Compartir
Comparte una Live Activity con otros usuarios de PushWard mediante códigos de duración limitada. Los destinatarios ven las mismas superficies de Dynamic Island y pantalla de bloqueo, actualizadas en tiempo real — y unirse como lector es gratis.
Recipients join free. Redeeming a viewer share code does not require a subscription — only the person creating shares needs one. Each owner can share with up to 5 free recipients; recipients who have their own subscription don't count toward that limit.
How sharing works
- Generate a share code. In the PushWard app, open an activity and tap Share. Pick a role, an optional use limit, and an expiry, and the app generates a short alphanumeric code plus a share link.
- Send the code or link. A share link looks like
https://pushward.app/share/CODEand opens straight into the PushWard app on the recipient's iPhone. The code can also be typed in manually under Settings > Sharing > Join with Code. - The recipient joins. Redeeming the code adds the activity to the recipient's account. If the activity is currently ongoing, it appears as a Live Activity on their Lock Screen and Dynamic Island right away — every update, state change, and completion push is mirrored in real time.
Roles
| Role | Can do |
|---|---|
| Viewer (default) | See the activity and receive all its Live Activity pushes. Read-only. |
| Editor | Everything a viewer can, plus send updates to the activity. |
Who needs Premium
Sharing splits cleanly along the create/join line: creating any kind of share requires an active subscription, while joining as a viewer is free.
| Action | Subscription needed? |
|---|---|
| Create a share code (any role) or grant access directly | Yes — the owner needs an active subscription |
| Redeem a viewer share code | No — recipients join free |
| Redeem an editor share code | Yes — the recipient needs their own subscription |
| Redeem a pattern share code | Yes — the recipient needs their own subscription |
| Be upgraded from viewer to editor by the owner | Yes — the recipient needs their own subscription |
The free-recipient allowance is per owner: each owner can have up to 5 distinct free recipients across all of their shared activities at any one time. Recipients with an active subscription of their own never count against it, and removing a free recipient frees the slot immediately. Free accounts also have a cap on how many shared activities they can hold at once from all owners combined — it's set well above typical household use, so in practice only the per-owner free-recipient limit matters.
Share code options
| Option | Values | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Role | viewer or editor | viewer |
| Max uses | How many times the code can be redeemed | 1 |
| Expiry | 1 minute to 7 days | 24 hours |
Pattern shares
Instead of sharing one activity, a pattern share grants access to every activity
whose slug matches a wildcard pattern — current and future. For example, deploy-* shares every deployment activity you'll ever create, so a teammate joins
once and automatically sees each new deploy. Pattern shares are created from Settings > Sharing in the app and use the same code/link mechanics; redeeming
one requires the recipient to have a subscription.
Revoking and leaving
- Owners can delete a share code at any time, and can revoke any individual recipient's access from the activity's share sheet. Revoking removes the activity from the recipient's account.
- Recipients can leave a shared activity at any time. A free recipient who no longer holds any of an owner's shares stops counting toward that owner's free-recipient limit.
Delivery and quotas
- Recipients receive push-to-start for ongoing shared activities — the Live Activity appears on their devices without them opening the app.
- Receiving a shared activity consumes none of the recipient's quota. Free recipients keep their full monthly allowance for their own activities.
- Updates are charged to the owner: one Live Activity update slot per update, regardless of how many recipients the activity has.
