iOS 17 Ready: RainViewer Live Activities & Weather Widgets | RainViewer Blog

iOS 17 is on its way with exciting updates. We at RainViewer have ensured that you experience weather like never before with our new live activities and iOS 17-compatible widgets.

Live Activities

RainViewer’s Live Activity on the Dynamic Island shows a minute-by-minute precipitation forecast and the amount of accumulated rain. The Live Activity also displays the time left until the end of the rain. On the lock screen, the Live Activity will look the same as on the Dynamic Island.

A compact Live Activity appears when it’s raining outside. It visualizes the rainfall and how much time remains until the end of the rain. If two island widgets are enabled, the RainViewer Live Activity becomes minimal and displays only the time left until the end of the rain.
