Bug reports are much easier to act on with your iPhone model, your iOS version, which widget and size you were using, and a screenshot.

Common questions

How do I add a widget to my Home Screen?

Touch and hold an empty spot on the Home Screen until the icons jiggle, tap the plus button in the corner, search for Calendar Widgets Suite, then choose a widget and a size and tap Add Widget.

How do I change a widget’s size?

Touch and hold the widget until the icons jiggle, then drag the handle at its lower-right corner until it is the size you want and tap Done. Your settings carry over. Only the sizes that widget supports are offered, so if the one you are after does not appear, remove the widget and add that size from the widget gallery instead.

My widget is empty, or is missing events.

Two things to check. First, calendar permission: open Settings → Privacy & Security → Calendars and make sure Calendar Widgets Suite is allowed. Second, calendar selection: open Calendar Widgets Suite, tap Select Calendars, and confirm the calendar you expect is selected. If nothing is selected, all calendars are shown.

My widget is not updating.

iOS controls when Home Screen widgets redraw and budgets those refreshes, so a change can take a few minutes — occasionally longer — to appear. Merely opening Calendar Widgets Suite does not hurry that along, but saving does: open the widget’s editor, change any setting, and tap Save. Every widget is asked to redraw immediately. If one still looks stuck, remove it and add it again, or restart the iPhone.

How do I undo my styling changes?

Each widget editor has a Reset to defaults option that restores that widget type’s original look without touching your other widgets.

Can I request a feature?

Please do — email admin@joshuanco.com. Requests that come with a description of what you were trying to do tend to get built first.

Privacy

Calendar Widgets Suite reads your calendar on the device and sends nothing anywhere. The details are on the privacy policy page.
