This seems to fly directly against recently articles about the massive uptick in iOS customisation after 14 launched. The #ios14homescreen hashtag on Twitter seems extremely popular: https://twitter.com/hashtag/ios14homescreen


How does it fly against it? To me it appears to say "well of course that's popular, the configurability gives users a sense of ownership over their device"


The post is from mid-2019. I think the development you mention tallies very well with how the post ends.


I remember having lots of fun with cheesy widgets like that on my first Android phone in 2011, nice to see the iOS folks catching on. Always thought that they were missing out!
