Hi,
I am writting a watchapp that will attempt to get new data hourly and update its corresponding complication accordingly. Since the data it updates relies on location, is there a way to update the location when the app is not in the foreground? When I attempt to update the location using the background application refresh, it hangs until the app is in foreground again.
I read here that for this kind of update, it is preferable to use the iOS counterpart app, but is there a way to get a single location update request per hour, without relying on the iPhone?
Yes, apparently with watchOS 4 one can do that, enabling background location updates. It worked for me.
