- Live Activity works only when the device is unlocked and open the app is the app live activity can start from remote via push notification
Push to start via notification not start live activity when device locked within 5mn
The best first course of action here would be to use Console.app to monitor to the relevant processes related to your app and extensions.
A good way to start would be with filtering by the BundleID of the target and / or the target name itself (the process name).
Also be sure to check the system processes for additional information. This will vary based on what and where you are looking but some examples:
To debug APNS you'll want to monitor apnd along with other relevant processes.
To debug WidgetKit, LiveActivities, Dynamic Island you'll want to monitor springboardd, liveactivitiesd along with other relevant processes.
