How often do widgets refresh?

Apple refreshes widgets on a budget it sets for every app, which we've seen work out to every 15–20 minutes, so a widget's reading can be a little behind. Each widget shows how long ago its reading was taken. For readings that refresh every few minutes, use a Live Activity alongside your widgets: tap the reading at the top of StandBy to see it full screen.
