Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Will unhiding an app erase any of my information?

No, unhiding an app only returns it to the Home Screen. Your app information remains intact.

What if the app is not in the Hidden folder?

In that case, attempt a search with Spotlight Search or alternatively, check if the app is restricted in Screen Time settings.

How do I see if an app is hidden in the App Library?

If an app is not on your Home Screen, search for it in the App Library or with Spotlight. If it is there, it is only hidden, not erased.
