Unable to Remove Widgets Home Screen Page

Hi,


I just bought a new iPhone SE II which uses iOS 13, and i am currently configuring and arranging it for myself.


One issue i am facing is that i desire upon unlocking of iPhone to only have 1 home screen page for all my apps (i normally keep limited apps). But i am getting a default "Widgets" page when i slide left of my home screen. I would like to remove this page, and i have tried a lot to to remove it but i cannot.


Can someone please guide me if it is possible?


Thanks,


Faizan


iPhone SE, iOS 13

You can't remove that. --> Use widgets on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple ...


Disable Today View on your Lock Screen

  1. Open Settings and Tap Touch ID & Passcode.
  2. Enter your passcode when prompted.
  3. Under Allow Access When Locked , Disable Today View.



Add or remove widgets in the Today View

You can add and remove widgets and even reorder them so your favorite ones are at the top.

  1. Swipe right over the Home screen or Lock screen.
  2. Scroll to the bottom and tap Edit.
  3. To add a widget, tap . To remove a widget, tap . To reorder your widgets, touch and hold  next to the apps and drag them in the order that you want.
  4. To finish, tap Done.

With an iPad on iPadOS, using the More apps Home Screen layout, you can even save your Widgets so that they always stay on your Home screen. Follow steps 1 and 2, turn on Keep on Home Screen, then tap Done.

To see the Batteries widget, your device must be connected to another supported Bluetooth device or accessory.
