News widget not working on iOS 14

Hi - I had same problem and looking through how beta users solved this, I found this worked.

• remove the widget
• delete the News app
• download News app from app store
• open news app
• add the widget

......should work perfectly!! 🌟

Running iOS 14.1 on iPhone 12 Pro. I have the same issue, uninstalled and reinstalled the news app multiple times along with the widget. It used to work but suddenly stopped. Shows “no stories” in my Smart Stack

I have the same problem but i have IOS14.2 although the news stories can be seen when you click on any story it closes down the app , I've tried deleting it and re-installing straight from apple store but it doesn't make any difference it still doesn't work everything else seems to be working OK it's only apple news that i seem to have a problem with .

iPhone 7Plus

Cancelled my apple news subscription. After updating my IOs and more than one frustrating hour of tinkering with the home screen, I simply cannot get this News widget to appear on the home screen. Really disappointed!

Yep that works a treat. Pity I have to fo this on each and every device I have. Makes you wonder why they bother beta testing....

Same problem here and I agree. $2500 for a phone that’s been full of glitches since day one.

Anyone else experiencing slow/delayed/stalled reaction to the keyboard ?

Only had to delete the app and reinstall to fix it. Removing the widget appears to be an unnecessary step.

Mine doesn’t work. I tried ur step but still, not getting news widget.

Just deleting news app automatically deleted the widget for me. When I redownloaded the app the widget began working. Thank you!
