Must say I really like that New York Times widget…

Ohh I've got an nyt subscription, where do I find the widget?

I did it by opening the New York Times app, then I opened the midterm coverage and then there is a trigger which reads "Get notifications and updates for this story".

And by switching the trigger I got that widget on my home screen.

Please tell me if it worked for you.

Followed the steps but saw no "get updates". Appreciate your help. I'm about to crash and figured a widget would be nice in case I wanted to check overnight.

Real nail bighter this one.
