On an iPhone, “Utilities” isn’t a setting you turn on; it’s usually a folder where Apple groups some built‑in apps like Calculator, Voice Memos, and Compass.

Where the Utilities folder usually is

On most iPhones (iOS 14 and later), you’ll find it in one of these places:

  1. Home Screen pages
    • Unlock your iPhone.
    • Swipe left and right through your Home Screen pages.
    • Look for a folder named “Utilities” with a tools/gear‑style icon that looks like a little toolbox.
 * Tap it to open apps like Calculator, Voice Memos, Compass, and others.
  1. App Library
    • From the last Home Screen page, swipe left one more time to open the App Library.
 * Apps are auto‑grouped into categories (Productivity, Utilities, etc.).

 * Look for the “Utilities” group and tap it to see all the utility‑type apps.
  1. Search if you can’t see it
    • On the Home Screen, swipe down in the middle of the screen to open the search bar.
    • Type “Calculator”, “Voice Memos”, or “Compass”.
 * If those apps appear, you can:
   * Tap them directly to open, or
   * Long‑press the app icon in results and choose to “Add to Home Screen” or drag it into a new folder called “Utilities”.

If the Utilities folder seems “gone”

Sometimes the folder gets renamed or broken apart, but the apps still exist:

  • Check all folders on your Home Screen; “Utilities” might have been renamed but still has a tools‑style folder icon.
  • Use search to locate one of the apps and then:
    • Long‑press the app → drag it on top of another similar app (e.g., Calculator + Voice Memos) to create your own Utilities folder.
  • If you deleted a built‑in app (like Calculator), reopen the App Store, search for that app, and re‑download it.

Quick example: make your own Utilities folder

If you just want a fresh Utilities spot:

  1. Find “Calculator” using search.
  2. Long‑press its icon until it jiggles.
  3. Drag it onto “Voice Memos” (or any other tool app) to create a folder.
  1. Tap the folder name area and rename it to Utilities.

TL;DR: The Utilities folder is usually a toolbox‑looking folder on your Home Screen or an automatically grouped “Utilities” section in the App Library; if you can’t find it, use search and make your own folder.📱
