#images keyboard app missing

What do we do when the #images app is missing entirely? How can we get it back?

Hi srmercer88,


We know using images in iMessage is a fun way to interact with friends and family, and we're here to help you get that working again.


Take the steps found here to manage your iMessage apps:

Manage iMessage apps
You can add apps to your Favorites so you have quick access to them in the app drawer. You can also reorder apps in the app drawer, remove the ones you don’t want, and more. Here’s how:


From the app drawer, swipe left and tap the More button more icon.


Tap Edit in the upper-left corner to do the following:


To add an app to your Favorites, tap the Add button Add button.


To remove an app from Favorites, tap the Remove button Remove button, then tap Remove from Favorites.


To reorder apps in the app drawer, touch and hold the gray lines three lines icon, then move the apps in the order that you want.


To hide an app, turn it off.


Tap Done.


Use iMessage apps on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch

If you tap Edit on the manage screen, you'll be able to re-enable #images and add it to your favorites or change the order as you see fit.


Let us know if that helps.


Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.
