Actually I am developing an app in which pop-up generated at scheduled time but my client want to increase the time duration of notification banner which is displaying when app is running in background.
thanks for help
You can't. If you need a notification to be more intrusive than a banner, use an alert.

I'm working on app that will manage quite a lot of local notifications. So since I don't want to waste user's battery, I'm wondering - is there any possibility to don't turn on the screen? So the notification still will be fired and the banner will be on the screen but only if user will unlock the phone. It's kind of "minor notification" that are still should be displayed but they're not so important to wake up the phone.
And if there's such possibility - wouldn't it be what Apple calls "bad user experience". You know, kind of confusion that notification didn't wake up the phone's screen?
And yes, sound still should exist, because it should work as reminder.
Thanks in advance.
I have in my app a video chat.
And for the incoming call i'm using remote push notifications.
Is there a way to leave the notification on screen for a longer time then the default?
I need it to be on screen for about 20 seconds.
Thanks
I'm looking for a way to open (or display a notification from) an iphone app when a low battery level notification occurs. Is it possible to perform it if my app is running in background ? I found that an app can't refresh after some minutes in background, but I wonder how many apps can display notifications by their own without being opened.
Thanks.
Is there any way to show a particular type(some important) of push notification for some 5-10 seconds on the iOS device screen when app is in background.
No, the time is fixed.
You cannot customize it - a push-notification should be a short message that in the best case makes the user tap it and open the app. There is actually not really a need for a longer time. Keep it short, simple and interesting and the user will react accordingly anyway. A longer time should not really make any difference other than people getting annoyed because your messages are always staying on top, blocking other messages and wasting screen space.
I'm diving into iOS development and am building my own alarm clock app to become familiar with the platform and SDK. One of the API's I'm currently learning is the Local Notifications API, which I assume is the same API Apple uses to implement their alarms in their Clock app.
What I don't understand is how they implement their "Snooze" functionality. As I understand it, Local Notifications allow you to present to the user an alert box that has at most two buttons when your app isn't running in the foreground, one button for dismissing the alert and one button for taking the user to your app. In Apple's Clock app, however, it appears the user is presented with an alert box with two buttons, one button to dismiss the alarm and one button to "Snooze" and reschedule the alarm without launching the Clock app. My questions are...
When the user clicks the "Snooze" button, how do you think Apple is rescheduling the Local Notification for the alarm without launching the Clock app? Do you think they're using their own private APIs that circumvent the limitations of the Local Notifications that only allow for two options? Or do you think they're launching the Clock app to reschedule the Local Notification, they just don't show the app launching and quitting?
The documentation says the "alertAction" property of the Local Notification is the text to be displayed on the right button of the alert box and the slider bar of the lock screen. In Apple's Clock app, however, the "Snooze" text is the left button in the alert box, nor is it the Slider bar text. Why is this backwards?
Thanks so much in advance for your thoughts!
The local notification API does not have any mechanism to do what you want. The alarm clock app is almost certainly not using any of the infrastructure for local notifications, it predates them. Even if it is factored onto some of the infrastructure provided by local notifications, it is certainly not using the public APIs.
You should file a bug requesting that this functionality be added.
