Unable to activate Live Activities

Im having trouble enabling Live Activities in a new app. The option is not available in Xcode or in the developer portal. Is there something I have to do to activate this option?

I am also having the same issue. I've reported it via the feedback forums, but essentially:

Xcode cannot generate provisioning profiles that include the com.apple.developer.activitykit entitlement, even when the app is properly configured with ActivityKit capabilities and entitlements. I can't even see ActivityKit within the developer portal.

I'm unable to distribute apps with Live Activities through App Store Connect or TestFlight. This affects both Xcode automatic signing.

I am also unable to activate Live Activities in my app entitlements because it is not on the the developer portal, either. Can not check it to select it.

I'm starting to think this is a manual approval process by Apple as I've tried everything to get this to work at this point.

Facing the exact same issue. I contacted support but no answer. Bringing visibility to this thread.

I got a response and it was to read the documentation... no matter even if I start a new project, ActivityKit is not there.

Thank you for this thread, I have spent the last 3 hours trying to add in activity kit, live activities, and car play for my app and have tried everything. Thought I was going mad.

I am also unable to find where to activate this or add it in the Xcode

Apple have reached out, I'll be in touch with any updates if I manage to get it working.

I faced the same issue two weeks ago. Has anyone managed to solve this or get an answer from Apple on how to do this?

Not yet @Pavel_Suchkou - I've sent a bunch of logs to Apple, hoping to hear back this week.
