I’m implementing a Live Activity that shows some text and a button.
When the user taps the button, I want to open the host app.
What I’ve done so far:
Implemented a LiveActivityIntent to handle the button tap.
The intent is triggered successfully. However, the app does not open by using deep link/universal app link.
From what I can tell, LiveActivityIntent seems limited to system/background execution and doesn’t bring the app to the foreground.
Questions:
Is it possible for a LiveActivityIntent to open the app?
Is this behavior a documented/intentional limitation?
If not supported, is using a Universal Link or deep link the recommended solution for opening the app from a Live Activity button?
Any official clarification or recommended best practice would be helpful.
