Took a quick look at your Plunk and I think the way you use the promise if a bit off In a sense, I'd be ready to say that no way is wrong, but I'm just not too sure about it for now
You never should have to chain .then() in your template, it just doesn't make sense to me Also, but this is mostly a preference I have, I'd rather not bind a promise to the template directly, or even a factory, but that's "me" It is important to note that previous versions of Angular supported binding a promise directly in the template and it was automatically unwrapping the promise for you, this showing the result in the template, but this isn't true anymore. That's just one more reason not to bind a promise to the Tpl. The method you call from the template should live on the $scope created by your controller, and let that method do the work it needs and interect with your factory/promises and what not. When the promise is resolved, then you update whatever you need on the $scope object so it's reflected in your UI Here's a fork of your Plunk that shows what I mean, using both $timeout and setTimeout: Hope this help! http://plnkr.co/edit/5PhRC9?p=preview Cheers!
