Hi team, I’m working on an ActivityKit use case where a Live Activity is useful on the Lock Screen, but not in the Dynamic Island. Today, Live Activities appear to be treated as a unified presentation across system surfaces: Lock Screen, Dynamic Island, StandBy, etc. For our app, the Lock Screen presentation is the right user experience, but showing the same activity in the Dynamic Island creates unnecessary persistent foreground UI while the user is actively using the device. Is there any supported way to create a Live Activity that appears on the Lock Screen but opts out of Dynamic Island presentation on supported iPhones? If not, I’d love to request an ActivityKit enhancement that lets developers specify supported presentation destinations for a Live Activity, for example something like: Lock Screen only or Lock Screen + StandBy, but not Dynamic Island This would be useful for apps where the Live Activity is meant to act as a passive lock-screen status/reminder, rather than an ongoing foreground indicator. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I'm running into what appears to be a stuck Family Controls entitlement request and wanted to see if anyone has experienced something similar. Request ID: 9D7MU547QH The request is still showing a status of "Submitted". Context: • Our main app bundle ID was already approved for the Family Controls entitlement. • Two related extensions (ShieldConfiguration and DeviceActivityMonitor) were also approved within a few days. • The remaining request is for a ShieldAction extension, which handles button taps from the shield UI. This entitlement is currently blocking our business's beta testing, so we’re trying to understand whether this is just normal queue delay or if the request might be stuck. Has anyone seen a case where the main app and other extensions were approved but a ShieldAction request remained in "Submitted" for an extended period? If an Apple engineer happens to see this, I’d greatly appreciate any guidance on whether the request might be stuck in the review queue. Thank you!
