What does Activitysmith do?
Activitysmith is a service that lets you push real-time data from your backend directly to your iPhone's Lock Screen. You can display live metrics like revenue, user counts, and uptime as widgets, send push notifications for events like deployments or errors, and use Live Activities to track long-running processes. It works with any backend — Node.js, Python, Ruby, Go, PHP, or CLI — and integrates with tools like GitHub Actions, Vercel, Sentry, and Zapier.
You start by signing up for an API key, then download the Activitysmith iOS app and pair your device. From there, you call the API from your backend, worker, cron job, or automation to send updates. For example, you can stream a deployment's progress step by step, or push a notification when a trial user upgrades. Activitysmith also offers an MCP server that lets AI coding agents like Claude Code and Cursor report their progress and completion directly to your iPhone.
This tool is built for developers and DevOps engineers who want to keep an eye on their systems without constantly checking a dashboard. It's especially useful for monitoring deployments, tracking key SaaS metrics, and staying informed about automated workflows. If you run a startup or manage production infrastructure, Activitysmith turns your Lock Screen into a live status board.
