost Google Maps), it means the page is hidden - click the hollow circle to restore it. To further delete the entire home screen page, click the minus icon that appears after unchecking.

If you choose to delete the home screen page, your apps won't disappear - they can still be found in the App library, and iOS will prompt you this. Confirm Delete to delete the entire page.

How to recover deleted app shortcuts

To access any apps that are no longer located on the home screen, swipe left from the last available home screen to open the App Library, or swipe down to open the iOS search menu. You can search for lost apps anywhere and open them directly from the results screen.

To put the app back to the home screen, you need to enter the App Repository. There, search for the program, long press it, and select Add to Home Screen. That's it. You don't even need Google Maps to guide you.
