If you want to recover lost apps on your iPhone, there are several solutions. This way, you can easily redownload apps.
Recover lost apps directly with your iPhone
You can restore accidentally deleted apps to your iPhone by downloading them again. All the apps you have purchased are presented in a list.
- Start the App Store on your home screen.
- Select your name or sign in.
- Click on “iPhone & iPad Apps”.
- A list of the apps you have purchased will now appear. Now you just have to tap/click on the cloud symbol next to the desired application to re-download your missing app.
Restore deleted apps on your iPhone with iTunes
With iTunes, you also have the opportunity to track down lost apps and transfer them back to your iPhone. To do this, you must first log in with the same Apple ID as your iPhone.
- Start iTunes.
- Click on “Store” in iTunes and then select “Sign in…”.
- Enter your account information and then go to the main page of iTunes by clicking on the “Home” icon.
- Here you select your “Purchased Items”.
- Under “Apps” you will see all the apps you have purchased. You can now download these. Open your media library and select “Apps”. Now drag and drop your apps onto your iPhone.
Restore an integrated app that has been removed
If you have removed a so-called integrated app from your home screen, this may affect the system functions. Therefore, it’s best not to delete such apps at all. If you do, however, you can restore them.
- Go to the App Store on your iPhone.
- Type the correct name of the built-in app in the search bar.
- Once you have found the app, click on the cloud icon to restore it.
- Now you have to wait until the app has been restored. You can then open the application on the home screen.
