How does the Calendar app on Windows Phone update its live tile even with the battery saver on?

How does the Calendar app on Windows Phone update its live tile even with
the battery saver on?

I am trying to develop a simple calendar app with a live tile but in
battery saver mode the background agent won't run and I can't have the
live tile updated with the current day and day of week.
I noticed that the Calendar (1st party app) does not suffer from this
problem even in Battery Saver mode.
Does it get special attention / capabilities being a first party app or
there is some trick that I don't know (yet)?
