My Structured Widget Is Missing, Blurry, or Empty

Sometimes Structured doesn’t show up as a widget option in your widget gallery, or the widgets are not updating, meaning, they appear blurry or empty.

This issue is commonly caused by iOS, since Apple stopped background sync for widgets. Hence, updating the widgets sometimes gets stuck or stops when not using the app frequently. However, with Structured version 4.1.0 we have introduced some widget performance improvements. Please whether your Structured app is up-to-date before checking the following troubleshooting.

If you don't see the Structured widgets as an option in your list of widgets, check the following:

• Ensure that your Structured app and iOS are up to date.

• You can also try to restart your device.

• As a last resort, you could try to delete and reinstall the Structured app. Please ensure to create a Backup before doing so, as this step might delete all of your data in Structured.

If your Structured widget appears empty, not displaying any information, there are some steps you can try out to address this shortcoming:

• First of all, ensure that your Structured app and iOS are up to date.

• You can also try to delete the widget, restart your device and re-add the widget.

• Add a smaller widget and check off one of your tasks in the small widget. This should trigger an update on all of your other widgets as well.

• Alternatively, you can try to edit one of your current tasks on the widget and see if the widget is updating now.

• Usually, only the large widgets are affected by the issue. Therefore, we suggest adding a medium-sized or small widget, until Apple resolves the issue on their end.

Another approach to resolve the issue with blurry or not updating widgets is our Structured Cloud sync, as a more reliable and faster alternative to the iCloud sync. You can learn how to enable Structured Cloud sync here below the iCloud sync section: How to Sync Structured Across Your Devices.
