The possibilities are that either the Notes app was accidentally deleted from your iPhone OR accidentally removed from the Home Screen but still exists on your iPhone.

If the Notes app was accidentally deleted from your iPhone then you can open the App Store app and then download the Notes app again. If the Download button does not appear and the Open button appears then the Notes app is still on your iPhone and it needs to be placed back on your Home Screen. See below:

The Notes app was probably accidentally removed from the Home Screen, however, still exists in the App Library. The App Library is the last Home Screen on your iPhone when you continue to SWIPE LEFT until you reach it. Once you are in the App Library, then you can search and find the Notes app. Once found, then you can DRAG the app out of there and place it on your favorite spot of the Home Screen.
