Election 2024: Track caucus with Apple News Live Activities.
Aspires to serve as your go-to source for election news. Here are some features the app offers, such as Live Activities for your Lock Screen that are updated in real time.
Keeping up with the news, surveys, and debates during election seasons might be daunting. Fortunately, Apple has been improving how the Apple News app covers elections over time to make things easier.
Live Activities and Apple News:
Live Activity support for news coverage is the most significant recent update that we have observed. Apple News editors used this tool for the first time during the Iowa Caucus on January 15.
As part of the feature upgrade for Dynamic Island on the iPhone 14 Pro, Live Activities were launched with iOS 16. They are a unique kind of notification that appears on Dynamic Island and shows the most recent real-time information in a pop-up or on the lock screen.
