Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 SM-T865 - No YouTube icon?

[Android Central Question]

Have just purchased a Galaxy Tab S6 SM-T685. During setup I must have pressed some wrong buttons as I have a problem with the YouTube app. It appears as an installed programme in Settings > Apps, but there is no icon in the main App page, and the only way I can open it is via Settings > Apps > Open. I have cleared the app cache and data. I assume that this is a pre-installed app as there is no provision to reinstall it. How can I put this right and if possible I want to avoid a factory reset?

You could try to reset the app preferences or wipe the system cache in recovery mode. Not sure if they will help.

Maybe check the Play Store and see if there's an app update, as well an update might fix the icon problem if it's needed.

Does your app drawer have folders? It might be tucked away in a Google folder since it is a Google app.

Welcome to Android Central! When you say you can't see it in the main App page, do you mean the App Drawer or your homescreen?
