Widget screen

After latest update, the widget screen intrudes on any open app if I turn the orientation to landscape on iPhone 11 Pro.

Thanks for your reply. I found a discussion of this same topic from October 2020. The solution then was to restart the iPhone. I tried it and it worked for me this time. This had just started happening since I upgraded to IOS 14.4.1. Thirty-eight years ago, the solution to all problems was to reboot. Don't know why I still forget that these days!

If you have Widgets configured on your Home Screen, you cannot use Landscape mode.

You can only do that in an open app (Notes, Photos, Messages, ...) that supports it.
