First check the App Library and see if its there. To get to the App Library, swipe from right to left on your first home screen until you get to it. Look for the App Store and if it's there, hold your finger on it and move it to any home page you want.


If it's not there, go to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > App Store & iTunes Purchases and make sure all are marked Allow

It isn't possible to completely delete the App Store – except in the European Union. If you believe that you have just removed the icon from your Home Screens, see the "Move an app from App Library to the Home Screen" section of

If you are in the EU and have gone to the trouble to completely remove the App Store from your phone, you can still restore it by following the instructions in the second Support article below.
