Contacts widget in iOS 15

Hi! On my contacts widget, when I try to put on on my homescreen, it shows up as just blank and doesn’t let me put a contact on it. My other contact widgets show contacts though. What do I do? I’ve hard restarted my iPhone and the problem is still here, I’m running iOS 15.1.

Greetings pilot_20, 


We understand that when trying to add the Contacts widget to your Home Screen the set up screens are blank. 


The screenshot you sent is of the screen where you can add the widget. Does the widget still appear blank after it has been added? How about if you try to add it on the Today View screen, instead of your Home Screen?


Thanks.

pilot_20, 


You mentioned when you try to add the widget it shows up blank. Does it remain blank after you have gone through the process of adding it and widget is on your Home Screen or in Today View? Or is it only blank in these screens where you walk through adding it and choosing which version of the widget you want?


Thank you.
