My widget is not updating

Some phone manufacturers disable all background updates by default in order to save battery. Please visit the following link, click on your manufacturer, and follow the steps to allow background tasks: https://dontkillmyapp.com/

In Android 12 and later, you must set the battery optimization for the app to unrestricted in order for the widget to update automatically in the background. Please see the website above for instructions.

In Android 13 and later, you must enable notifications for the widget from your phone settings, apps, app name. If notifications are not enabled for the app, then the widget will not be able to automatically refresh.

If you installed or transferred the app on a memory card, then widgets will not be available for the app. This is a restriction of the Android system. Please move the app back to the phone's main storage/memory.
