News widget missing

Did you follow the steps in the "Add or remove Widgets in the Today View" section of:

Use Widgets on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support

My news widget disappeared after updating my phone

I assume this happened right after updating to iOS 10.2.1. See this thread:

I am from India news Widget not working says no stories, can any one help me out how to fix this

I was having this problem (iPhone 5c with iOS 10.2.1 in Italy) and Apple Support provided to me a step-by-step procedure to fix this issue:

1. Open Settings → General → Language & Region, switch Region to United States and confirm.
2. Wait for iOS to apply the change then open the Notification Center, touch the Search field, press Cancel (you don't need to type anything) and close the Notification Center.
3. Open Settings app → General → Language & Region, switch Region back to your country name and confirm.
4. Wait for iOS to apply the change then open the Notification Center, touch the Search field, press Cancel (you don't need to type anything) and close the Notification Center.
5. You should see the News widget again.

I updated my software and my news it's not ther in my wedges any more

How can I get it back please??

Not helpful at all because I can't find the option to add news!!
