Aivi: Live Activities over API

Ever wanted your smart home devices to stay visible on your iPhone – not buried in notifications?

Aivi brings Live Activities to any device through a simple HTTP API. Unlike regular notifications that disappear, your activities stay persistent on your lock screen, Dynamic Island, and Apple Watch until they're done.

The key difference: If Home Assistant or your IoT platform can track it, Aivi can display it as a beautiful Live Activity – no native support needed.

WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH AIVI:

• Monitor dishwasher and washing machine cycles with countdown timers
• Track 3D printer progress and time remaining in real-time
• Check EV charging status and completion time
• Follow robot vacuum cleaning progress room-by-room
• Keep tabs on oven timers and cooking progress
• Display any smart home device status with Home Assistant integration

KEY FEATURES:

• Always Visible – Live Activities stay on your lock screen and Dynamic Island, not hidden in notification history
• Family Sharing – Set up an activity once, invite family members, and everyone gets automatic real-time updates
• Universal Compatibility – Works across iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, CarPlay, and Mac¹
• Simple REST API – Integrate in minutes with any system that can make HTTP calls
• Power Efficient – Push updates only when something changes, no constant polling
• Home Assistant Ready – Native rest_command integration, no custom components needed
• Perfect for Home Assistant users, smart home enthusiasts, makers, and anyone tracking long-running processes.

Start with a free 7-day trial. Your subscribers never pay anything – only the activity owner needs a subscription.
