See the 'How to add widgets to your Lock Screen' section in:

How to add and edit widgets on your iPhone - Apple Support

which also shows how to remove a widget.


If that doesn't help, the first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:
