I had the same issue unfortunately (along with the disappearing keyboard :-). I have an iPhone 11 Pro Max
I opened Apple Store and searched for one of the installed apps I had in my lost folder - say appX - and clicked Open as if to start using it . Then I just closed it and suddenly my missing folder reappeared with all the other apps in it .
