Widgets are fine but the time didn't gets updated.. I have to reboot everytime or I have to reload The widget again and again

I'm not sure what happened but after the last update the widgets will freeze after a few hours of use. At first the widget would just go blank, so I went in and made sure battery optimization was off, now it just freezes and won't update anything. I used to love this app, maybe its time to find something else.

I have use this widget app on several devices without a problem. But, now on the Note 8 one u with nova launcher, the widgets will not load after reboot. I literally have to remove the blank spot and add the widget to the home screen everytime I reboot my device. After troubleshooting with other clock widgets, I found that it was only common with this widget app. I could not pull an error log to send that may have been helpful to fix this problem. Looking forward to an update.

Was great, now useless. This app was amazing. So many options and you could customise them. However since an update it no longer updates in the background and the widget itself stops responding. I have looked into all the battery settings I have and I have stopped any kind of optimisation there is but it still doesn't work. Its a shame because it was superb.

Sweet Widgets , not very stable .Note 9 with Android 9 pie software . Great selection of widgets . But after a few hours widgets dont update and freeze . This also happens if you clear my recently open apps screen . I disabled battery optimization from the start and still the widgets freeze up and nonresponsive . Shame due to the fact some of the widgets are damn nice .
