Local notification repeating every day - iOS - ios

I'm using location service in background to update my app every day. In background it parses the XML and sets local notification at 18h, but only if parsed data is different then "No warning". But I'm getting every day notification with same alert body even when I shouldn't. This is how I push notifications.
If(![self.city isEqualToString:#"No warning"]){
// We only need 1 notification
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] cancelAllLocalNotifications];
NSCalendar *gregCalendar = [[NSCalendar alloc]initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSGregorianCalendar];
NSDateComponents *dateComponents = [gregCalendar components: NSYearCalendarUnit | NSMonthCalendarUnit | NSDayCalendarUnit | NSHourCalendarUnit | NSMinuteCalendarUnit fromDate:[NSDate date]];
[dateComponents setYear:[dateComponents year]];
[dateComponents setMonth:[dateComponents month]];
[dateComponents setDay:[dateComponents day]];
[dateComponents setHour:18];
[dateComponents setMinute:0];
UIDatePicker *dd = [[UIDatePicker alloc]init];
[dd setDate:[gregCalendar dateFromComponents:dateComponents]];
UILocalNotification *notification = [[UILocalNotification alloc]init];
notification.alertBody = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%# %#",self.date,self.city];
notification.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
notification.repeatInterval = 0;
[notification setFireDate:dd.date];
[notification setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone]];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:notification];
}

Reset UILocationNotification fire date set for everyday

I've a function in my app which allowed to use for max. 3 times/day to a user – once he/she used it for all 3 times, they can't not use it again until next day.
I'm using UILocationNotification in my app, to show a notification each day. If a user open my app, and he didn't use those functions for that particular day then, I'll set up notification to fire at exactly 4.00pm for that day. But now what I want is, while user is using the app – if he/she used that function for 3 times then the notification should not get fire and it should set for the next day at the same time.
This is how I'm showing up local notification.
- (void) fireNoteForEachDay {
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] cancelAllLocalNotifications];
UILocalNotification *notif = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
NSCalendar *gregCalendar = [[NSCalendar alloc] initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSGregorianCalendar];
NSDateComponents *dateComponents = [gregCalendar components:(NSYearCalendarUnit | NSMonthCalendarUnit | NSDayCalendarUnit | NSHourCalendarUnit | NSMinuteCalendarUnit) fromDate:[NSDate date]];
[dateComponents setHour:16];
[dateComponents setMinute:0];
[dateComponents setSecond:0];
[notif setFireDate:[gregCalendar dateFromComponents:dateComponents]];
[notif setAlertBody:#"Come back to the app – to use '<function name>' !"];
[notif setRepeatInterval:NSDayCalendarUnit];
[notif setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone]];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:notif];
}
If I use all three functions at 3.00pm today – so now it should reset for tomorrow's date at 4.00pm.
How do I do that?
Get tomorrow
NSDateComponents *tomorrowComponents = [NSDateComponents new];
tomorrowComponents.day = 1 ;
NSCalendar *gregCalendar = [[NSCalendar alloc] initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSGregorianCalendar];
NSDate *tomorrow = [gregCalendar dateByAddingComponents:tomorrowComponents toDate:[NSDate date] options:0];
Add time for tomorrow
NSDateComponents *tomorrowAtTimeComponent = [gregCalendar components:(NSEraCalendarUnit|NSYearCalendarUnit|NSMonthCalendarUnit|NSDayCalendarUnit) fromDate:tomorrow];
tomorrowAtTimeComponent.hour = 16;
tomorrowAtTimeComponent.minute = 0;
NSDate *tomorrowAt4pm = [gregCalendar dateFromComponents:tomorrowAtTimeComponent];
Reset note
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] cancelAllLocalNotifications];
UILocalNotification *notif = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
[notif setFireDate:tomorrowAt4pm];
[notif setAlertBody:#"Come back to the app – to use '<function name>' !"];
[notif setRepeatInterval:NSDayCalendarUnit];
[notif setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone]];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:notif];

UILocalNotification Schehduling issue

I have Scheduled my local notification to fire at 4.00 pm and want that notification daily at 4.00 pm but the notification fires before time at 3.44 pm , 3.47 pm etc.
here is the code -
NSCalendar *calendar = [NSCalendar currentCalendar];
NSDateComponents *dateComponents = [calendar components:( NSYearCalendarUnit | NSMonthCalendarUnit | NSDayCalendarUnit ) fromDate:self.datePicker.date];
NSDateComponents *timeComponents = [calendar components:( NSHourCalendarUnit | NSMinuteCalendarUnit | NSSecondCalendarUnit) fromDate:self.datePicker.date];
[dateComponents setHour:[timeComponents hour]];
[dateComponents setMinute:[timeComponents minute]];
[dateComponents setSecond:0.0];
UILocalNotification *localNotification = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
localNotification.alertBody = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"How are you feeling?"];
localNotification.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
localNotification.fireDate = [calendar dateFromComponents:dateComponents];
localNotification.repeatInterval = kCFCalendarUnitDay;
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:localNotification];
Try this:
NSDate *myDate = [NSDate date]; // Set your time here
myDate = [myDate dateByAddingTimeInterval:1*24*60*60];
UILocalNotification *notif = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
notif.fireDate = myDate;
notif.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
notif.alertBody = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"How are you feeling?"];
notif.alertBody = #"Reminder is set";
notif.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
notif.repeatInterval = NSDayCalendarUnit;
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:notif];
Hope it will help you.

Displaying UIlocalNotification badge number on top of the button

I am new to UILocalNotification concept.
I have a reminder button,by clicking it iam calling the UILocalNotification code......
-(void)LocalNotificationMethod{
NSCalendar *calendar = [NSCalendar autoupdatingCurrentCalendar];
// Get the current date
NSDate *pickerDate = self.selectedDate;
NSLog(#" self.selectedDate %#", self.selectedDate);
// Break the date up into components
NSDateComponents *dateComponents = [calendar components:( NSYearCalendarUnit | NSMonthCalendarUnit | NSDayCalendarUnit )
fromDate:pickerDate];
NSDateComponents *timeComponents = [calendar components:( NSHourCalendarUnit | NSMinuteCalendarUnit | NSSecondCalendarUnit )
fromDate:pickerDate];
// Set up the fire time
NSDateComponents *dateComps = [[NSDateComponents alloc] init];
[dateComps setDay:[dateComponents day]];
[dateComps setMonth:[dateComponents month]];
[dateComps setYear:[dateComponents year]];
[dateComps setHour:[timeComponents hour]];
// Notification will fire in one minute
[dateComps setMinute:[timeComponents minute]];
[dateComps setSecond:[timeComponents second]];
NSDate *itemDate = [calendar dateFromComponents:dateComps];
UILocalNotification *localNotif = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
if (localNotif == nil)
return;
localNotif.fireDate = itemDate;
localNotif.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
// Notification details
localNotif.alertBody = [_titleTextFieldObj text];
// Set the action button
localNotif.alertAction = #"View";
localNotif.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
localNotif.applicationIconBadgeNumber = 1;
// Specify custom data for the notification
NSDictionary *infoDict = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:#"someValue" forKey:#"someKey"];
localNotif.userInfo = infoDict;
NSArray *notificationArray = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduledLocalNotifications];
//UILocalNotification *notif = [notificationArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
NSLog(#"notif %#",notificationArray);
//[cell.textLabel setText:notif.alertBody];
//[cell.detailTextLabel setText:[notif.fireDate description]];
//NSDate *datee=notif.fireDate;
//NSLog(#"notify date is %#",datee);
// Schedule the notification
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:localNotif];
}
iam getting the alert.But i want to display the notification badge in that reminder button.
If i got two notification then i want to get the 2badge numbers in the button.
not in the app icon...
can anyone help me......
Try the CustomBadge, that builds and renders custom badges using Core Graphics. They're just UIView subclasses, so you lay them out using their frame just like any other UIView subclass.
You can add Custom badge in your application using CocoaPod

Set local notification for exactly 84 days on daily basis for iOS app

I am working on app which having functionality to show local notification.
In that, I set local notification for specific date after that I want to show it for next consecutively 84 days (12 weeks).For this I am using NSDayCalendarUnit repeat type. But those reminders are still showing after 84 days.
I tried - (void)applicationDidBecomeActive:(UIApplication *)application method to cancel notification but It needs at least one interaction with app after 84 days to Know the the system date.
Please give some solution or guideline on it. Following code I am using to set reminders.
NSCalendar *calendar = [NSCalendar autoupdatingCurrentCalendar];
// Break the date up into components
NSDateComponents *dateComponents = [calendar components:( NSYearCalendarUnit | NSMonthCalendarUnit | NSDayCalendarUnit )
fromDate:cDate];
NSDateComponents *timeComponents = [calendar components:( NSHourCalendarUnit | NSMinuteCalendarUnit | NSSecondCalendarUnit )
fromDate:cDate];
// Set up the fire time
NSDateComponents *dateComps = [[NSDateComponents alloc] init];
[dateComps setDay:[dateComponents day]];
[dateComps setMonth:[dateComponents month]];
[dateComps setYear:[dateComponents year]];
[dateComps setHour:[timeComponents hour]];
// Notification will fire in one minute
[dateComps setMinute:[timeComponents minute]];
[dateComps setSecond:0];
Class cls = NSClassFromString(#"UILocalNotification");
if (cls != nil) {
UILocalNotification *notif = [[cls alloc] init];
notif.fireDate = [calendar dateFromComponents:dateComps];;
notif.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
notif.alertBody =#"take your medicine";
notif.alertAction = #"View";
NSLog(#"SOUND=%d",[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] boolForKey:SWITCH_SOUND]);
if([[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] boolForKey:SWITCH_SOUND]||cId>=100)
notif.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
notif.repeatInterval=NSCalendarUnitDay;
NSDictionary *userDict = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%d",cId]
forKey:NOTIFICATION_KEY];
notif.userInfo = userDict;
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:notif];
NSLog(#"Set reminder %d For Date =%#",cId,cDate);

Scheduled Local Notifications Issue - Firing on a daily basis issue

I've set up multiple Local Notifications on my AppDelegate for my universal app, 14 to be exact. These notifications have specific times and weekdays when they should fire.
The problem is that all of these notifications fire on a daily basis.
For example, I have a notification set for Saturday morning, but it has been showing up daily.
Please give me a suggestion or direction as to why my notifications are firing daily? I can't seem to find a solution.
Please check out my code, thanks!

To fire notifications at a specific day of the week at a specific time, the following code should work:
NSCalendar *gregCalendar = [[NSCalendar alloc]initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSGregorianCalendar];
NSDateComponents *dateComponent = [gregCalendar components:NSYearCalendarUnit | NSWeekCalendarUnit fromDate:[NSDate date]];
[dateComponent setWeekday:2]; // For Monday
[dateComponent setHour:11];
[dateComponent setMinute:44];
NSDate *fireDate = [gregCalendar dateFromComponents:dateComponent];
UILocalNotification *notification = [[UILocalNotification alloc]init];
[notification setAlertBody:#"GOOD MORNING!"];
[notification setFireDate:fireDate];
notification.repeatInterval = NSWeekCalendarUnit;
[notification setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone]];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:notification];
The first part computes a date that is either on the next or on the previous monday.
The second part defines the notification with a repeat interval of one week.
It does not matter if the fire date is the previous monday, the "next fire date" will automatically adjusted to the next week. (You can verify that with NSLog(#"%#", notification).)
These lines are causing the notifications to repeat on a daily interval:
notification.repeatInterval = NSWeekdayCalendarUnit;
remove those lines and it should fix your problem. The docs say exactly what this property does:
If you assign an calendar unit such as weekly (NSWeekCalendarUnit) or yearly (NSYearCalendarUnit), the system reschedules the notification for delivery at the specified interval. The default value is 0, which means don't repeat.
