How to set multiple UILocalNotifications - ios

Question

In my app I am using UILocalNotifications. I want to set notifications for different days of the week.For that, I have different dates in an array. But I am getting wrong results. Is there anything wrong with my code. My code is
for(int counter=0 ;counter<[daysArray count]; counter++)
{
int day = [[daysArray objectAtIndex:counter] intValue];
NSDate *specificDate = [self getDateOfSpecificDay:day];
UILocalNotification *localNotification = [[UILocalNotification alloc]init];
localNotification.fireDate = specificDate;
localNotification.repeatInterval = NSWeekdayCalendarUnit;
localNotification.soundName = sound;
localNotification.alertBody = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",specificDate];
localNotification.alertAction = #"Show me the item";
localNotification.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
localNotification.applicationIconBadgeNumber = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] applicationIconBadgeNumber] + 1;
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:localNotification];
NSLog(#"%#",localNotification);
}

we have done something similiar to your question but i dont know it will help you or not..just try this **NSWeekdayCalendarUnit**i suggest you just refer my answer.
NSCalendar *gregCalendar = [[NSCalendar alloc] initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSGregorianCalendar];
NSDateComponents *dateComponent = [gregCalendar components:NSYearCalendarUnit|NSWeekCalendarUnit | NSMonthCalendarUnit | NSDayCalendarUnit | NSHourCalendarUnit | NSMinuteCalendarUnit fromDate:[NSDate date]];
NSArray *dobArray = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:#"02-08-2014", #"10-08-2014", #"14-08-2014", #"15-08-2014", #"16-08-2014", #"17-08-2014", #"18-08-2014", #"22-08-2014", #"28-08-2014", #"29-08-2014",nil];
NSArray *messagesArray = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:#"Literacy And Numeracy workshop for parents and children", #"raksha Bandhan", #"Tri Colour Dat(School celebration)", #"Independence day (School Holiday)", #"PTM/Book Exhibition", #"Janmastami", #"Parsi New Year- School Holiday", #"Clown Day", #"Eco Friendly Ganesha-School Holiday", #"Ganesh Chaturthi-School Holiday",nil];
for (NSString *dobStr in dobArray)
{
NSArray *components = [dobStr componentsSeparatedByString:#"-"];
if(components.count>2) {
NSInteger aDay = [[components objectAtIndex:0] integerValue];
NSInteger aMonth = [[components objectAtIndex:1] integerValue];
// NSInteger aYear = [[components objectAtIndex:2] integerValue];
if(aDay == [dateComponent day] && aMonth == [dateComponent month]) { // dob is here
[dateComponent setDay:aDay];
[dateComponent setMonth:aMonth];
[dateComponent setYear:[dateComponent year]];
[dateComponent setHour:16];
[dateComponent setMinute:54];
UIDatePicker *dp = [[UIDatePicker alloc] init];
[dp setDate:[gregCalendar dateFromComponents: dateComponent]];
UILocalNotification *notification = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
NSInteger index = [dobArray indexOfObject:dobStr];
// [notification setFireDate:[NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSinceNow:10]];
[notification setAlertBody:[messagesArray objectAtIndex:index]];
[notification setFireDate:dp.date];
[notification setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone]];
[application setScheduledLocalNotifications:[NSArray arrayWithObject:notification]];
return YES;
}
}
}

I Think here you are misusing the line localNotification.repeatInterval = NSWeekdayCalendarUnit;
it will let your notification repeat every day of week that is creating problem in your case. Please remove this line and try again it will work.
