Site audit on iPhone
Start a crawl, leave the app and follow it on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island.
On this page
The Site audit crawls your site for technical problems that hold rankings back, then lists them in order of severity. Open it from Workspace → Technical health.
Run an audit
- 1
Open Site audit
Make sure the right site is selected in the site pill, then open Workspace → Site audit.
- 2
Choose how many pages
Set Pages to crawl and tap Run audit (or Run a new audit if you've run one before). The audit uses credits, so the app shows the cost first.

Leave the screen if you like
The audit moves from Queued to Crawling to Analyzing. You can go to another tab or lock your phone: the crawl keeps running and its results appear in Site audit when it's done.
Progress on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island
While an audit runs, a Live Activity shows its progress outside the app, even when the app is in the background:
| Where | What you see |
|---|---|
| Lock Screen | The site, a progress bar and a status line such as pages crawled out of the limit. When it finishes: the Health score with the number of critical issues and warnings. |
| Dynamic Island (compact) | An icon for the current phase and the crawled pages, for example 12/50, then the score when done. |
| Dynamic Island (expanded) | Touch and hold to see the site, the progress bar and the status line. |
Tap the Live Activity to open the Site audit for that site. When the crawl finishes you get Audit ready – tap to see results. Only one audit is shown at a time; starting a new crawl replaces the old one.
Reading the results
- Site health is the average page score: 100 for a clean page, 90 for notices only, 60 for a warning and 0 for a critical issue, minus points for site-wide problems.
- Issues by category groups problems such as status codes, redirects and broken links, titles and descriptions, speed, canonicals and internal links. Each issue explains Why it matters and How to fix, with the affected URLs.
- Add to tasks turns an issue into a task. Health over time compares crawls, and Re-run audit checks your fixes.
- Tap a page to inspect it, or use the related tools: Page inspector, Indexability, Page speed and Internal links.
