Thanks for the info but the icon isn’t there either. When I looked it up through my short cuts it says App Store is restricted.

Then you either have Screen Time Restrictions enabled or your device has profile/MDM or an Exchange account configuration active that has placed restrictions on the App Store app on your iPhone.
