Unable to edit WAB online application

[FranklinAlexander]

I have an old Web AppBuilder application that we are deprecating and would like to add a Splash Screen to direct traffic to a newer version of the app. The app was built in Web AppBuilder Online and about 2 months ago I made a copy of the app and added a Splash Widget to the copy. The changes were approved and now I need to apply the changes to the production app, but I do not get an option to edit the application.

I am also not getting an option to edit the copy that I WAS able to edit as described above. I own both applications and I have editing permissions. I am able to edit all other applications, WAB and EB. Can anyone let me know what I might be missing??

I'm guessing you have missed the deadline for editing existing WAB apps. See this blog post

Hi @FranklinAlexander, Have you tried checking out Web Editor & the new Isntant Apps template? It is in Beta but there's a lot of easy, configurable controls to customize and editing application. I'd recommend taking a look

@SteveCole , Yes, but the deadline isn't until the first quarter of next year and I am still able to edit other WAB apps. 

@bbollin. Haven't found a good solution editing the Web Map using the Map Viewer or the Web Editor. I tried to create a pseudo splash widget in the web map by 1st creating a feature layer in ArcPro (basically a polygon in shape of rectangle), added a label and published to ArcGIS Online. Then added the layer to the Web Map that my app is using. The problem I have now is there is no way to add a working hyperlink to the label. Unfortunately this is important because we need to re-direct traffic to the new application so there has to be a clickable link. Open to any other ideas.

Ok, I finally figured it out. For some reason I had to go to the Details page and click the 'Configure' button. I don't have to do that for any other EB or WAB apps, so was just confused.
