loss of messages icon

I am new to using iphones. It's SE 2020. Message icon vanished. When I went to settings I could only get

a reset that would undo all my other settings- it seemed to be linked to transferring to another phone, which obviously doesn't apply. Help, please!

iPhone SE, iOS 15

Try scrolling all the way to the right into the App Library.

Once there locate the messages app

Then, long-press on the open are on the screen until the apps jiggle

Move messages to the screen of your choice.
