Live Activities allow your app to display real-time, glanceable updates on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island (on supported iPhone models). This feature helps users stay informed about ongoing events—such as delivery progress, timers, or scores—without needing to open the app.
Our SDK simplifies the integration of Live Activities by managing setup, lifecycle management, and updates. With just a few lines of code, you can start, update, and end activities seamlessly.
Use cases include tracking orders, workouts, media playback, or any live process. Live Activities enhance user engagement by keeping key information always visible and up to date.
This functionality is available on iOS 16.1 and later.
Note: Starting with iOS 17, Live Activities have new behaviors and interaction capabilities, including support for standby mode and enhanced Dynamic Island experiences.
