If you’re like most people, you probably use Notification Center to keep track of important notifications and schedule tasks. But if you want to resize widgets in Notification Center, there are a few things you need to know. First, the size of a widget in Notification Center is determined by its dimensions. So if your widget is only 1 inch wide and 1 inch high, it will be displayed at the top-left corner of your screen. If your widget is 2 inches wide and 2 inches high, it will be displayed at the top-right corner of your screen. Second, there are a few different ways to resize widgets in Notification Center. The first way is to drag and drop a widget from one side of the screen to the other. The second way is to select a widget and then press Command-Option-V (or Option-Command-V on Macs with Yosemite or later). This will open up a dialog box where you can choose how much space you want to give thewidget on your screen. The third way is to use the System Preferences app on your Mac. In System Preferences, click on the General tab and then click on Widgets. In this window, you’ll see all of the widgets that are currently installed on your computer. You can drag and drop any of these widgets into Notification Center so that they’ll be resized according to their dimensions.
Mac users who are running macOS Big Sur or newer have access to the unified Notification Center which shows notifications and widgets on the same page. The widgets that you see on the iPhone home screen will be available here as well.
But unlike on the iPhone and iPad, you can actually resize widgets that you’ve already added to the Notification Center. On your iPhone or iPad, you need to remove the old widget instead. This feature works for any widget that comes in different sizes (for both first-party and third-party apps).
On your Mac, click the Time and Date button in the top-right corner of the screen (next to the Control Center) to open the Notification Center.
From here, you can scroll up to see all of the widgets.
By default, you’ll see widgets from stock Apple apps, but you can also add more widgets for supported third-party apps. To do this, click the “Edit Widgets” button found at the bottom of the Notification Center (Read our complete guide to using Notification Center widgets to learn more.).

Now, find the widget that you want to resize and then right-click it.
From the “Size” section, choose the “Small,” “Medium,” or “Large” option.
And that’s it, your widget is now resized!
