<h2>FAQ</h2>
<div data-accordion="">
<h4>If I update my device to iOS 14, can I still use the old Todoist Today widget?</h4>
<p>Yes, you can! Even if you update your device to iOS 14 or above, you'll still be able to use the old Todoist Today widget.</p>
<h4>Can I change the color of my widget?</h4>
<p>Yes and no. You can't change the color of a widget on its own, but the widget will in most cases match the theme of your Todoist app (please follow <a href="https://get.todoist.help/hc/en-us/articles/205169851" target="_self">these instructions</a> to change your theme) unless you have <a href="https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT210332" target="_self">dark mode</a> enabled on your device. If you have dark mode enabled on your device, your widget will automatically match dark mode.</p>
