Is there anyway to get more control over live activity behavior??
All I want is a live widget that I can peek at if I want to, I don’t need my whole phone taken over.
Specifically, for the Apple Sports app, it is great they have the automatic live activities…but it’s on the lock screen, dynamic island, has notifications etc…it is way overkill. Even worse…is that the app doesn’t even have a widget option at all.
There used to be a CBS sports widget that was available in that weird ‘today’ view, that pre-dated live activities and it basically did this.
Now the current CBS modern widget doesn’t even offer showing scores (only news)…go figure.
A widget that simply shows sports scores is literally the most applicable use-case for a live activity.
ESPN doesn’t even have a widget, wtf.
