*HEADS UP!*
On some iPhones or iOS versions, you may need to swipe *RIGHT* instead of left!

I have an IPhone SE 2020, running iOS v14.8, and I was struggling to find the App Library, until I tried swiping all the way to the *right*. I’m not sure why this is, but for anyone who’s having trouble finding the App Library, try swiping all the way to the right!

Good luck all! Hope this helps!

When I do that it only gives me a Share option and icon. I’m on the latest iOS. Any other way pls?

This short and to the point video saved me so much time trying to figure it how to do this! Thank you so much!

When I hold it it only gives me the option to share it

[ZEvenEsh]

that option is not available for me. Just share, see ratings & write review. Is there another way to bring back an app to home screen other than this?

[AA-kfuf]

didn't work for me either. didn't get the option to add to home screen. You need to find the app like it directs you to, then drag it to the home screen.

This isn’t an option for me, it’s only giving in app options

This did not work for me, when I press and hold it nothing happens.

Thanks a bunch. Made a folder on my Home Screen. Hadn’t had my coffee yet and deleted folder thinking (for some reason) that the icons would just fall out back onto my Home Screen. Couldn’t figure out how to put them back. Easy peasy with this video.
