Update scope value when service data is changed

Question

I have the following service in my app:

uaInProgressApp.factory(\'uaProgressService\', 
    function(uaApiInterface, $timeout, $rootScope){
        var facto

No $watch or etc. is required. You can simply define the following

uaInProgressApp.controller('ua.InProgressController',
  function ($scope, $rootScope, $routeParams, uaContext, uaProgressService) {
    uaContext.getSession().then(function(){
        uaContext.appName.set('Testing house');
        uaContext.subAppName.set('In progress');
        uaProgressService.startCron();
    });

    $scope.getTaskList = function() {
      return uaProgressService.taskList;
    };
  });

Because the function getTaskList belongs to $scope its return value will be evaluated (and updated) on every change of uaProgressService.taskList
