It can be hidden by you, or by an administrator if your device is managed by an education or business institution. In the latter case you need to contact the administrator.


See if you hid it with restrictions:

Screen Time - Allowed apps https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201304#allow-apps

- "If you turn off an app or feature, it won’t delete it, it’s just temporarily hidden from your Home screen."

- Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > [Enter passcode] > Allowed Apps


See if it is in your App Library -->

Organize the Home Screen and App Library on your iPhone [iOS14] - https://support.apple.com/HT211345


"Search for it ( https://support.apple.com/HT201285 ). Swipe down from the middle of any home screen and type App Store into the search field at the top of the screen. If it is in a folder, it will show the folder on the right of the app name after you tap on the app when it appears in the search."


If you did delete it, re-download it:
