Go back to my question iPhone User profile for user: dhenri99 dhenri99 Author User level: Level 1 28 points Widgets come out all Black

Since I have updated to IOS 14, when I attempt to put add a widget to the phone I get many Black Boxes instead of views of the widget.

Any help on this?

I did a complete restart of the phone and have found that most widgets are appearing correctly.

I have not had a problem with the Apple Watch.

Just bought a new Apple 11 Phone and after the phone upgraded to IOS14 the "add widget" function (using the "+" function on the widget edit page) just shows blank/ black widgets that once inserted on the widget page are still black. Note: the pages are black on the widget page but are active and take you to the full content if you click on them.

Seems like a programing glitch in IOS14 that needs to be fixed
