missing app

grumpy old man:
Whilst doing a bit of housekeeping on home page of my android phone I accidentally removed the app/link to six apps including google maps. Is there any way of getting this back?

Thanks

Just install them again from the Play Store

If they've only been removed from the Home screen, they should still be there in the "main" list.
Try the grey icon with the 3 by 3 white dot matrix to get to that list, then press and hold to move to the Home screen.

grumpy old man:
Thank you for your replies.

I tried play store after my mistake but couldn't find the 'link app'. 

I don't have the grey item with three dots on page of apps.

Sorry, I was making an assumption, based on my own Android phone.
Seems the icon referred  to varies greatly on different phones.
I think it's likely you've lost the "launcher" on the home screen rather than the app itself, which hopefully is still in the "app drawer" - ie the screen(s) showing ALL installed apps.
This article may help.
