By Spencer Mcfadden, on July 27, 2021, in iPhone Problems | SOLVED

Missing Videos App on iPhone 8 Plus and How To Get It Back? I installed iOS 14 on my iPhone 8 Plus (from iOS 13) last night and this morning see that my Videos app has disappeared! I have seen seen posts about how to reinstall the Videos app through the App Store, but I think this will restore just the app, not all the videos I had in it? Can someone please help? I use the app for work and am now very worried that Ive lost all movies.

In the past few weeks, floods of users ask us why their Videos app are missing / disappeared on their iPhone or iPad after iOS 14 update.
