The reason why the app kicks you out is because you have the iOS 14 beta if your phone is acting up the way it should not be acting up that means that you should’ve waited until the iOS 14 update came out before you even got the beta because the beta will give your phone trouble and it wouldn’t let you get into certain things on your phone so with that being said you need to go to General on settings press profile and delete the iOS 14 beta profile and then after you go to General again press software updates and then that’s when you’ll see that I was IOS 14 update and it will tell you that it will update your phone but it will take overnight to process because it will not do it over 10 minutes...I hope this helps😇

Same with Color Widget, which I’m definitely thinking is a bug because I added a background picture to my Color Widget instead of having one of the default options (picture should be added). My mom doesn’t have a background picture for hers and the time seems to update perfectly fine, but whenever I notice the time is off on my widget, I have to manually go into the app and save the widget again to update the time. Kinda annoying :/

Building up on Jlintriestohelp's answer, what also worked for me was to delete the Widgetsmith widget and add it back again based on the steps laid out here.




It's also worth noting that the widget should be created in the Widgetsmith app first before you add it into your homescreen, otherwise for some reason it doesn't work. :(


Hopefully that helps. Let me know if it still doesn't work and I will try my best to help. Thanks!
