Hi, I just unpacked an iPhone and I noticed this weird widget that was pre-added to my home-screen. Looks like it is ads! Is this a new normal behavior for Apple?

Not normal behavior. It’s clear it’s at least a used phone since it has a screen protector and is a pre-iPhone 12 body. Just do a complete system reset on it.

BTW, it's an iPhone 12

I applied the screen and the glass cover. It is new.
