Can you retrieve deleted apps from iPhone?

Answered by Antonio Sutton

It is possible to retrieve deleted apps from an iPhone. The process involves accessing the list of purchased apps from the App Store and downloading the app again onto your device. This option is particularly useful if you don’t remember the name of the app or if you’re unsure about which apps you had deleted.

Here’s how you can restore deleted apps on your iPhone:

1. Open the App Store on your iPhone. You can find the App Store icon on your home screen.

2. Tap on the “Updates” tab at the bottom right corner of the screen.

3. Now, tap on your profile picture or the account icon at the top right corner of the screen. This will take you to your account page.

4. On your account page, scroll down and look for the “Purchased” section. Tap on “Purchased” to access the list of all the apps you have previously downloaded or purchased.

5. By default, the “All” tab will show all the apps you have ever downloaded or purchased. If you’re not sure about the name of the app you want to restore, you can use the search bar at the top of the screen to search for it.

6. Once you find the app you want to restore, tap on the cloud icon next to it. This will begin the download and installation process.

7. Depending on the size of the app and your internet connection speed, the app should be downloaded and installed onto your iPhone within a few moments.

8. Once the app is successfully installed, you can find it on your home screen or in the app library, depending on your iOS version.

It’s important to note that if you had previously purchased a paid app, you won’t be charged again when restoring it from the purchased list. However, if the app was free or if it had in-app purchases, you may need to go through the purchase process again for any additional content or features.

Retrieving deleted apps on an iPhone is a simple process that involves accessing the list of purchased apps from the App Store and downloading the desired app again. This method is particularly useful when you don’t remember the name of the app or if you’re unsure about which apps you had deleted.
