Underlock App Not Downloading from iCloud

My phone broke and I got a new one, when I downloaded the iCloud backup from the previous phone onto my new one, the new one still had the Underlock App on it but had the iCloud symbol next to it. When I tried to tap on it on the phone to redownload it from the cloud, it said the app had been removed from the app store and gave me two options: "keep" or "remove". I kept it and because of the backup file, I know the data (photos and videos) are still on my phone but because I can't open the app I can't access them. I know they're there and I need them but I can't get to them. I've tried data extractor programs on my computer and haven't figured it out yet. Does anyone know how I can retrieve the data on the app?

iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 14

When you restore from an iCloud backup, the apps themselves have to be reinstalled from the App Store. So while the icon may be there as your backup file had a reference to that app, the app itself is not on your new phone because it is not available in the App Store any longer.


Unless the app developer is still in business, and is responsive, you’ll not be able to get that app or access your locked data from it.
