Are we accepting this now? I just plugged my phone sideways on a stand and I got ads. Nice Apple, thank you.

      Smart stacks kept coming back on my phone. I’d delete it, put the one widget I want and the next day, Smart Stack. I do not want a Smart Stack, I do not want a stack at all. I just wanted clock and weather, every night it was all different.

      By automatically creating a Smart Stack and adding the AppStore, then ‘intelligent scroll’ to it, without user input, is pretty close to spamming ads.

        YES. That’s it. I never set it up, at some point it appeared without any prompt or asking anything. And if i complain about it i get downvoted to oblivion…

      By the way, that’s an ad. You can call it appstore widget but its promoting apps. Before it was showing that cancer inducing “game” of clash royale and i never installed a game on my iPhone.

      Anyway, the widget appeared by itself without asking me, and its primoting apps, that’s advertisement.
