I would expect these 2 widgets (Sensors and Custom Widget) to allow me to click them when editing the home screen. Currently clicking on them does not trigger anything.

**To Reproduce**
Try to add any widgets besides _Assist_ and _Open Page_. It starts out blank, and there doesn't seem to be any way to set it up so it is not blank.

**Expected behavior**
I expect there to be a way to specify the custom widget or sensors I would like to be displayed.

The _Open Page_ widget does behave as I would expect: showing me a menu when I click on the widget while in home screen edit mode.

**Screenshots**

I do have a custom widget defined in the app but I see no way to specify this is the one I want to display on the home screen.
The reload all widgets button does not do anything. Restarting the device did not help either.
