In Edit mode (when you see the "-" icon on the Clock widget), tap or double tap the Clock widget to access the cities list.

No longer able to edit Clock Widget in iOS 26 Since I downloaded iOS 26 the option to edit the Clock Widget to change the timezone is no longer available and it was previously available in iOS 18. I have attached an image of the current options that appear when long-holding the Clock Widget.

How do I change the clock widget time zone on my new iPad? I bought a new iPad 10 days ago . It's running 18.3.2. I can't get the clock face widget on the home screen to change to my time zone. It stays CUP. The date and time are correct in my settings. What else can I do ? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

World Clock Widget stuck on iOS18 I added the World Clock widget to my Lock Screen, but no matter what I do, I cannot change the cities in them. I have been looking for answers to this for days and all I find is from past iOS versions and none of it works for me. The best answer I found so far was: "From the Lock Screen, long press on the screen and choose customize. Tap on the World Clock widget and it'll bring up the "Add Widgets" tray. Tap on the World Clock again (the one on the lock screen, not the one in the tray that just came up) and it'll bring up a new window. Tap the cities to change which city is shown, use the hamburger buttons on the right side to rearrange." This seemed perfect, but after I change the cities on the new, small window that appears, there is no button to "ok", "set", "done", "confirm", nothing. So all I have left to do is click somewhere else to get out of that mini window, and it all goes back to the beginning, with the same pre-loaded cities on the widget. Anyone?
