Android widget flexibility reduced?
-
I had a 3×1 Pocket Casts widget on my homescreen. I accidentally deleted it. When I went to add it back, I could drop in the default widget, which is 5×1. When I went to reduce it, I found I can now only reduce it to 4×1 at it’s narrowest.
Is there a way to get the 3×1 widget back?? My home screen layout doesn’t have space for the 4×1!

Hi there, @davidgregson7d0b756c03!
Our developers confirmed with me that we did not make any changes to our Widget options. That said, we have a new feature request opened to add support for more sizes to be added. We hope to have that added in a future update :)
I hope that this helps 👍

thanks, Joey. Idk why it’s suddenly restricted now then. Looking forward to the feature!

One possibility is that there may have been a change to your phone’s launcher. For example, on my phone, which uses the default Samsung launcher, I’m still able to resize the Pocket Casts widget to 3 x 1, as you can see below:
Added 1 x 1 widgets below for scale.
