YouTube app somehow disappeared from my iPhone 5

[Vell843]

Ok so I did the YouTube app update today, but I just noticed that the YouTube app is not in my iPhone 5 anymore. I went to App Store and tried to redownload to my phone but, all I have is the open option and when I press that nothing happens. Now I consider myself pretty iPhone/iOS savvy and I have already done a hard and soft reset of my device. Any other suggestions?

Search for the app in Spotlight.

Is it there?

If yes, comb through all of your folders. I don't mean to insult your intelligence but...you know how these things can be.

Yes searched spotlight and I only have two folders on my phone.

Plug it to itunes and either sync it back or remove it first with itunes and then sync it back.

That's weird. I updated both my iPhone 5 and iPad 3 and everything's fine.

Never hear this kind of problem before, must be some kind of bug or something. Re-download again?

It will not even allow me to redownload since all store is saying that I already have it installed.

Did you try what I suggested above?

Or even a simple restart?

Took someone's advise from earlier and plugged into iTunes, removed and synced and then reinstalled. I do appreciate all of the help from everyone!!
