Automatically reopen watch app

Former Member
Former Member over 5 years ago

Hi,

I want to develop a watch app. When user first open my watch app, then switch to other apps. After sometime (example 1 minutes), my watch app automatically reopen.

Is there a way to do this?

    The closest you can do is to use a background temporal event to display a prompt to start your application or not (via Background.requestApplicationWake()). Keep in mind that a temporal event will not fire more frequently than once every five minutes, and may not get invoked when you want it to because the system is busy doing something else at the time. Also realize that prompting the user to start your application is likely to be a bad user experience unless you are careful about how frequently you do this or set the user expectation that your app is going to be incessantly trying to run itself when it isn't currently running.
