    So this video was posted 7 months ago. Are there any updates on how to get rid of the "flex widget" label on the "transparent" widgets? Is there a way to customize the apps without having to go to/through the shortcuts app every time you click on your new app covers? Seems too clunky for me right now.

      No, as the dash essentially acts as the name of the app and thus widget. In the current IOS update, there is no way to remove names of widgets.
