I'm having a similar issue - the News widget is loading fine but the Maps Transit widget is just blank on my iPad mini 4. I have 4 lines in the Boston region favorited and the widget is working fine on my 6s. Can't figure it out, but maybe our issues are somehow related?
This has worked for me. Remove the news widget. Then delete the news app. Go to App Store search for news. Download it. Open app. Then re-add widget. Hope it works for you.
I deleted the app and now cannot find it in the app store
it's in the US apps store.
I am in NYC, it's not showing up in the app store on my iPhone or on iTunes on my laptop. So odd. Even when I go to it via a direct link from google, it just opens the homepage of the app store.
If I screwed you up, I apologize. It did work for me. Hopefully there is just an App Store snafu going on tight now.
No, I was using it wrong. I thought I had deleted it but I had actually had hidden it in restrictions which was my workaround to hide some apps back in iOS9. A whole lot of arm waving for something I did to myself.
For anyone having issues like this with other widgets, I just wanted to point out that deleting the Maps app didn't work for me to get the Transit widget up and running again, so maybe the issues were seeing originate with the feeder apps themselves and aren't just a display issue with the widgets pane.
