Can Widget supprt a timer for several minutes ?

When I run my widget on S62, it returns to watch face after 30 sec from the last key/touch operation.

Is it possible to make a timer that timeouts more than several munutes by Widget ?

Widgets, by design, time out on watches.

What you can do is start a background service that runs at the time you want, and then uses requestApplicationWake, but how this works may not be consistent on all devices (the requestApplicationWake)

Do you mean a widget can initiate background service ?

I want implement it by widget, not by App, as I want to use it while an App is running.

Yes, a widget can have a background service. I've been doing that since background services were introduced.
