@InstantInteractive, did you get any confirmation that this was fixed in any release since you filed your feedback?

@DeveloperToolsEngineer, do you know if there will be a new framework tag for "ActivityKit" made available in the forums?

I have only gotten the activity to show for requests that set the push token to nil. I haven't explored the push based activity very far yet. Note the default value of the pushType parameter is to set to push, so ensure you set it to nil if you want local. For my "local only" activities, I've also experience the simulator not showing them (FB11064112). I would encourage you to file a feedback too and post the number in here.

This should be marked as the correct answer.

@Gama_, right now the behavior is you request an activity and if your code is good and device setup correct, you're granted in first time without a permission prompt. There is a toggle in Settings > Your App > Live Activities, but I've created a feedback for an explicit user permission prompt. FB11210596

From the documentation you can START an activity only from the foreground. Given push, and the nature of the activity, you should be able to UPDATE from the background. I plan to test this out and file feedback if I can't get it to work. @haozes, what background capability are you using that you're trying to update from the background?

Until we get a real example project to download, this should be marked as correct.

@Pulin I think it was described in the Platform State of the Union that ActivityKit would be available later this fall. If you want to keep developing against it, use Xcode 14 Beta 6, or wait for Xcode 14.1 Betas to release.

Any updates on this? The page you referenced still says coming soon. I want to use SRVisits instead of implementing/integrating with CoreLocation's Visit API though it is likely the same or similar under the hood.

@developer555, make sure that you add the push notification capability to your application target. I marked this as the solution below as it resolved the issue in my demo app.

@eskimo, Can you elaborate on when the bug was introduced? I assume, 16.0.0. So presumably iOS 16.0.0 and any new iPad that shipped with 16.0.x before upgrading to 16.1? If my app code is using the subscriber for app exit data and memory statistics (metric memory metric), and a crash reporting tool using the diagnostics, it is lose-lose. Many crash reporting tools deliver their solution as a binary framework and don't allow customization of setup. So turning this off in an SDK would be tough.

I got a reply back on my feedback that the team was unable to reproduce it but it still happens for me 100% of the time as of my testing on Xcode Version 14.2 (14C18).

FB12347790 +1 Same story, I'd like to not have to build and manage code for a medication feature if it is in Health app. I have several production apps that would integrate right away if available.

I have the same issue on Apple Vision Pro. Deleting the app from Springboard (Apple Vision Pro 'Home') as well as doing a reboot did not allow installation from Xcode. I created the following feedback for this: FB13634444 - Apple Vision Pro: iCloud Backup - failed to install the app on the device.
