This is a basic app that pulls down raw output from the swift DeviceActivity API. So all it does is interrogate the iOS DeviceActivity API and relay the output to the screen. This project is just meant to experiment around with the DeviceActivity API documented at https://developer.apple.com/documentation/deviceactivity. Requires the DeviceActivity entitlement to load the DeviceActivity Monitor Extension.
A few things to know:
- Users need to be in the same Family Plan (there might be a way around this)
- The app requires authorization (understandable but there isn’t any error correction in the experimentation app to correct for a state where a device hasn’t granted it).
- We have to import FamilyControls, ManagedSettings, and DeviceActivity according to the type of atomic operation we’re trying to complete
- There are placeholders to implement scheduled events
- There are placeholders to “encourage” and “discourage” activities
