My photo app went poof after I loaded a bunch of 3rd parties. Not sure what the culprit was - but Photo is gone. Does anyone know of a way I can just load that one app? I'm leery of restoring, etc. as I just spent at least an hour carefully setting up my phone.

Is restoring and starting from scratch my only recourse?

Did you use Customize to organize the order of your icons? If so, it may just be hidden: It's very easy to hide an app accidentally when using Customize, and it can be undone by simply running it again and making sure the eye is visible at the left hand side of the app.
 
Yea. I wish I knew which app nuked it. I actually had this happen before but don't recall what I did about it. Probably restored, but gosh I hope I don't have to do that. I spent SO much time the past 2 days getting my iPhone to take apps again. I wouldn't mind so much if it was Calculator.

I do have Customize loaded but unless it happened without me knowing - I didn't choose that sort feature, etc. I'll try playing with customize.
 
Phil! :) Thank you so much! Yes, it's at the bottom of my customize list without an eye. I made the eye show up but now it's on page 3. Oh! I just moved it. Wonderful. You saved me probably 3 hours of hell. LOL
