Sign in to https://forums.androidcentral.com/e.../https://play.google.com/store&token=aL1CXp4e from a computer and see if the app shows there. It will also tell you there if the app is compatible with your device (if it isn't it won't show when searching from the Play Store on the device, this is why you need to log in from a browser on a PC).

I have now created an account. I checked from a PC where you instructed and the app I am looking for does not show up. Does this mean this app has been removed? I don't think so personally, I deleted the app yesterday and I doubt it was removed in that one days time.

It is certainly possible that the app was removed from the Play Store.
Since its removal would not affect the software on your phone, it could have been removed from the Play Store any time between the day you installed it and "yesterday".

Oh so I could have just had an app that had been deleted then? But I was getting updated still...

Welcome.

When was the last update? It's possible Google received notice of malicious code in the app, or it was similar to another app and that developer asked that it be removed.

Around a 1-2 weeks ago. Also I had two apps by the same developer. One was an earlier version and the other was the newer version. both were deleted at the same time and both cannot be found now.

Do you mind sharing the app or developer name? Maybe someone here can do some more digging and find some info.

If I could remember the app I would have done something about it already but I can't remember the name of it for some reason, I also spent around half an hour trying to search for it but to no avail.

Look under "My Apps and Games" - "Library Tab"

Not there either...

Are you certain it was downloaded from the appstore?

 

[Purplesieve]

I'm positive.
