Thanks - Weathergraph author here. The tightened update budgets are just a part of a puzzle, another bad parts are:

- no background updates (for non-Apple apps, of course) once the low power mode is enabled

- a buch of long unfixed bugs, like this one https://openradar.appspot.com/radar?id=5568946145067008 - a WidgetKit cache of rendered widgets gets randomly corrupted (race issue when rendering maybe? seems to happen more often with a complex widgets), and once it happens, the specific widget stops updating until device restart (and app has no way of finding out that this happens)



Off-topic: thank you for the app! It's (subjectively, of course) by far the best weather widget out there - and I've tried a number of them. Really appreciate your work.
