Hey there,
I'm implementing Watch Complications in an existing project, and I'm having the problem that transferCurrentComplicationUserInfo(_:) works exactly as transferUserInfo(_:) is described in the documentation, but not as it should.
That is, when the WatchApp is opened, func session(_ session: WCSession, didReceiveUserInfo userInfo: [String: Any] = [:]) receives the data sent by transferCurrentComplicationUserInfo(_:). If not, the data is queued until the Watch App is opened again.
In other words, transferCurrentComplicationUserInfo(_:) never wakes up the ExtensionDelegate when the Watch App is not running.
Has anyone experienced the same thing and know how to fix it?
More details:
Testing on iPhone 11 (iOS 17.1.2) and Apple Watch SE (WatchOS 10.2)
I made sure that the quota of 50 is not exhausted when I test.
The WatchApp is still dual-target (I want to avoid having to migrate to single-target and SwiftUI lifecycle)
Watch App code:
class ExtensionDelegate: NSObject, WKExtensionDelegate, WCSessionDelegate {
let session = WCSession.default
override init() {
super.init()
if WCSession.isSupported() {
session.delegate = self
session.activate()
}
}
func session(_ session: WCSession, didReceiveUserInfo userInfo: [String: Any] = [:]) {
WatchWidgetSessionHandler.shared.processComplicationUserInfo(userInfo)
}
}
IOS App code:
class WatchAppDataManager: NSObject, WCSessionDelegate {
override init() {
super.init()
let session = WCSession.default
session.delegate = self
session.activate()
}
func sendDataToWidget(for kinds: [WatchWidgetKind]) async {
guard
WCSession.default.activationState == .activated,
WCSession.default.isComplicationEnabled
else {
return
}
let widgetsData = dataProvider.getData(for: kinds)
if !widgetsData.isEmpty {
WCSession.default.transferCurrentComplicationUserInfo(widgetsData)
}
}
}
