iPhone missing Mail app from home screen

If your Mail app on  your home screen on your iPhone went missing like mine did this morning, here is a non-traditional fix. Like you, I Google’d this as well after my troubleshooting efforts.

Here is what happened to me. This am, all my apps from the home screen were gone but the “Messages” and I looked all over the phone, in folders, etc. Nothing, all gone. Then I found a link that said to “reset home screen and layout” (Settings->General->Reset) tried that but only the “Messages” came back, still no Mail app.

Then on a forum I go to, I asked the question, “iPhone missing Mail app from home screen” and another tech recommended that I go looking in the apps folders, well….nothing there. So I went to the “Apps Store” and searched “Mail” and there is was, I downloaded it and installed and boom, Mail back!

iHope this was helpful 🙂
