StickyCue: Lock Screen Cues
Show a priority reminder as a Lock Screen Live Activity, with repeated prompts and a deliberate hold-to-complete action.
Keeping one important task visible during a short period
StickyCue may suit someone whose ordinary reminders disappear into notification clutter. The documented workflow keeps a selected cue visible and adds departure timing or repeated prompts. Treat visibility and renewal as something to check on the actual device, because Live Activities and notifications follow system permissions and time limits.
Keep in mind: Live Activity duration, renewal and notification permissions can affect visibility. Repeated prompts and completion behavior were not tested.

Good for

- Departure reminders that benefit from staged prompts
Consider alternatives for
- A guarantee of permanent visibility or emergency notification delivery
Make the cue easy to recognize
Give one task a short, specific description and select the documented Lock Screen cue. A departure task can use staged countdowns so the reminder appears before it is time to leave.
Check what the system actually shows
Look at the locked device and review notification readiness and renewal behavior. The listing describes an eight-hour Live Activity boundary and a renewal feature; neither establishes uninterrupted visibility in every device state.
