S6 email widget doesn't automatically update/refresh?

[eb2phkingood]

galaxy s6 edge.

My email widget does not automatically update although I have the settings in the email for it to update every 2 hours. I do receive email notifications. But the widget does not update without me pressing the refresh button in the upper right corner. On my old phone, the email widget would update as I received new emails. How do I make the s6 do this? Its a yahoo email account. Not rooted. Using nova launcher.

Thanks
