How do I get apps back on the home screen there were in a widget I removed?
I was moving an app on my home screen and a widget got created. Why? I have no idea. The widget contained the app I was trying to move and another app. I was able to remove the widget, but now neither app is on the home screen.
Then I saw these instructions:
Edit your widgets
With iOS 14, you can configure your widgets. For example, you can edit the Weather widget to see the forecast for your current location or a different location. Here’s how:
- Touch and hold a widget to open the quick actions menu.
- Tap Edit Widget .
- Make your changes, then tap outside of the widget to exit.
Problem is when I touch and hold the widget to open the quick actions menu, there is no option to "edit."
Just Rename, Edit Home Screen, Remove Folder
Remove widgetsÂ
- Touch and hold the widget that you want to remove.
- Tap Remove Widget.
- Tap Remove again to confirm.
What is the difference between "Touch and hold the widget that you want to remove" and "Touch and hold a widget to open the quick actions menu"?
How do I get those two apps back on the home screen?
