My MIL called asking why her Iphone x can't open icloud. I couldn't figure out what she was talking about so I went over there.

When she brings up SETTINGS, at the very top is her name and the description of
Apple ID, iCloud, media & purchases.

But it is gray and she can't click on it.

Her husband died last week and his old phone is able to click on it. (so she is in a funk and can't recall all she has done).

The only thing I saw was that she updated to IOS 15.1 recently.

But I can't figure out how to fix it if I can't even click on her name to get to her account.

Any ideas?
 
If there is an apple store within 100 miles of my mother in law, I’m sending her there for iPhone tech support, lol.

Why didn't I think of that?

Actually, that is the first thing I did, but I did it again and found a youtube video that explained it.
