Updating Complications every couple of minutes

I'm trying to build Beat clock (divide the day into 1000 beats each 84.6 seconds long). I need to be able to update a copmilication every minute. Using getTimelineEntries works fine, I can get the clock to update, but then after a few hours no more updates.


I don't want to talk to the phone, or need internet connectivity to generate timelines, is it not posible to update a complication 1000 times a day? I read somewhere you only get so many updates, but I thought that was between phone and watch?

There is a limit specified in getTimelineEntries called limit. You can only add that many complications to the timeline. You could set up a background refresh in order to use CLKComplicationServer's extendTimeline method. That would allow your app to add new complication templates to the timeline, while only counting against your run limit once for each background refresh.
