Restoring Message Shortcut on iPhone 4s - Help Needed!

In summary, to restore your message shortcut on your iPhone 4s, go to "Settings" > "General" > "Reset" > "Reset Home Screen Layout". If you accidentally deleted it, go to the "App Store" > "Search" > "Messages" > "Re-download". If it's missing, swipe or search for it. You can also customize its location by pressing and holding on the app. If it disappeared after an update, check for updates or re-download it from your "Purchased" tab.
