2. How stacked widgets work?
It is important to keep in mind that all future widgets you intend to stack will be automatically resized to fit the same area as the original widget. The first widget you place on the home screen leads to the size parameter for all subsequent stacked widgets.
Initiating Stacking:
To create stacked widgets, tap and hold the existing widget on the home screen. A menu will appear; select “Create stack” to begin the stacking process.
Selecting Widgets:
Choose the widgets you want to stack and tap “Add.” This will allow you to combine various Samsung and third-party widgets and it will create a customized and concise experience on your home screen.
Adding More Widgets:
You can expand your stacked widget by long-tapping the widget and selecting “Edit stack.” Here, you can add more widgets to the stack and decide whether you want the stack to rotate between widgets automatically.
You can also experiment with different widgets, and rearrange them within the stack according to your needs. This flexibility ensures a personalized and dynamic home screen for your Samsung Galaxy S23.
Stacked widgets offer users a seamless and organized way to access information. By following these simple steps, you can create a visually appealing and efficient home screen experience on your Samsung Galaxy S23.
