The following page explains how to manually show the Add Friend Sheet for GameKit. However, in SwiftUI apps, UIViewControllers aren't used and I can't get the Add Friend sheet to work. What is the most simple way to show the presentFriendRequestCreator from a SwiftUI app? https://developer.apple.com/documentation/gamekit/connecting_players_with_their_friends_in_your_game?changes=_6 // Below is the code that shows how to present the add friend sheet, the problem is that I don't have a rootviewController to pass into the function as I'm using SwiftUI. do { try GKLocalPlayer.local.presentFriendRequestCreator(from: rootViewController!) } catch { print("Error: (error.localizedDescription).") }

When the build a multi-device workout app sample project is ran, there is a problem that stops workouts from being logged with only the watch. When the workout is started from the Apple Watch with the iPhone app closed, you can usually end the workout from the watch in the first few seconds. However, if the workout lasts more than 30 seconds, when the workout is ended via the watch, everything will stall for multiple minutes or indefinitely until the iPhone app is opened. How is it reccommended to fix this issue? It makes the sample project unusable for production as is because many users may want to sometimes log a workout with their watch without the iPhone present. I haven't been able to figure out a good solution, can someone please help with this.

Is there any way a live activity could be started from a shortcut? The example live activities (ordering a ride share, viewing sports scores etc) are good fits for shortcuts and live activities but I'm not able to start a live activity from a shortcut using the new app intents framework. Is it possible to start a live activity from an app intent shortcut?

I would like to allow users to run an Apple Watch App action by using automations on the iPhone. The action can only be done on the watch and not the companion iPhone app? I noticed that it's possible to start a workout on the default Apple watch app with automations, and also possible to start a workout on the 3rd party Dawn Patrol app using automations. Is it possible to do this with custom intents or NSUserActivities or only the system start workout intent?

I downloaded the sample code from the WWDC 2022 session "Counting human body action repetitions in a live video feed" and ran it on my new iPhone SE (which has an A15 Bionic chip). Unfortunately, this sample project (whose action repetition counter was mentioned multiple times during WWDC, was extremely inconsistent in tracking reps. It rarely worked for me, which was disappointing because I was really excited about this functionality. I'd like to use this action repetition counting in an app of my own, it would be very useful if it worked, but I'm skeptical after struggling to get Apple's sample app to accurately count reps. Does anyone have any suggestions for getting this sample project or action repetition counting in general, to accurately work? Any help would be really appreciated, thanks!
