With iOS 16, Apple introduced two features that make real-time, glanceable information more accessible: Live Activities and Dynamic Island. These tools keep users informed without unlocking their phones or opening an app, allowing you to display things like delivery tracking, live sports scores, or wait times right on the Lock Screen and at the top of the screen.
In this 2-part series, we'll cover:
Part 1:
What Are Live Activities & Dynamic Island?
Presentation & Constraints
Design Layouts for Different Views
Starting, Updating, and Ending Live Activities
Part 2:
Animating Live Activity Updates
Handling Push Notifications
Adding Interactions (buttons, toggles, deep links)
We'll demonstrate by building a Live Activity for wait times, perfect for use cases like restaurant queues or appointment scheduling. Stay tuned for more!
