I really like stackable widgets, it's great for saving space and having everything you need in way homescreen. 

Current:
The way stackable widgets work is you can stack the same size widgets with each other and swipe between them left to right or right to left. 


New suggestion:
I would love it if we can stack larger widgets based on top of the multiple smaller ones and move between them by swiping up and down. 
So a 4x2 widget to be stackable on to the widgets shown in the above screen recording, so you can swipe between multiple sized widgets by swiping up and down (or vice versa) and the same sized widgets by swiping left to right (or vice versa). If this was brought in as a goodlock feature or by default it would be fantastic. 

What do you guys think, useful?

      @NIBLIF: Thank you for your suggestion. I have gone ahead and passed your feedback to our Research and Development Team, who can explore the possibility of introducing this as an option in future One UI versions. As soon as I hear back from them, I will keep you posted.

      Hmm... wouldn't it become confusing, for some... ok, for me! 🤔

      Possibly. For me at least, I'd say the pros outweigh the cons. But hey, no harm in suggesting.

      It's never a bad thing to suggest ideas - that's how progression works I guess. 🤔👍

      Stackable widgets let you layer multiple phone widgets on top of a single home screen space, allowing you to swipe through them to save room and reduce clutter.

      I saw this on Google
      Thought it might be helpful

      This was not the question asked, op was asking about stacking  larger widgets based on top of the multiple smaller ones and moving  between them by swiping up and down.  This is currently not an option, anyway it has been passed on to the Development Team.
