Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why can’t I add a widget to the Home screen?
Make sure there’s enough empty space on the current screen. If not, try adding the widget to a different page.
2. Can I resize widgets in HyperOS?
Some widgets support resizing. After placing the widget, touch and hold it—if resizable, you’ll see handles or an option to resize.
3. Will removing a widget delete the app?
No. Removing a widget only removes the shortcut from the Home screen—the app remains installed and accessible from the app drawer.
