Yes, this is how it works now. The documentation is wrong / obsolete.

Hi folks,
This post is a similar to a Stackoverflow question [1], where I didn't
get any response, sorry for the duplicate.
I wrote a widget with a configuration Activity, and each time I
install the application with adb, the onUpdate method of my
WidgetProvider is called even if the widget isn't displayed. And also
sometimes with multiple appWidgetIds, and also when the configuration
Activity is started.
In the |onUpdate| method I checked the value of
|appWidgetManager.getAppWidgetIds()|, and it returns 0 items.
I don't understand because I though :
1. An |AppWidgetProvider| receives the broadcast only when there is
one ore more widget displayed.
2. A widget with a configuration |Activity| isn't updated with the
broadcast on start up.
3. Calling |appWidgetManager.getAppWidgetIds()| in
|onUpdate| should returns the same int array than the
|appWidgetIds| in the parameters.
As I experiment all those 3 dots are false.
Thanks in advance for explanation/help
