# Configuring Group Activities Leverage FaceTime infrastructure to create coordinated experiences users can share. ## Overview Use to bring your app’s users together to enjoy new and exciting shared experiences that are built atop [SharePlay](https://developer.apple.com/shareplay) and the FaceTime infrastructure. For example, a karaoke app might offer karaoke parties where several participants take part simultaneously from their own devices. Represent shareable activities by creating objects that conform to the protocol and, after a shared activity begins, use to synchronize that activity across participants’ devices. ### Add the Group Activities capability to your target Follow the steps in [Add a capability](/documentation/Xcode/adding-capabilities-to-your-app#Add-a-capability) to add the capability to your app’s target, making sure you select the Group Activities capability from Xcode’s Capabilities library. This capability is available on all platforms except watchOS, and you must add it to an app target — Group Activities aren’t available in widgets, extensions, or App Clips.  After you add the Group Activities capability, Xcode updates your target’s entitlements file to include the entitlement. If Xcode automatically manages the signing of your app, it also enables Group Activities for your app’s App ID. > Note: If you remove the Group Activities capability in Xcode, you must > manually update your App ID’s configuration in your developer account to disable > Group Activities. When you add the Group Activities capability, there are additional steps you must complete before your app’s users can start experiencing shared activities; for more information on these steps, see and . --- Copyright © 2026 Apple Inc.
