Hi Sieghard. As I said in my post, i'd perused all of her home screens, including a variety of folders, and I used Spotlight Search, with no luck. So I did a Google search to see why it might be missing and how to get it back. As the following article will show, I think she turned on restrictions and disabled facetime. I did the same on my phone and, sure enough, facetime disappeared. Removing the restriction brought it back on my phone, but I had to put it back into my Extras folder where I'd stashed it. Here's the article that I found.
Find a missing FaceTime app If you can’t find the FaceTime app on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, these steps can help. To find or restore a missing FaceTime app on your device, follow these steps: Make sure your device supports FaceTime. FaceTime isn’t available or might not appear on devices purchased or used in Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, and Pakistan. Search for the FaceTime app in Spotlight. In Settings > General > Restrictions, make sure that FaceTime and Camera are on. If your Camera restriction is on, you won’t be able to use FaceTime. Update your device to the latest version of iOS. Still can't find the FaceTime app? If you still can’t find the FaceTime app, back up your device using iTunes or iCloud, then restore your device. After you restore the device, set it up by selecting your region and language. Then, restore the data using the iTunes or iCloud backup.
