Help for implementing widget glances

Hello,

Currently I am trying to add support for widget glances in my widget. As I am implementing a news widget I thought it would be nice if the widget glance view would show news headlines scrolling over the screen - just like on a tv news channel. Problematic is that I do not own a fenix 6, so I have to test these things on the simulator.

According to the documentation, widget glances should not be updated more often than once per second. Because I am using WatchUi.animate to scroll the text over the screen, I have no control over the refresh rate. On the Simulator everything appears to be working fine.

Would somebody who has a fenix 6 pro (the normal models don't support updating the screen at all) download the test app and check if the glance functions? This would be really awesome!

Here is the simulator running the glance:
