 Description   

My daughter had Minecraft PE installed on iPhone and over the past year created 8 worlds, possible 100's of hours of effort gone into it. On 26th Oct new version 0.16.1 was updated. However, when she opened Minecraft PE after the update and opened her world it wouldn't generate the world and crashed out of the app.
Then today she saw that the app was no longer installed, it deleted itself?.
We downloaded the app from the AppStore however when we open the app there are no worlds listed, it looks like it is a fresh install with no history whatsoever of what was there beforehand.
We need to be able to get the worlds back.

Do you have a recent back-up of the device? You could try restoring that. Be quick as the back-ups generally overwrite the last one but depending on your set-up (eg on a Mac, Time machine or a clone) you could retrieve an older one. Google will tell you how to find the right files. Good luck. You can in future acces the individual worlds for separate back-up via apps like iMazing.
