How to use animation for dynamicI Island and widgets

I looked at all the apis that don't support animation, how does Top Widgets do it? Please ask Apple engineers to help, thank you

There is a hack some developers have figured out but it is not supported by the system and cannot be recommended. You can use something like a custom font with a countdown timer to provide a sort of animation every second but again, the types of animations in the video are not supported and can cause battery drain and other performance issues on your users devices.
