DeviceActivityReport presents statistics for a device: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/deviceactivity/deviceactivityreport The problem: DeviceActivityReport can present statistics with a delay for a parent device (when DeviceActivityReport is presenting, the DeviceActivityReportExtension is called to process the statistics). One possible solution is to call DeviceActivityReport periodically throughout the day in a child device. However, the app will not be available all day. Is there any way to run DeviceActivityReport in the background? I have tried the following approach, but it didn’t work (DeviceActivityReportExtension didnt call): let hostingController: UIHostingController? = .init(rootView: DeviceActivityReport(context, filter: filter)) hostingController?.view.frame = .init(origin: .zero, size: .init(width: 100, height: 100)) hostingController?.beginAppearanceTransition(true, animated: false) hostingController?.loadView() hostingController?.viewDidLoad() try? await Task.sleep(for: .seconds(0.5)) hostingController?.viewWillAppear(true) hostingController?.viewWillLayoutSubviews() try? await Task.sleep(for: .seconds(0.5)) hostingController?.viewDidAppear(true) try? await Task.sleep(for: .seconds(0.5)) hostingController?.didMove(toParent: rootVC) try? await Task.sleep(for: .seconds(0.5)) hostingController?.viewWillLayoutSubviews() hostingController?.viewDidLayoutSubviews() hostingController?.view.layoutIfNeeded() hostingController?.view.layoutSubviews() hostingController?.endAppearanceTransition() Is there any way to run DeviceActivityReport in the background? (when app is not visible/closed). The main problem is call DeviceActivityReport

The data displayed about a child’s apps can be outdated (DeviceActivityReport), leading to misinformation for the user. When I access the “Screen Time” section (for child in the parent device) in the iPhone settings, I see there is an update functionality to force load the actual data. I have tried various workarounds, such as attempting to force an update on the child’s device to call DeviceActivityReport and opening system settings, but none of these have been successful :( How can I implement something similar? Is there a way to force update this data ?

Hello! I am developing an app using the Screen Time API. Everything is good, but I have a problem with DeviceActivityReport. On the child’s device, stats are synced to the app in about 1-5 minutes. However, on the parent’s device, it can take around an hour or more. How can I make the stats sync faster between the child’s device and the parent’s device? How I Implemented It @Published var context: DeviceActivityReport.Context = .init("Time Limit") let filter = DeviceActivityFilter( segment: .daily( during: Calendar.current.dateInterval(of: .day, for: .now)! ), users: .children, devices: .all, applications: applicationTokens ) DeviceActivityReport(viewModel.context, filter: viewModel.filter) .frame(maxHeight: viewModel.maxReportHeight) In the Report Extension (Test Code) for await d in data { result += "device.name=\(d.device.name ?? "")" result += "\nuser.appleID=\(d.user.appleID ?? "")" result += "\ngivenName=\(d.user.nameComponents?.givenName ?? "")" result += "\nrole=\(d.user.role.rawValue)" for await activity in d.activitySegments { result += "\nactivitySegments hashValue=\(activity.hashValue)" result += "\ntotalActivityDuration=\(activity.totalActivityDuration)" result += "\ndateInterval=\(activity.dateInterval)" for await category in activity.categories { result += "\ncategory=\(category.category.localizedDisplayName ?? "")" for await app in category.applications { result += "\napp=\(app.application.bundleIdentifier ?? ""), time=\(app.totalActivityDuration)" } } } } Problems: activity.categories can be empty for a long time app.totalActivityDuration contains outdated information I need to wait about 1+ hours to get “actual” information.

I want to create an app to control a child's device. As I understand it, I need to follow this logic: I have one app for both the child and the parent. For the child, I request authorization with the following code: try await AuthorizationCenter.shared.requestAuthorization(for: .child) For the parent, I show functions like: familyActivityPicker Are these settings automatically applied to the child's device, or do I need to send a silent push notification to apply the new settings? Additionally, how can I get statistics from the child's device to the parent's device?
