FAY2020 I have requested that this topic be syndicated to the PowerApps community as well - I think that means all replies will post in both communities and you'll get the PowerApps pros to help out too.

In the meantime, see if you can find the app you want to edit by typing:
https://make.powerapps.com/
into your browser URL. I find that I am often taken to the screen you have pasted in the screenshot when working in PowerApps but haven't found a good use for that screen yet, nor any way to navigate back to the app from there without starting fresh with the URL I posted above.

Hopefully the PowerApps community can give us some insight to make life easier on this screen, but in the meantime please let me know if the make.powerapps.com workaround helps.
