iOS 14 Widget not update - ios

Question

I'm trying to build an IOS 14 Widget, that updates every two minutes. This is the widget code:
import WidgetKit
import SwiftUI
import Intents
struct SimpleEntry: TimelineEntry {
let date: Date
let configuration: ConfigurationIntent
}
struct Provider: IntentTimelineProvider {
func placeholder(in context: Context) -> SimpleEntry {
SimpleEntry(date: Date(), configuration: ConfigurationIntent())
}
func getSnapshot(for configuration: ConfigurationIntent, in context: Context, completion: #escaping (SimpleEntry) -> ()) {
let entry = SimpleEntry(date: Date(), configuration: configuration)
completion(entry)
}
func getTimeline(for configuration: ConfigurationIntent, in context: Context, completion: #escaping (Timeline<Entry>) -> ()) {
let entry1 = SimpleEntry(date: Date(), configuration: configuration)
let timeline = Timeline(entries: [entry1], policy: .after(Date().addingTimeInterval(2*60.0)))
print("timeline: \(timeline)")
completion(timeline)
}
}
struct TeamWidgetEntryView : View {
#Environment(\.widgetFamily) var family
var entry: Provider.Entry
#ViewBuilder
var body: some View {
switch family {
case .systemSmall:
SmallView(date: Date())
case .systemMedium:
MediumView()
case .systemLarge:
LargeView()
default:
Text("Some other WidgetFamily in the future.")
}
}
}
#main
struct TeamWidget: Widget {
let kind: String = "TeamWidget"
var body: some WidgetConfiguration {
IntentConfiguration(kind: kind, intent: ConfigurationIntent.self, provider: Provider()) { entry in
TeamWidgetEntryView(entry: entry)
}
.configurationDisplayName("My Widget")
.description("This is an example widget.")
.supportedFamilies([.systemSmall,.systemMedium,.systemLarge])
}
}
This is the SmallView class:
struct SmallView: View {
var date: Date
static let taskDateFormat: DateFormatter = {
let formatter = DateFormatter()
formatter.timeStyle = .medium
return formatter
}()
var body: some View {
VStack {
Text("Small View")
Text("\(Date(), formatter: Self.taskDateFormat)")
}
}
}
I want that the Widget will update every 2 minutes but it's not happening, any idea what is the problem?

Answer 1

I was also facing the same problem and tried every update time from 10 seconds to 10 minutes and it seems that it starts updating the content only from 5 minutes

Answer 2

this is what I use to update my widget every minute
func getTimeline(for configuration: ConfigurationIntent, in context: Context, completion: #escaping (Timeline<Entry>) -> ()) {
var entries = [SimpleEntry]()
let currentDate = Date()
let midnight = Calendar.current.startOfDay(for: currentDate)
let nextMidnight = Calendar.current.date(byAdding: .day, value: 1, to: midnight)!
for offset in 0 ..< 60 * 24 {
let entryDate = Calendar.current.date(byAdding: .minute, value: offset, to: midnight)!
entries.append(SimpleEntry(date: entryDate))
}
let timeline = Timeline(entries: entries, policy: .after(nextMidnight))
completion(timeline)
}
