ios 18.2 widgets not stacking since 18.2 update.

Since updating to iOS 18.2 widgets are not allowing stacking. Attempt to add new widget to stack results in the existing stack to jump away. Behavior only appears on iPhone 12 Mini and not my iPad.

iPhone 12 mini, iOS 18

Thank you for an informative reply.

This isn’t my first rodeo.

Prior to my initial post regarding the widget staking behavior I did complete all of the steps you outlined.

With that said I do appreciate your feedback!!!

It's not always the iOS update's fault!  Many things can cause phone problems.  If you tell people you think it's an iOS update, it might make it harder to fix or find a solution for the real issue.


Remember, the right question often leads to the solution!



iOS updates aim to enhance user experience, boost security, and fix bugs rather than disrupt core features. The majority of the issues after updates might stem from underlying, unmentioned factors. Updates won't typically alter personal data but may refine settings or features. Backup before major updates for safety. Review Apple's update details and backup advice for a smooth process.


Kindly consider checking your settings and addressing any device issues before attributing the issue to external factors. This could be a pure coincidence that the iOS update affected the iPhone functions.


Before initiating a standard iOS update, it's advisable to create a backup. Have you completed this step? If yes, proceed with the restoration from the backup.
