iOS 14 It has many fine features, and the possibility of adding widgets to the main screens / "home screen" is one of them.

Besides the applications with which iOS comes, in App Store There are many that support widgets. From calendar type applications, weather and music applications, finances and news.

Although theoretically, Apple's applications should run best on iOS, it only remains at the "theoretical" stage. Applications such as Reminders and Calendar They have problems in displaying data in widgets, and Apple has not solved this problem in the beta versions of iOS 14.5.
Specifically, when we set an application widget Calendar or Reminders, this one does not display any information and no cannot be edited. A problem that many iPhone users face and for whom Apple's official resolution apparently.

Reminders and calendar widgets will not start displaying data even if you restart iPhone or delete and add the widget again. However, I saw that there is a pretty fast method to solve this problem of Widgets that do not want to display data on the iPhone.

How do we do as calendate and reminders to display the data on iPhone / iOS

Most likely this problem arises due to a synchronization bug between Widget and iCloud or other reminder or calendar service.

1. We go on the iPhone in "Settings” → “icloud"(The first option above, where the username and profile picture appears).

2. Here we have a list of applications that use data synchronization in iCloud. We disable synchronization For applications ”Calendar"si"Reminder“.

When we deactivate the synchronization of the application in iCloud, at the bottom we are asked if the synchronized data will remain on the iPhone or be erased. We choose to be erased. "Delete from My iPhone"These will remain in iCloud and on other devices.

3. Close and reopen iPhone.

4. Go to one of the iPhone screens and add the reminder and calendar applications.

At this time the data in the Widget will be listed correctly.

Now is his time We reactivate synchronization in iCloud for calendar and reminder applications.

After reactivation, the events and the calendar and the reminders of Reminders will be synchronized. These will be displayed and will be updated in the widgets on the iPhone screens.

We hope Apple will solve this problem until the final version of iOS 14.5 is launched. A major update that will bring new interesting elements on iPhone and iPad (iPados).
