You can edit iPhone widgets directly from your Home Screen in just a few simple steps.
Here's how to edit your iPhone widgets:
- Go to the Home Screen: Navigate to the screen containing the widget you wish to modify.
- Touch and Hold: Press and hold on the widget until the quick actions menu appears.
- Select Edit Option:
- For Standard Widgets: Tap "Edit Widget."
- For Smart Stacks: Tap "Edit Stack." Smart Stacks are collections of widgets that rotate automatically.
- Choose Options: The available options will vary depending on the widget. You can typically customize aspects like:
- Location: For weather or map widgets.
- Information Displayed: For news or stocks widgets.
- Size (for some widgets): While you can't typically resize widgets within the edit menu, you can choose from pre-set sizes when adding the widget initially.
- Smart Rotate (for Smart Stacks): Toggle Smart Rotate on or off, allowing the stack to automatically show the most relevant widget based on time of day or usage.
- Tap Done: Once you've made your desired changes, tap "Done" in the upper-right corner to save them.
Example:
Let's say you have a Weather widget displaying the weather for the wrong city. You would:
- Touch and hold the Weather widget.
- Tap "Edit Widget."
- Tap the city name to change it.
- Enter your desired city.
- Tap "Done."
Your Weather widget will now display the weather for the correct location.
