Second Home Screen disappears in Focus Mode

With IOS 16 on an iPhone SE, my second Home Screen disappears when in Focus/ Do Not Disturb mode. Not a horrible inconvenience but weird. Anyone else?

Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities, Swr0524,

If we understand your post correctly, when you turn on Focus you're not able to see the second Home Screen page on your iPhone. We’d like to help.

Focus is able to be customized so that only certain Home Screen pages are visible. It sounds like this is what you're seeing. To control this feature follow these steps:

Go to Settings > Focus.
Select the Focus that you want to customize, then choose the Home Screen.
Create a new Home Screen page, select an existing Home Screen page, or select multiple pages that you want to connect to this Focus.
Tap Done.

For more detail see the "Connect Home Screen pages to Focus" section of the article here:

Let us know if that resolves this issue for you.

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.
