apple news widget missing ios 14

I fixed it with the following steps ( my screenshots are in Italian😃):

1) Select Modify on the bottom of the page Widget

2) Click on the on the “+” on the top of the page

3) Search for the News

4) Select how you want to see the widget scrolling on the left (1 news, 2 news, many news )

I have finally worked it out.

How to add the news Widget.

Click on edit then the + sign top right and then add the news widget, this alone wont work. it will then ask you what you would like to see scroll across to show top stories.

Hey presto

Just change the Region to USA and download the app, then change it again to your own region and you are good to go 😜

After browsing a bit, I noticed that Apple states that, and I quote, "The Apple News app is available in Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Learn what's available in your country or region." This is taken directly from https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202329.

This might explain why users like myself are not able to get the app on their devices, since I am not in any of those countries. So my question now is whether or not Apple has any future predictions regarding when will Apple News be available to a wider range of countries.

In the meantime, if anyone has any News Widget recommendation for iPadOS, please say it.

If you've lost the News widget and your iOS language isn't English, do so. Go to Settings -> General -> Language & Region -> Select English as Language -> Select UK or US as Region. 

Go to the App Store and type News widget in the search box. Look for the big red “N” in Newsie - Trending News. Install the program. Now go left to Widgets. Press the area and edit. Press the “+ sign”. Now the News widget should be enabled again. Finally, select your language and country from the settings.

mcallister129,

Thanks for getting back to us and for verifying that information.

We recommend to contact Apple Support to review this further for you. You can contact Apple Support through this link here: Get Support

Cheers.

i finally deleted the apple news bec it has not resolved after update IOS 14.3! i DL the news break and got the best widget right there. im happy now. looks like apple ppls not really pay attention to our plms with apple news widget! unfortunately i deleted apple news. again, the app news is "news break" see pic

Yes, it is strange, but the News app is not supported in Europe and this is the only way to work.

I am a loser switched to Incompetent Apple few years back! Whatever they can not fix they call it feature and

easy use API! LOL.

I was also beta user of ios14 on my iPhone 11 pro. I have same issue. I tried all the tricks listed here, none works.

Still no News widget. I even hard reset (mistake!) thinking god knows what else I am missing. Still did not

fix it. No News widget! I just updated to ios14.2, still no News Widget!

On top of it I filed closed to 30 bugs, none of which are fully fixed in 3 months I tested this half (may be less) baked,

fully rushed ios14 which barely provide anything new.

They added wonderful Automation which can automate most useless things and few useful things which only work

halfway!

Such a shame!

I did the same, but there’s another problem there. It won’t take you to the summary of news for everything you follow (I follow CNN, BBC, Politico, etc). For some reason after this update - it defaults me to Fashion topic and doesn’t allow me to switch out of it.

every time I open my iPhone now, I see the latest trends of fashion and some news about Kardashians instead of something more important.

I don’t understand why it’s taking so long for Apple to fix this issue.

Is there any solution to this problem already? I have a 2020 iPad w/ iPadOS 14.3 and the Apple News app is nowhere to be found! This seems like a major issue that has been going on for a few months now and still hasn’t been dealt with!

So in the Netherlands a bunch of people do have the widget even though the Netherlands isn’t currently supported.

A lot of people don’t have it either and are unable to get it as the News app isn’t available.

How does Apple explain this?

I Miss the News Widget on My phone!
