Ever downloaded something on your iPhone and then...poof! Disappeared? Don't worry, it's not gone forever. Unlike desktop computers, iPhones don't have a dedicated 'Downloads' folder easily accessible on the home screen.
So, where *do* your downloads go? The answer depends on the file type and the app you used to download it.
* **Safari Downloads:** If you downloaded a file using Safari, it's likely saved in the **Files app**. Open the Files app and check the 'Downloads' folder within 'iCloud Drive' or 'On My iPhone'.
* **App-Specific Downloads:** Some apps, like email clients or document editors, save downloads within their own internal storage. Check the settings or file management section of the specific app.
* **Media Files (Photos, Videos):** These usually go directly to your Photos app.
Pro Tip: If you still can't find your download, try searching for the file name using the search bar within the Files app or the app you used to download it. Happy hunting!
