GET COMPETITIVE

See what your friends are playing

Now it’s easier than ever with Game Center.

Wondering if your buddies are hooping it up in NBA 2K Mobile? Or which achievements they’ve earned recently in Sonic Forces? Find out with Game Center’s Activity feature!

Activity enables you to see – in near real time – the progress your Game Center friends are making. Just open Game Center from a compatible game to view what everyone’s been playing, the achievements you’re working towards or have completed, and where everyone sits on the leaderboards. Here’s a look at what else is new.

Buddies’ gaming feats are a glance away with the Activity widget.

Work the widget

Set up Game Center’s Activity widget on your Home Screen to put feed notifications front and centre. See that a pal just started playing Pixel Pro Golf? With a few taps, you can hop into the game and invite ’em to a multiplayer match.

New ways in

Tapping the welcome banner that appears when you open a Game Center–compatible game (such as the ones below) now takes you directly to the Activity dashboard. Check out friends’ accomplishments and compare your progress.
