I might be confusing you Brian.
On my iPad touch I have your iWD as well as the newer WDliveapp.
With the iWD my only concern is having to hit the bookmark 1 (which contains my URL) each time I open the app. Am I missing something to keep this saved so it automatically loads the data.
With the WDliveapp and the latest update it no longer appears to be live. The update time stays static here but if I close and reload it updates the data.
