## Summary
Follow-up fixes after #4444 merged, addressing issues found during Mac
Catalyst testing:
- **Fix `›` character in Frequent Updates footer** — `.strings` files
don't interpret `\uXXXX` escapes at runtime; replaced with the literal
`›` character
- **Fix Mac Catalyst compilation** — `ActivityKit` APIs
(`ActivityAttributes`, `Activity`, `ActivityUIDismissalPolicy`, etc.)
are marked unavailable on Mac Catalyst even though
`canImport(ActivityKit)` returns true there. Replaced all `#if
canImport(ActivityKit)` and bare `#if os(iOS)` guards around ActivityKit
code with `#if os(iOS) && !targetEnvironment(macCatalyst)`. Files
affected:
- `HALiveActivityAttributes.swift`
- `LiveActivityRegistry.swift`
- `HandlerLiveActivity.swift`
- `LiveActivitySettingsView.swift`
- `HADynamicIslandView.swift`
- `HALockScreenView.swift`
- `HALiveActivityConfiguration.swift`
- `Widgets.swift` (three `HALiveActivityConfiguration()` call sites)
- `Environment.swift`, `AppDelegate.swift`, `HAAPI.swift`,
`NotificationsCommandManager.swift`, `SettingsItem.swift` (inline
guards)
## Test plan
- [x] iOS builds and runs
- [x] macOS (Mac Catalyst) builds and launches
- [ ] Live Activities settings entry does not appear on macOS (filtered
by `isTestFlight` + `#available(iOS 17.2, *)`)
- [ ] Live Activities work as expected on iOS TestFlight build

Introduce keyboard handling for WKWebView: add WebViewKeyboardAvoidance
helpers for animation metrics and overlap calculation, a WKWebView
extension to run a JS command that scrolls the focused editable element
into view, and a managed bottom constraint for web views so the view is
animated above the keyboard. Wire up keyboard observers and
DispatchWorkItem scheduling/cleanup in WebViewController and
OnboardingAuthLoginViewController, and add the
scrollFocusedElementIntoView JavaScript to WebViewJavascriptCommands.
Add unit tests verifying the bottom constraint creation and JS contents.

Remove the portWithFallback helper and update port comparisons to use
URL.port directly. baseIsEqual now compares ports via url.port (no
80/443 fallback), and SafeScriptMessageHandler passes url.port ?? 0 when
building origin keys (security origin uses port 0 when unspecified).
This simplifies port handling and avoids implicit defaulting to standard
ports.

## Summary
> For architecture decisions, data model details, iOS version strategy,
push token flow, and rate limiting — see
[technical-brief.pdf](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/26280274/technical-brief.pdf)
Adds iOS Live Activities support, letting Home Assistant automations
push real-time state to the Lock Screen — washing machine countdowns, EV
charging progress, delivery tracking, alarm states, or anything
time-sensitive that benefits from glanceable visibility without
unlocking the phone.
When an automation sends a notification with `live_update: true` in the
data payload, the companion app starts a Live Activity instead of (or in
addition to) a standard notification banner. Subsequent pushes with the
same `tag` update it in-place silently. `clear_notification` + `tag`
ends it.
Field names (`tag`, `title`, `message`, `progress`, `progress_max`,
`chronometer`, `when`, `when_relative`, `notification_icon`,
`notification_icon_color`) are intentionally shared with Android's Live
Notifications API. Both platforms use the same `live_update: true`
trigger — a single YAML block targets iOS 17.2+ and Android 16+ with no
platform-specific keys.
```yaml
data:
title: "Washing Machine"
message: "Cycle in progress"
data:
tag: washer_cycle
live_update: true # Android 16+ and iOS 17.2+
progress: 2700
progress_max: 3600
chronometer: true
when: 2700
when_relative: true
notification_icon: mdi:washing-machine
notification_icon_color: "#2196F3"
```
**New files:**
- `Sources/Shared/LiveActivity/HALiveActivityAttributes.swift` — the
`ActivityAttributes` type. Field names match the Android payload spec.
**Struct name and `CodingKeys` are wire-format frozen** — APNs
push-to-start payloads reference the Swift type name directly.
- `Sources/Shared/LiveActivity/LiveActivityRegistry.swift` — Swift
`actor` managing `Activity<HALiveActivityAttributes>` lifecycle. Uses a
reservation pattern to prevent duplicate activities when two pushes with
the same `tag` arrive simultaneously.
-
`Sources/Shared/Notifications/NotificationCommands/HandlerLiveActivity.swift`
— start/update and end `NotificationCommandHandler` implementations,
guarded against the `PushProvider` extension process where ActivityKit
is unavailable.
- `Sources/Extensions/Widgets/LiveActivity/` — `ActivityConfiguration`
wrapper, Lock Screen / StandBy view, and compact / minimal / expanded
Dynamic Island views.
- `Sources/App/Settings/LiveActivity/LiveActivitySettingsView.swift` —
activity status, active list, privacy disclosure, and 11 debug scenarios
for pre-server-side testing.
**Modified files:**
- `Widgets.swift` — registers `HALiveActivityConfiguration` in all three
`WidgetBundle` variants behind `#available(iOSApplicationExtension 17.2,
*)`
- `NotificationsCommandManager.swift` — registers new handlers;
`HandlerClearNotification` now also ends a matching Live Activity when
`tag` is present
- `HAAPI.swift` — adds `supports_live_activities`,
`supports_live_activities_frequent_updates`,
`live_activity_push_to_start_token`,
`live_activity_push_to_start_apns_environment` to registration payload
under a single `#available(iOS 17.2, *)` check
- `AppDelegate.swift` — reattaches surviving activities at launch and
starts observing push-to-start tokens under a single `#available(iOS
17.2, *)` check
- `Info.plist` — `NSSupportsLiveActivities` +
`NSSupportsLiveActivitiesFrequentUpdates`
- `SettingsItem.swift` / `SettingsView.swift` — Live Activities settings
row is gated behind `Current.isTestFlight` and shows a `BetaLabel` badge
**Tests:**
- *Unit Tests*
- 45 new tests (36 handler tests, 9 command manager routing tests). All
490 existing tests continue to pass.
- *Device Tests*
- I tried to test with my physical device, however I do not have a paid
account. Turns out I could not deploy without disabling a lot of
entitlements for compilation. Even so, once I did get it deployed and
running Live Activities wouldn't show unless some of those settings that
I disable were re-enable and leaving me in a particular spot.
- I mainly tested with the simulator which is what is shown below

## Any other notes
**iOS version gating at 17.2.** The entire feature is gated at
`#available(iOS 17.2, *)` — this is the minimum for push-to-start (the
primary server-side start mechanism). A single availability check now
covers all Live Activity APIs: `supports_live_activities`,
`frequentPushesEnabled`, push-to-start token, and all ActivityKit usage.
This eliminates the nested 16.2/17.2 check pattern.
**Push-to-start (iOS 17.2+) is client-complete.** The token is observed,
stored in Keychain, and included in registration payloads. All companion
server-side PRs are now open — relay server at
home-assistant/mobile-apps-fcm-push#278 and HA core webhook handlers at
home-assistant/core#166072. The relay server uses FCM's native
`apns.liveActivityToken` support (Firebase Admin SDK v13.5.0+) — no
custom APNs client or credentials needed.
> **Server-side work** — all PRs now open:
> - ~~`supports_live_activities` field handling in device registration~~
✓ home-assistant/core#166072
> - ~~`mobile_app_live_activity_token` webhook handler~~ ✓

> - ~~`notify.py` routing: includes Live Activity APNs token alongside
FCM token~~ ✓ home-assistant/core#166072
**Live Activities entry in Settings is gated behind TestFlight.** The
settings row only appears when `Current.isTestFlight` is true,
preventing it from surfacing in a release build before the feature is
fully tested. A `BetaLabel` badge is shown alongside the row title.
**iPad:** `areActivitiesEnabled` is always `false` on iPad — Apple
system restriction. The Settings screen shows "Not available on iPad."
The registry silently no-ops. HA receives `supports_live_activities:
false` in the device registration for iPad.
**`HALiveActivityAttributes` is frozen post-ship.** The struct name
appears as `attributes-type` in APNs push-to-start payloads. Renaming it
silently breaks all remote starts. The `ContentState` `CodingKeys` are
equally frozen — only additions are safe. Both have comments in the
source calling this out.
**The debug section in Settings is intentional.** Gated behind `#if
DEBUG` so it only appears in debug builds — it never ships to TestFlight
or the App Store. It exercises the full ActivityKit lifecycle without
requiring the server-side chain.
**`UNUserNotificationCenter` in tests.** The `clear_notification` +
`tag` → Live Activity dismissal path is covered by code review rather
than a unit test. `HandlerClearNotification` calls
`UNUserNotificationCenter.current().removeDeliveredNotifications`
synchronously, which requires a real app bundle and throws
`NSInternalInconsistencyException` in the XCTest host. A comment in the
test file explains this.
**Rate limiting on iOS 18.** Apple throttles Live Activity updates to
~15 seconds between renders. Automations should trigger on state change
events, not polling timers.

## Summary
- Kiosk screensaver idle timer was not resetting on user interaction —
`recordKioskActivity()` was defined but never called
- WKWebView consumes touch events before UIKit idle detection, so the
timer counted down from kiosk activation rather than last touch
- Added a tap gesture recognizer on the WebView (`cancelsTouchesInView =
false`) to detect taps without interfering with normal interaction
- Added `scrollViewWillBeginDragging` delegate hook to detect
scroll/drag interactions
## Test plan
- [ ] Enable kiosk mode with 30s screensaver timeout
- [ ] Tap on the WebView dashboard — idle timer should reset
- [ ] Scroll on the dashboard — idle timer should reset
- [ ] Stop interacting — screensaver should appear after configured
timeout
- [ ] Verify normal WebView interaction (taps, links, scrolling) still
works normally

## Summary
Reopening kiosk mode PR (previously #4218) after addressing all review
feedback from @bgoncal. Apologies for the delay — some family matters
pulled me away, but I'm excited to get this implemented and am fully
committed to seeing it through.
This PR adds the foundational infrastructure for **kiosk mode** — a
feature designed for wall-mounted iPad displays running Home Assistant
dashboards.
### What's included:
- **KioskModeManager** — Central coordinator singleton with
KioskModeObserver protocol (no NotificationCenter)
- **KioskSettings** — Comprehensive settings model with GRDB persistence
(camelCase columns, Codable)
- **Screensaver system** — Clock screensaver with 4 styles, pixel shift
for OLED burn-in prevention
- **Secret exit gesture** — Configurable corner tap to access settings
when locked down
- **Status bar hiding** — StatusBarForwardingNavigationController for
proper UIKit integration
- **Settings UI** — SwiftUI settings accessible via Settings menu and
secret gesture
- **28 unit tests** — Covering settings serialization, time logic,
orientations, enums
### Changes since #4218 (all review feedback addressed):
- ✅ Fixed settings modal dismissal on iOS 15 (UINavigationController +
explicit onDismiss closure)
- ✅ Fixed status bar hiding (StatusBarForwardingNavigationController +
statusBarView integration)
- ✅ Removed non-functional settings (navigationLockdown,
TouchFeedbackManager, IconMapper)
- ✅ Replaced `Date()` with `Current.date()` for testability
- ✅ GRDB persistence follows CarPlayConfig/WatchConfig pattern with
DatabaseTableProtocol
- ✅ All strings localized via L10n (SwiftGen)
- ✅ SFSafeSymbols used throughout (no string-based systemName)
- ✅ KioskModeObserver protocol (no NotificationCenter)
- ✅ Kiosk files prefixed with `Kiosk`
- ✅ UIKit screensaver container (required for status bar/home indicator
control)
- ✅ macCatalyst filtered out
- ✅ Merged with latest upstream/main (adapted to Frontend/ directory
restructure)
- ✅ Idle timer pauses when settings view is open
- ✅ TODO comments (no PR-specific comments)
### Testing Instructions
1. **Settings → Companion App → Kiosk Mode** → Enable "Enable Kiosk
Mode"
2. Set screensaver timeout to **30 seconds** for quick testing
3. Wait for screensaver → tap to wake
4. Use secret gesture (default: 3 taps in top-left corner) to access
settings
### Previous review context
All feedback from @bgoncal in #4218 has been addressed. See that PR for
full discussion history.
## Test plan
- [ ] Enable/disable kiosk mode from Settings
- [ ] Screensaver activates after timeout
- [ ] Tap to wake from screensaver
- [ ] Secret gesture opens settings
- [ ] Status bar hides when kiosk mode active (full-screen iPad only)
- [ ] Device authentication toggle works
- [ ] Settings persist across app restart
- [ ] Clock screensaver styles (large, minimal, digital, analog)
- [ ] Pixel shift moves clock position periodically
- [ ] Kiosk entry hidden on macCatalyst

## Summary
<!-- Provide a brief summary of the changes you have made and most
importantly what they aim to achieve -->
Introduce HAAppUsedContent to centralize the list of Home Assistant
domains and provide rawValues. Use HAAppUsedContent.rawValues in
AppEntitiesModel to filter entities (removing the local domains list).
Update EntityAddToHandler to only add CustomWidgetAction when the
entity's Domain can be constructed and is included in
HAAppUsedContent.domains. Change MagicItem's default interactionType
from a refresh app intent to a navigateIntent that opens the entity deep
link (AppConstants.openEntityDeeplinkURL). These changes restrict widget
availability to supported domains and make default item interactions
navigate directly to the entity.

## Summary
This PR aims to fix a couple of bugs I noticed while testing the new
watch folders feature in the latest Test Flight build:
1) Changing the folder name, icon, and icon after it was created did not
work.
2) When adding a folder, the folder name should be a placeholder, not a
pre-filled field.
3) When switching between a folder and the root view, the items should
not resize after rendering (see the last item here):
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/262cb313-f307-455f-ba21-7a189a3f7589
Note: I could not reproduce the resizing bug in the simulator, and
haven't been able to get Xcode to let me build to my devices locally.
Would you be up for trying to reproduce it/verify my fix on your end?
