iOS 16: How to enable more frequent live updates on iPhone

Live updates enables a user to get updated information when an event happens, such as scores from a live game.  They appear on the device’s Dynamic Island on the top of the screen.

If you’re finding that the live updates aren’t as up-to-date as you like, do the below to increase its update time.

1. Open the Settings app on iPhone.
2. Scroll down in settings and find an app that supports Live Activities.
3. Tap on ‘Live Activities’.
4. Obviously make sure that ‘Allow Live Activities’ is enabled.
5. Toggle the switch for “More Frequent Updates” to the ON position.
6. Repeat with other apps as desired.
7. That’s it. 

Dynamic Island is a new feature for iPhone 14 and iOS 16.
