# body

The main text that appears on the alert for a Live Activity update on Apple Watch.

## Declaration

```swift
var body: LocalizedStringResource
```

## Discussion

Discussion Apple Watch displays this string briefly as part of the alert that appears when you update a Live Activity and choose to alert people about the update. Choose text that’s easy to read at a glance. For example, a pizza delivery app could use “Your order will arrive in 25 minutes.”
