iOS create local notification when app exit with 10 days

Question

I am create a local notification with 10 days and at 15:30 when app exit. Here is a code:

    NSCalendar *calendar = [[NSCalendar alloc] initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSGregorianCalendar];
    NSDate *now = [NSDate date];
    float day = 10;
    NSDate *newDate = [now dateByAddingTimeInterval:60*60*24*day];

    NSDateComponents *componentsForFireDate = [calendar components:(NSYearCalendarUnit | NSWeekCalendarUnit |  NSHourCalendarUnit | NSMinuteCalendarUnit | NSSecondCalendarUnit | NSWeekdayCalendarUnit) fromDate: newDate];

    [componentsForFireDate setHour: 15];
    [componentsForFireDate setMinute:30];
    [componentsForFireDate setSecond:0];
    NSDate *fireDateOfNotification = [calendar dateFromComponents:componentsForFireDate];
    UILocalNotification* localNotification = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
    localNotification.fireDate = fireDateOfNotification;
    localNotification.repeatInterval = NSWeekCalendarUnit;
    localNotification.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
    localNotification.applicationIconBadgeNumber = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] applicationIconBadgeNumber] + 1;
    [[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:localNotification];

When I try change date & time in the my phone to the next day (now + 1), It's still show notification, next day, still show. I want local notification show each 10 days when app exit. Any suggests to fix this problems ?

localNotification.repeatInterval = NSCalendarUnitDay try this — Muhammad Salman, Jun 16 '16 at 08:37
@salmancs43: still show notification when I increase to the next day, not 10 days, another suggests ? — ZNApps, Jun 16 '16 at 08:49
You want to fire the notification after 10 days when app exit? — Muhammad Salman, Jun 16 '16 at 09:20
I have setup to fire the notification after 10 days when app exit, but incorrectly, It's still show notification each 1 day. — ZNApps, Jun 16 '16 at 09:25

try this code: your app open after 10 day notification fire and other 1 day fire.

 NSCalendar *calendar = [[NSCalendar alloc] initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSGregorianCalendar];

NSDateComponents *componentsForFireDate = [calendar components:( NSHourCalendarUnit | NSMinuteCalendarUnit | NSSecondCalendarUnit | NSCalendarUnitDay | NSCalendarUnitMonth | NSCalendarUnitYear) fromDate: [NSDate date]];
componentsForFireDate.day = componentsForFireDate.day + 10;
[componentsForFireDate setHour: 15];
[componentsForFireDate setMinute:30];
[componentsForFireDate setSecond:0];
NSDate *fireDateOfNotification = [calendar dateFromComponents:componentsForFireDate];
NSLog(@"Date: %@",fireDateOfNotification);
UILocalNotification* localNotification = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
localNotification.fireDate = fireDateOfNotification;
localNotification.alertBody = @"This is local notification!";
localNotification.repeatInterval = NSCalendarUnitDay;
localNotification.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
localNotification.applicationIconBadgeNumber = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] applicationIconBadgeNumber] + 1;
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:localNotification];

hope this code help you.

Will `componentsForFireDate.day += 10` cope with wrapping? – Droppy Jun 16 '16 at 09:09
I don't understand your response. – Droppy Jun 16 '16 at 09:11
componentsForFireDate.day += 10 and my both are same. your choice how to write. – Bhadresh Kathiriya Jun 16 '16 at 09:12
Yeah that wasn't my point. Will it cope with wrapping? For example what happens when `.day = 25` and `+= 10` makes it `35`? – Droppy Jun 16 '16 at 09:13
Thanks !!! Its work on the first times. After 10 days, a notification appear. But, user clear it, and the next day, notification still show. Any help ? – ZNApps Jun 16 '16 at 09:19
app doesn't open that after 10 day notification fire and continue notification fire next day up to app doesn't open and app open that start than after 10 day in loop. – Bhadresh Kathiriya Jun 16 '16 at 09:21

After changing the time in your system, please check the simulator time also. initially it not updated.

In simulator settings, General->language & region-> Advanced-> Automatica switch will be on mode. select off and on. then you simulator time will also change
