I have an iPhone 6s and iPad mini 4. I recently updated both to ios 11.3.1. After the update, the News widget is missing from my iPad but not missing from my iPhone. This is very frustrating. How can I fix this problem? I am located in Ireland.
iPad Mini Wi-Fi, iOS 11.3.1

Hi everyone,
I was able to solve the issue on my phone in three steps.
1. Turn off app unloading (Settings ā>
iTunes & AppStoreā>OffloadUnused Appsā> turn this off)
2. Change region/language to US
(Settings->generalā>language ®ionā>change both to United States)
3. Phone will take a minute to change this setting and then the News app should be visible with all your other apps. Click it to download it and then make sure the widget is there. You will see US headlines (CNN, Fox, etc).
4. Change region/language settings back to whatever you want
This worked for me. I hope it helps!
I canāt even understand why must they diss the news widget that is so important for me because every day without a miss, I will read the news from the widget and it is a very helpful widget. I hope the news widget will be back in iOS 12.
Sigh. I too am having the same issue. I think it has to do with the fact that we are using Canadian Apple accounts. Which is absolutely ridiculous. I am unable to find the news widget in the app store. Apple not cool. What is the solution?
Ok, so I had the same issue. The option to automatically uninstall unused apps. Or put them to the cloud. Got rid of my app, or widget on my iPhone and I used it all the time.
I do have a solution, so slide it over to the left. And you will see a search option. Search for ānewsā you will see in top hit. A red icon called news, click it and it will say itās not installed and will download in the background, And bam! It will be back on your screen.
Hope this helps everyone
Canadian here. IPad mini 4 and iPhone 6. IOS 11.4.1. I used to have the News widget on my iphone but it disappeared. Must have been with an update. Iāve done everything suggested here on both devices, three times, and still canāt find the red news widget anywhere including the app. store or using the search bar. Both devices set to U.S. Offload unused apps toggled off. How do I find the red news app? Any further ideas?
This is zero help. I don't even have the option to re add the widget. Why can't you guys just leave things the way they are?! I can't download it from the app store. Absolute garbage.
Four steps*
