How to remove the - sign under widgets

Apple has repeatedly rejected builds without a widget name. To get approved, we’ve temporarily added a small “-” beneath each widget name. You can remove it by switching to Large Mode. See detailed instructions by tapping here.

How do I get started?

Download the Blank Spaces app from the App Store and add the widget to your home screen to get started. For detailed video tutorials on how to get started, please tap here.

Widget

I don't see the widget.

The widget is at the top of the list and has the Blank icon [-] and no name. If you don’t see it, please also try restarting your phone.  For a comprehensive guide on the widgets, please tap here.

The widget / background isn’t centered on my home screen.

Add a medium Blank widget at the top and the large Blank widget at the bottom. Turn off Perspective Zoom in Settings.

How do I stack widgets?

Drag large widgets on top of each other to stack them. If you’re having issues, that may be a bug in iOS. A workaround is to create a Smart stack and then add the Blank widgets into it.

The widget is broken or unresponsive.

Try restarting your phone. If you are still having problems, delete and reinstall the app. Please feel free to contact us at ask@blankspaces.app for additional support.
