WP7 Update Tile locally

is there a possibility in WP7 to update a tile from the depending application. For example a weather service that updates the tile every hour (ShellTileSchedule). Thanks in开发者_如何转开发 advance.

If using the current (7.0 / pre-mango tools) the way to update the tile locally is via the ShellTileSchedule. Alternatively you could try sending the TileNotification push notification from your app. (Note that I haven't tried this myself and I've heard mixed reports of how successful this is.) You can't do this when the app isn't running though.
