name: "add-live-activity" description: "Add a Live Activity for Lock Screen + Dynamic Island via expo-live-activity. Use when the user says 'Live Activity', 'Dynamic Island', 'Lock Screen widget', 'live updates'." metadata: version: "1.0.1"

Add Live Activity

Lock Screen + Dynamic Island updates via ActivityKit. Use for time-bound info: orders, rides, sports, workouts, timers.

Install

bash

npm install expo-live-activity
npm exec --no -- expo prebuild --clean

(For more control, also see Voltra: react-native-live-activity.)

app.json

json

{
  "expo": {
    "plugins": ["expo-live-activity"],
    "ios": {
      "infoPlist": {
        "NSSupportsLiveActivities": true,
        "NSSupportsLiveActivitiesFrequentUpdates": true
      }
    }
  }
}

Define attributes (Swift, in generated `ios/` after prebuild)

swift

struct DeliveryAttributes: ActivityAttributes {
    public struct ContentState: Codable, Hashable {
        var minutesAway: Int
        var status: String
    }
    var orderNumber: String
}

Start / update / end from JS

tsx

import * as LiveActivity from 'expo-live-activity';
// Start
const activityId = await LiveActivity.startActivity({
  attributes: { orderNumber: '1234' },
  contentState: { minutesAway: 30, status: 'Preparing' },
});
// Update
await LiveActivity.updateActivity(activityId, { minutesAway: 20, status: 'On the way' });
// End
await LiveActivity.endActivity(activityId, { minutesAway: 0, status: 'Delivered' });

Push updates via APNs

Topic: <bundle-id>.push-type.liveactivity. Push the activity's pushToken (returned from startActivity) for remote updates.

Limitation

iOS-only (no Android)
4-hour max activity duration; can be extended via push update
