iOS tries to be clever about when it allows an app to refresh itself. It takes into account…

• Whether the battery is nearly dead, and whether the phone is plugged in: it will refresh more frequently if the phone is fully charged or currently plugged in.
• Whether you're on wifi or the cell network: it will refresh more frequently on wifi.
• How frequently you usually open the app: if you open an app only once a day or every few days, it won't get refreshed very often.
• When you typically open the app: if you usually open NYT Now around 7am, iOS will allow it to refresh around 6:45am or so.

So any combination of these could be affecting your NYT Now being up to date in the morning. Are you connected to wifi and plugged in overnight?

• Barring serious fundamental crypto breakthroughs, it's not technically possible to introduce a back door for law enforcement without putting the users at risk. Any back door (or "front door," which isn't a real thing in cryptosystem design) represents an additional attack vector. For example, a hypothetical key store for an encrypted messaging service, even if designed to be used only after due process is applied, represents a huge risk to all users of the system, from other nation-states or other organizations.

• More importantly in real-world scenarios, these encrypted messages will be around forever, and "due process" is malleable. In early-2000s America, one can imagine a suspension of due process in the investigation of a major terrorist attack or other act of war; in other countries, due process is redefined or taken away after a regime change. Then every message sent by anyone who has ever used the system is vulnerable.
