Unable to get iPhone widgets on Mac desktop

I'm running the official release of Sonoma on my macbook air m2, and the latest iOS on my iPhone (17.0.2). Yesterday I set up my mac desktop with some widgets from my iPhone (e.g. Google Calendar), that worked well but today I noticed the widgets from my iPhone had gone from my desktop. When I go into the edit widgets function none of the iPhone widgets show up, despite the setting to use iPhone widgets being turned on in System Settings. I've tried turning this on and off, restarting laptop and phone but nothing works. I contacted Apple Support about this and they just kept directing me to the articles telling me how to use widgets which didn't help. Has anyone else encountered this issue and if so is there any kind of fix or workaround that you know of?!


Thanks in advance.

MacBook Air, macOS 14.0
