How to add multiple photo widgets on iOS 14
Hey everyone in today's video. I want to show you how to add multiple photo widgets on your iPhone home screen. You're going to use an app to make this really simple. So let's go to the app store here and the app is called widget Smith. So get the app download and open it and I already deleted all the widgets that came with the default tab.
So you should see a small widget and medium-sized widget and a large widget. So you could have your photos show up in different sizes. I'm going to go ahead and press adds a small widget and now it should look like what your app looks like. All you have to do is press this square right here, and he will take you to this page and press it one more time.
Just a date here, press one more time, and here, if you go down, there's an option for custom photos. Let's select a custom photo right here, and you're not done yet on the very bottom. It says selected photo. You have to actually select the photo. So I'm going to press right on the bottom and choose a photo to put in here and I give it access to my camera library already.
So you have to do that to give it access to selected photos or all your photos. If you feel comfortable, I'm going to choose a picture and I could go ahead and go back here. You could tap on top to name this if you want. So I'm going to name this picture one and press save and I'm going to add a second widget.
So I'm going to say, add a small widget one more time and tap the date and tap this one more time and let's go back to photos one more time and on the bottom, select the photos, tap that and choose another photo, a different one and I'll go ahead and tap on top and label this pick two and press save. Now I have to, but I want to add a medium one too, just to mix up the sizes.
So I'll do that with a medium one, tap this box right here and let's go ahead and tap the default widget and add a photo one, one more time right here, photo and select the photo on the bottom and choose our photo or name. Just pick three and press save and press save one more time and now I have the three I want again, you could add a large one or as many as you want and mix it up that way.
Well, let's go ahead and start adding to our home screen. Now I'll show you here on a blank page, but you could do this on any page and it will just move your apps to the next page. I'll press and hold right here in the center in a blank area, not on top of an app and as long as you have iOS 14, you should get the plus sign.
So press the plus sign here and to get widget Smith. All you have to do is go to the very bottom of the page and you should see widget Smith. You can select it from here. Now I'm going to start with a small widget, so that's already selected I'll press and widget and to change this widget, I'll press on hold on it and press edit widget and right here, it says small to that's what select the buy-in to tap that and I need to choose one of my images. So pick one in this case, and now if I click away, you should update with that picture. There it is. Let's do it one more time, press and hold in the center of your screen. The plus sign all the way down to widget Smith and one more time, small and widget on the bottom and press done. Now I have to, again, press on hold on it edit the widget, press small. Number two again, and then choose the second pick. That's why it makes it a little bit easier to name your pictures here. Something more specific and click away and there you go.
Now we have two and the last one press on hold. Press the plus sign. Let's go to the bottom widget smith will choose the medium one and add the widget. This one, I'm going to move down actually underneath the other two. There you go and to choose that one press and hold on it, edit widget, tap medium.
Number one, and let's choose picture number three and click away, and there you go. That's how you add widgets on your iPhone home screen. I hope you found this useful.
