Go to the App Store and tap your user icon in the upper right and choose purchased. You can choose "Not on this Phone" to view the list of apps. The date shown is the download date, not the deleted date, so you will have to review the list of apps there.

Troubleshooting Lost Apps:

A. View This Purchase:

Go Here: See your Purchase History for the App Store, iTunes Store and More - Apple Support


B. Removed from App Store:

Note that sometimes items are removed from the App Store, and they never become accessible again. This all has to do with licensing between Apple and the Developer. So, if not found int he App Store, then it would be gone.


C. Restore form a Backup:

Have a backup of your iPhone prior to this issue? If so, restore your iPhone from a backup that contains this app. IMPORTANT: Prior to restoring, backup your iPhone, incase anything goes wrong with the restoration. If you have no backup, then know to always backup your Mac, prior to updating.
