Hi!

I have a quick question, I don't have Background App Refresh enabled but the weather widget (Today summary) on Notification Centre needs my location to work.

The question is, is the refresh hourly? or every time I pull down the NC? Or is 24/7 checking it?

Thanks in advance!
 
Mine only updates when I pull down. Sometimes it takes as long as 30 seconds. (normally quick) I use the Weather Underground widget as well and it does the same thing only its much faster. It updates when I look and does it quickly.

Well, that's a battery drainer then as I swipe down a lot :( Thanks tho.
