Hi!

Does anyone know if there is a way to hide/remove the old widgets page. even if i put no widgets on it, i can still swipe left on the home screen or lock screen and it has nothing but an "edit" button, seems odd. I wondered if I was missing something obvious, if I'm not the only one thinking this is daft, I will drop apple some feedback.

Regards,
Jonathan

Currently you cannot disable it and you are not the only one https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/why-cant-i-turn-off-the-today-panel.2351156/
 
I agree and it's such an easy fix, just needs a toggle in Settings just like how you can turn App Library on and off.

As it currently is there are 3 places for widgets which is just a mess, the Lock Screen, the left panel and the Home Screen.
