Long shot.

I know this is a long shot but any one know how to fix this? I'm using next launcher and beautiful widgets and clock on widget won't keep time with phone... been like this since Oreo update.

I guess you HAVE checked the widgets settings? Looking for a "use system time" option or something similar.

Yeah.. it even does this with the clock widget that comes with the launcher

If you use power saving mode, make sure that app's battery usage is not optimized.

I've done that also.. I'm using Nova now and all is good so guessing it's a problem with the launcher.

You could try a force stop/re-enable on the launcher. May not help, but quick & easy to try. Fixes some things.

No joy.. is anybody else using this launcher? Maybe it's my phone

Switch to the Microsoft Launcher

Wow... I was going to suggest dumping Beautiful Widgets like I did. This started happening to me years ago, so I’d figured it had something to do with the app. Sorry to hear that it happens when you’re using the stock widgets, too. Let us know if you find a solution!

Next launcher hadn't updated in a very long time. I've emailed them and they say they might look into it. Ridiculous when Next was expensive and now useless if using Oreo.

That's about the same response I got from them also... it's a shame because I paid for next launcher and really like it.
