iPhone stacking widgets creates folders instead of moving them
Instead of stacking moving a widget on top of another creates a folder

iPhone 15, iOS 18
Not all widgets support stacking on iOS — but most Apple native widgets and many third-party app widgets do. To stack widgets, they must:
- Be the same size (small, medium, or large).
- Support stacking — some third-party widgets don’t, even if they’re the right size.
You’ll be able to stack Apple’s widgets like:
- Weather
- Calendar
- Reminders
- Photos
- Clock
- Fitness
- News
Third-party widgets are hit or miss, depending on how the developer implements them. If you drag a widget over another and it doesn’t stack, that’s usually because the app doesn’t support stacking yet.
