Widgets Freeze



Hi. I have noticed that widgets do not work properly on my brand new Moto X Play. You can add a widget, but it appears frozen and the content does not update or allow interaction. If you modify the widget size, it will stretch the image of the widget, again failing to update the widget. Depending on the widget, it will bring you to the app of you tap on it, but sometimes even that does not work. Deleting and replacing widgets makes no difference. Using Nova launcher appears to fix the issue, although I have not tested this for a period as long as an hour yet.

This seems to be a widespread issue across many phones, including Samsung and Nexus phones, thus is appears to be an Android issue more than a specific Moto issue or a hardware issue. It is possible it is a Google Now Launcher issue specifically.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue or know of a fix? I have yet to find one other than rebooting every hour or so (or possibly switching launchers). The leading theory is that the widget process is being kicked out of memory. The scary thing is that this bug has been reported as far back as Android 4.3, although I never experienced it on my SGS3 with CM11.

Thanks
