No. On the first page of my home screen , above the icons, there are two widget stacks. One starts with weather, one starts with photos. They take up a lot of screen space. Do you have them or remove them? I think they are called smart stacks but I am not sure.
OP is talking about Smart Stacks where you can create a scrollable stack of widgets.
Thanks Robert. Do they draw down battery? They take up a lot of room and not sure I should keep them.
Whenever I set up a new iPhone running iOS 14 and newer, I always remove the widgets whether Smart Stacks or not...
I wish the home screen was back like it was on iOS 13 and older... Or give us an option of icons only or icons plus widgets...
I also wish for the same thing to happen on iPadOS... Although some may be okay to have widgets on the home screen due to a bigger display on an iPad compared to an iPhone...
I also don't see the need for the last screen, the App Library... There should also be an option to disable that... It's not useful to me...

Thanks. I went from a 13 PM to a 15Pro. Visually the 13PM was easier to see regarding text but i had serious hand pain with the PM. Not at all with the 15Pro although i hate the trade-off.
I don’t use them because I find they completely fly in the face of the point of a widget. Maybe now that they’re interactive I should try again.
I use them and very much like them. I had them on 12 pro and have them on iPad Pro 7. It saves room and I haven’t noticed any unusual battery drain.
My first Smart Stack has 6 items, my second only has photos rotating through my favorites.
Hope that helps
Not me. I like the way it is. However, every individual has their own preference. 😊
