If your device is not correctly supported, you can provide me some data so I can update iEmpty for it and make it ready to generate empty icons and widgets.
This can occur when a new device or iOS version is released, because it often moves the icons and widgets positions.
For that, please send me some screenshots of your home screen with app icons and widgets everywhere on it, so I can measure precisely their positions.
Follow CAREFULLY ALL the procedures given below.
Repeat for EACH device you own if needed.
⚠️ Please send me your data ONLY if your device is not supported or if you have misaligned icons problems, so I won't spend time updating something that already works! 🙏🏻
Informations
Give me your EXACT device model and iOS version.

Prerequisites

Email sending
Send me ALL the screenshots you take by email, in their original FULL size (without any resize or modification).
If it is too big to attach them in the email, send a link to a file sharing system like iCloud Drive or Google Drive, or use the iOS Mail Drop feature.
Put application icons EVERYWHERE on the homescreen grid (one icon on EACH column and EACH row, including the dock).
This way I can measure precisely EACH possible icon position on the homescreen grid.
Take several screenshots of your homescreen, one for each possible orientations and layouts available for your device.
