Fix a widget that is stale or broken
What the tile says
- "Updated" with a time: the data is older than expected.
- "Couldn't update": the last picture stays on screen while the tile tries again. It waits longer after each failure, up to 15 minutes.
- "This widget didn't start": choose Try Again.
Tiles stop refreshing while hidden or off screen. They resume when you come back.
Steps
- Choose Try Again if offered.
- Open the widget. A tap opens it as a full view.
- If it still fails, ask the employee that made it to fix it.
Earlier data
Earlier versions of a widget's saved data are kept, the newest 50 for each widget.
If it doesn't work
- Space members who are not the owner see a read-only copy that does not refresh by itself.
