Samsung Galaxy Note 8 (US-version) - widget now disappearing

[JGT1942]

Ever since I got the note 8 I've used the MyClockWidget without issue. Lately, it sorta disappears from my home screen. Following is what I see when it disappears.

Following is what I see when I press and hold on the area where the widget is located.

I'm attempting to include two images from my PC but it does not seem to be working and I have no idea what I'm doing wrong, if anything. The images are PNG files. I've clicked on the icon to insert an image, selected From Computer > Selected Choose File > selected image > clicked the Open button.

After NUMEROUS attempts I finally got the images uploaded.

Here's how to post an image (you can ignore the steps about taking a screenshot): http://forums.androidcentral.com/ge...ide-how-post-screenshots-android-central.html

Are you using the stock Samsung launcher, or a 3rd party one?

Also, I can't find an app called MyClockWidget in the Play Store -- are you sure it's still supported by the developer?

eeee it is MeClockWidget

I'm now uninstalling and reinstalling and ensuring I'm NOT using the SD card

BTW I'm posting in the forum using my PC.

I've got it reinstalled and I'm NOT using the SD card for storage. Recently in an attempt to free up the internal storage, I was moving apps to the SD card if I could. I had moved this app to the SD card. In another thread, I had started (https://forums.androidcentral.com/s...ersion-what-using-storage-space-my-phone.html) about using a lot of internal storage, mustang7757 stated that it would create issues.
I just posted that I could move the apps back to the internal storage and he suggested that I do so. Thus I will be moving all of my apps back to the internal storage. Possibly this created my issue with MeClockWidget.

Currently, it is working correctly. Obviously, it may be too short of a time lapse to say the issue has been resolved. If it does not reoccur by Monday I will consider it resolved. In the meantime, I will continue to move apps back to the internal storage.

If it's this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.androidmedia.mcw02, then keep in mind that the app hasn't been updated in 4 years. There might have been some incompatibility introduced with some subsequent update to Samsung or Google apps. You could try sending feedback to the developer, but again, since it hasn't been updated for so long, there's a good chance the dev won't respond.

Just keep pictures, video, document on the sd card but back them up just in case.
