iPad users can enhance their Home Screen experience by incorporating widgets, which provide useful information and data directly on the device's Home Screen. With the latest iPadOS versions, widgets can be placed anywhere on the iPad Home Screen, allowing for a personalized and functional layout.

Widgets are available from various built-in apps and third-party applications. They offer diverse functionalities such as displaying weather updates, calendar events, unread emails, clocks or world time, sports scores, cryptocurrency prices, brokerage account balances, photo galleries, Find My devices and contacts, RSS feeds, and more.

Let’s explore how you can utilize widgets on your iPad’s Home Screen with any modern iPadOS version, including 14, 15, or newer iterations.

How to Add Widgets to Home Screen of iPad

Adding and arranging widgets on the iPad Home Screen is straightforward. If you've previously added widgets to an iPhone, you'll find the process similar on iPad, though there's more screen space and different orientation options.

1. Access the iPad Home Screen

2. Press and hold on the Home Screen until icons begin to wiggle

3. Click the icon located in the upper left corner to add a widget

4. Browse through the list to find the desired widget

5. Select the widget you wish to place on the iPad Home Screen and click ‘Add Widget’

6. Position the widget where you'd like it on the iPad Home Screen; other icons and widgets will adjust around it

7. Repeat the process to add additional widgets if desired

You have the option to fill your iPad Home Screen with numerous widgets or simply use one or two, depending on your preference.

Widgets can also be spread across multiple Home Screens, so they don’t all need to reside on one screen.

Depending on your preferences, there are countless widget options suitable for iPad (and iPhone). Some popular choices include the weather widget, calendar widget, NetNewsWire RSS feed widget, WidgetSmith with its many customization options, personal photo albums, Notes app widget, and clock app widget. The range of available widgets for iPad is vast, and those that work on iPhone are compatible with iPad as well.

Removing a Widget from the iPad Home Screen

Removing a widget is simpler than adding one:

1. Locate the widget you want to remove
2. Tap and hold on the widget
3. Choose “Remove Widget”

Moving a Widget on the Home Screen of iPad

Once the widgets are in edit mode, you can rearrange them by tapping and holding on the iPad Home Screen until icons and widgets start jiggling, then moving the widget similarly to how you'd move an app icon.
