How do I prevent iPad from adding stacks and widgets?

Hi Kjhoran1,

We'd like to share some information to help you with Widgets. There is not a way to remove the ability to have them as this is part of the iPadOS, but if you look over Use widgets on your iPad - Apple Support, this will cover how to delete them and edit if needed. We hope this clarification and detail help.

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
