WidgetKit won't request a new timeline at the end

Question

When I run the code snippet below, WidgetKit is supposed to request a new timeline at the end of each minute according to the Apple's documentation.

Code Block 
let currentDate = Date()
let futureDate = Calendar.current.date(byAdding: .minute, value: 1, to: currentDate)!
let timeline = Timeline(entries: [
      Entry(date: currentDate, number: Int.random(in: 0...10))], policy: .after(futureDate))
completion(timeline)

But it just works once and nothing happens afterward as if it has been set to .never. I am trying it on iOS 14 Beta 2.

Please refer my solution here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62873336/ios-widgetkit-widget-not-getting-updated-even-when-userdefaults-are-synchroniz — Abhishek Bedi, Jul 13 '20 at 09:52
My widget requests new timelines, but only for a few hours after it's run. Then it just completely stops. If I add a new widget, that one will work for a while, but the original widget never updates (even if I call reloadAllTimelines from inside the main app). — bmueller, Jul 24 '20 at 04:27

That's because your updates are too aggressive. Change it to 15 minutes and it will work
