I am using Geofencing for one of my application. But I got one issue in it. My application is not called - (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didDetermineState:(CLRegionState)state forRegion:(CLRegion *)region when application is in Background mode.
I check for Background app refresh flag is ON in settings.
Below is my code:
- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didDetermineState:(CLRegionState)state forRegion:(CLRegion *)region
if (state == CLRegionStateInside)
{
NSLog(#"is in target region");
UILocalNotification *notification = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
notification.alertBody = #"You are IN of REGION";
notification.fireDate = [NSDate date];
NSTimeZone* timezone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
notification.timeZone = timezone;
notification.alertAction = #"Show";
notification.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:notification];
}
else
{
NSLog(#"is out of target region");
UILocalNotification *notification = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
notification.alertBody = #"You are OUT of REGION";
notification.fireDate = [NSDate date];
NSTimeZone* timezone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
notification.timeZone = timezone;
notification.alertAction = #"Show";
notification.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:notification];
}
}
CLLocationManager is set properly. I reseach on it, but didn't get proper soluction for my proble. Can anyone help me in it?
Thanks
I solved my issue. It's because I have marked Location Update in backgournd.

I wanted to have two local notification ,both have different time ,let say my first notification will give alert after 1 minute and the second will give alert after 2 minutes.
I have tried it to create two in appDelegate but only first one is giving me the notification and not the second one .
How can I achieve this ?
Yes It is Possible to set two LocalNotification in any iOS Application
See below method by which you can set multiple LocalNotifications
You just Need to pass required parameter to this method.
- (void)setAlarmFor:(NSArray*)datesArray forTime:(NSString*)atTime notificationName:(NSString*)name
{
for(int dayIndex=0;dayIndex <[datesArray count];dayIndex++)
{
Class cls = NSClassFromString(#"UILocalNotification");//
if (cls != nil) {
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setLocale:[[[NSLocale alloc] initWithLocaleIdentifier:#"en_US_POSIX"] autorelease]];
NSString* dateStr=[datesArray objectAtIndex:dayIndex];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd"];
NSDate *tempDate = [dateFormatter dateFromString:dateStr];
NSString *tempString = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:tempDate];
tempString = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%# %#",tempString,atTime];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm a"];
NSDate *firetAtThisDate = [dateFormatter dateFromString:tempString];
UILocalNotification *localNotif = [[cls alloc] init];
localNotif.fireDate =firetAtThisDate;//here set the Date at which mnotification fire;
NSLog(#"Notification date is:%#",firetAtThisDate);
localNotif.alertBody =name;
localNotif.alertAction = #"Your'Alert message";
localNotif.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
localNotif.applicationIconBadgeNumber = 1;
localNotif.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
NSDictionary *userDict = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:tempString
forKey:tempString];//by using this we can further cancel the Notification
localNotif.userInfo = userDict;
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:localNotif];
[localNotif release];
[dateFormatter release];
}
}
}
And In Appdelegate Class Prepare Action what you want as Notification Fire
//This Below Line will goes to the Appdelegate DidFinishLaunching Method
Class cls = NSClassFromString(#"UILocalNotification");
if (cls)
{
UILocalNotification *notification = [launchOptions objectForKey:
UIApplicationLaunchOptionsLocalNotificationKey];
if (notification)
{
//do what you want
}
}
application.applicationIconBadgeNumber = 0;
//End of Appdelegate DidFinishLaunching Method.
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didReceiveLocalNotification:(UILocalNotification *)notification {
application.applicationIconBadgeNumber = 0;
//do what you want
}
sure , you use one or more local notifications in your app. try this code in your project
-(void) setLocalNotification
{
NSTimeInterval todayTimeIntervel=[[NSDate date]timeIntervalSince1970];
NSTimeInterval nextOneMinTimeIntervel;
nextOneMinTimeIntervel = todayTimeIntervel + 60 ;
NSTimeInterval nexttwoMinTimeIntervel;
nexttwoMinTimeIntervel = todayTimeIntervel + 60*3;
NSDate *date1 = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSince1970:nextOneMinTimeIntervel];
NSDate *date2 = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSince1970:nexttwoMinTimeIntervel];
NSDateFormatter *dateFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormat setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm a"];
NSString *strDate1 = [dateFormat stringFromDate:date1];
NSString *strDate2 = [dateFormat stringFromDate:date2];
NSArray *arr = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:strDate1,strDate2, nil];
NSArray *titleArr = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:#"First LocalNotification",#"Second LocalNotification", nil];
for (int i =0; i < 2; i++)
{
NSMutableDictionary *dic=[NSMutableDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:[arr objectAtIndex:i],#"dateStr",[titleArr objectAtIndex:i],#"title", nil];
[self scheduleLocalNotification:dic];
}
}
-(void) scheduleLocalNotification:(NSMutableDictionary*) dic
{
UILocalNotification *localNotif = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
NSDateFormatter *dateFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormat setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm a"];
NSLog(#"%#", [dateFormat dateFromString:[dic objectForKey:#"dateStr"]]);
localNotif.fireDate = [dateFormat dateFromString:[dic objectForKey:#"dateStr"]];
localNotif.timeZone = [NSTimeZone systemTimeZone];
localNotif.alertAction = #"View";
localNotif.alertBody = [dic objectForKey:#"title"];
localNotif.userInfo = dic;
NSLog(#"value of infoDic %#",dic);
localNotif.repeatInterval = NSDayCalendarUnit;
// Schedule the notification
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:localNotif];
}
// get app instance
UIApplication *app = [UIApplication sharedApplication];
// create local notif
UILocalNotification *notification = [[[UILocalNotification alloc] init] autorelease];
if (notification) {
NSDate *oneMinuteFromNow = [[NSDate date] dateByAddingTimeInterval:60];
notification.fireDate = oneMinuteFromNow;
notification.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
NSString *notificationMessage = #"First";
notification.alertBody = notificationMessage;
notification.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
// schedule notification
[app scheduleLocalNotification:notification];
// fire notification right away
[app presentLocalNotificationNow:notification];
}
UILocalNotification *notification1 = [[[UILocalNotification alloc] init] autorelease];
if (notification1) {
NSDate *oneMinuteFromNow1 = [[NSDate date] dateByAddingTimeInterval:120];
notification1.fireDate = oneMinuteFromNow1;
notification1.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
NSString *notificationMessage1 = #"Second";
notification1.alertBody = notificationMessage1;
notification1.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
// schedule notification
[app scheduleLocalNotification:notification1];
// fire notification right away
[app presentLocalNotificationNow:notification1];
}
By writing this you ll get one notification after 1min and second one after 2 min. In "didReceiveLocalNotification" method you can check the notification type and can show alert msg.
Hope this will help you.
Yes you can use the multiple local notification in your application.
Check this link.
Hope it helpfull for you
I'm using UILocalNotifications in iPhone to create an alarm. Alarm is scheduled when I click a UIButton. My issue is that – application:didReceiveLocalNotification: is called when I click this button, that is when I create a local notification. But , – application:didReceiveLocalNotification: should be called only when the notification time is reached. I checked it on both simulator and device and got the same results. Can anyone help me with this...thanks in advance.
-(void)createalarm:(NSString *)datend_time:(NSString *)message//creating alarm
{
NSLog(#"created!!!!!!!!!!!!!");
NSString *datestr = datend_time;
NSString *textstr = message;
NSDateFormatter *formatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc]init];
[formatter setDateFormat:#"MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm a"];
NSDate *alerttime = [formatter dateFromString:datestr];
UIApplication * app = [UIApplication sharedApplication];
UILocalNotification *notification = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
if (notification)
{
notification.fireDate = alerttime;
//notification.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
notification.repeatInterval = 0;
notification.alertBody = textstr;
notification.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
[app scheduleLocalNotification:notification];
[app presentLocalNotificationNow:notification];
}
}
-(void)application:(UIApplication *)application didReceiveLocalNotification: (UILocalNotification *)notification
{
NSLOG(#"delegate called")
}
It is because you call
[app presentLocalNotificationNow:notification];
So it shows the notification right after you created it. Remove this line of code.
[app scheduleLocalNotification:notification]; will work just fine and will shot the notification at fireDate.
Here is an example of NSLocalnotification:
-(void) scheduleNotificationForDate: (NSDate*)date {
/* Here we cancel all previously scheduled notifications */
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] cancelAllLocalNotifications];
UILocalNotification *localNotification = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
localNotification.fireDate = date;
NSLog(#"Notification will be shown on: %#",localNotification.fireDate);
localNotification.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
localNotification.alertBody = [NSString stringWithFormat:
#"Your notification message"];
localNotification.alertAction = NSLocalizedString(#"View details", nil);
/* Here we set notification sound and badge on the app's icon "-1"
means that number indicator on the badge will be decreased by one
- so there will be no badge on the icon */
localNotification.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
localNotification.applicationIconBadgeNumber = -1;
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:localNotification];
}
Make sure that the date you are setting is not in the past!
I am new in iPhone application development. I am doing alarm application. In this application I am using local notification. I am calling notification method in done button action. Now I clicked done button means notification fired correctly. Then again clicked mean also fired, again and again press means working wrongly, but I am used notification fire date time same time. In this time completed means again user click done button means again triggered notification.
I want to fire that particular time. Can you please help me.
Here I am using this source code.
-(IBAction)doneButton
{
[self scheduledNotification];
}
-(void)scheduledNotification

Resource *resourceLoader = [[Resource alloc] init];
NSDictionary *prefDic = [resourceLoader getPlistDataAsDictionary:#"preference"];

{
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] cancelAllLocalNotifications];
Class cls = NSClassFromString(#"UILocalNotification");
if (cls != nil)
{
NSString *musicName;
//NSDate *selectedDateTime = [[NSDate alloc]init];
selectedDateTime = [prefDic objectForKey:#"alarmtime"];

musicName = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#%#",[prefDic objectForKey:#"alarmmusic"],#".wav" ];
NSLog(#"musicname %#", musicName);
NSLog(#"saravanan periyasamy123 %#", selectedDateTime);
UILocalNotification *notif = [[cls alloc] init];
notif.fireDate = selectedDateTime; /* time for fireDate*/
NSLog(#"selectedtime %#",selectedDateTime);
notif.timeZone = [NSTimeZone systemTimeZone];
notif.alertBody = #"Alarm";
notif.alertAction = #"Show me";
notif.repeatInterval = 0;
notif.soundName = musicName;

hi i not understand what your question but here i post my one example code for LocalNotification just compare it or use this example....
here when user click done button then call "btnGo_Clicked" method
-(IBAction)btnGo_Clicked:(id)sender{
NSLog(#"\n ----------->>Go Clicked");
Class cls = NSClassFromString(#"UILocalNotification");
if (cls != nil) {
NSString *kRemindMeNotificationDataKey = #"kRemindMeNotificationDataKey";
NSDateComponents *dc = [[NSCalendar currentCalendar] components:NSDayCalendarUnit|NSMonthCalendarUnit|NSYearCalendarUnit|NSHourCalendarUnit|NSMinuteCalendarUnit|NSSecondCalendarUnit|NSQuarterCalendarUnit fromDate:[exdatePicker date]];
[dc setDay:dc.day - 1];
NSDate *noticeDate = [[NSCalendar currentCalendar] dateFromComponents:dc];
NSDateFormatter* dateFormatterstring = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatterstring setDateFormat:#"dd-MM-yyyy hh:mm:ss a"];
NSString *dateString = [dateFormatterstring stringFromDate:noticeDate];
txtExpirayDate.text = dateString;
UILocalNotification *notification = [[cls alloc] init];
notification.fireDate = noticeDate;
notification.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
notification.alertBody = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%# your Licence Expiry Date is Tommorow",txtLicence.text];
notification.alertAction = #"Show me";
notification.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
notification.applicationIconBadgeNumber = 1;
NSDictionary *userDict = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:txtLicence.text forKey:kRemindMeNotificationDataKey];
notification.userInfo = userDict;
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:notification];
[notification release];
}
exdatePicker.hidden=YES;
}
do some changes and you got your output
i hope this answer help you...
:)
Remove this line if you want multiple press on button.
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] cancelAllLocalNotifications];
because its removing your all previous notifications.
I did this for getting alert on set time. But it's not alerting on time. I am setting time from datepicker. How I can solved this problem?
- (void)scheduleNotificationWithInterval:(int)minutesBefore {
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] cancelAllLocalNotifications];
UILocalNotification *localNotif = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
if (localNotif == nil)
return;
NSLog(#"Date %#",datePicker.date);
localNotif.fireDate = datePicker.date;
localNotif.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
if ([freq isEqualToString:#"Daily"]) {
localNotif.repeatInterval = NSDayCalendarUnit;
}
localNotif.alertBody = #"Radio Asia Alarm";
localNotif.alertAction = #"Ok";
localNotif.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
NSDictionary *infoDict = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:#"Radio Asia Alarm" forKey:#"Message"];
localNotif.userInfo = infoDict;
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:localNotif];
[localNotif release];
}
Also I call this method where I click button after set time and date
[self scheduleNotificationWithInterval:1];
I am not getting alert. What I can do?
Are you sure that you are setting the right timezone? Im sure the problem could be there
Have you tried without setting it?
In my app i want to set up a local notification on everyday at a particular time.Time is the one that selected from a Time picker.Is there any method for this.Plese help me.
Just specify the firedate as the date from your UIDatePicker and NSDayCalendarUnit as the repeatinterval:
UILocalNotification *localNotif = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
if (localNotif == nil)
return;
localNotif.fireDate = datePicker.date;
localNotif.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
localNotif.alertBody = #"This is the Alert-Body Text"];
localNotif.alertAction = #"Button-Text";
localNotif.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
localNotif.applicationIconBadgeNumber = 1;
localNotif.repeatInterval = NSDayCalendarUnit;
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:localNotif];
[localNotif release];
you can set Local Notifications.
Right out of apple's sample code:
- (void)scheduleNotificationWithItem:(ToDoItem *)item interval:(int)minutesBefore {
NSCalendar *calendar = [NSCalendar autoupdatingCurrentCalendar];
NSDateComponents *dateComps = [[NSDateComponents alloc] init];
[dateComps setDay:item.day];
[dateComps setMonth:item.month];
[dateComps setYear:item.year];
[dateComps setHour:item.hour];
[dateComps setMinute:item.minute];
NSDate *itemDate = [calendar dateFromComponents:dateComps];
[dateComps release];
UILocalNotification *localNotif = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
if (localNotif == nil)
return;
localNotif.fireDate = [itemDate addTimeInterval:-(minutesBefore*60)];
localNotif.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
localNotif.alertBody = [NSString stringWithFormat:NSLocalizedString(#"%# in %i minutes.", nil),
item.eventName, minutesBefore];
localNotif.alertAction = NSLocalizedString(#"View Details", nil);
localNotif.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
localNotif.applicationIconBadgeNumber = 1;
NSDictionary *infoDict = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:item.eventName forKey:ToDoItemKey];
localNotif.userInfo = infoDict;
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:localNotif];
[localNotif release];
}
you can set a local notification for a specific timstamp.
you have to check userinfo dictionary in applicationDidFinishedLaunching for any notification data.
you have to handle:
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didReceiveLocalNotification:(UILocalNotification *)notification
