Remove LocalNotification Badge Number from launcher icon - iphone

I am trying to add a feature in app in which whenever i made a note, it will Call a UILocalNotification after few days (Hardcoded). Now, on launcher Icons i can see a red badge with marker "1". How can I remove this badge?
Best Regards

[UIApplication sharedApplication].applicationIconBadgeNumber = 0;
Add that line in whatever code handles the user's interaction with the local notification. If you want the badge to be cleared when the local notification fires, you can't (because setting the notification's applicationIconBadgeNumber property to 0 would simply mean "don't change the existing badge.")

So looks like it possible to show UIAlert from background and anybody can answer me how?
No you can not display an UIAlertView from the background, but you can scheudule a UILocalNotification.
Just set the fireDate property of the UILocalNotification to the current date and it will be displayed directly.

How can I temporarily disable all local notification scheduled by my iPhone app?

Is there any method to temporarily disable all local notifications created by an iPhone app? I need to re enable them all with respect to a condition. my requirement is if the user turned off the notification button on my app , then no more notifications is shown.If he turned it on then all notifications should be shown. Any idea?
You can get all scheduled notifications and save them in shared preferences for example.
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduledLocalNotifications];
Then cancel all notifications:
- (void)cancelLocalNotification:(UILocalNotification *)notification
If user activate notifications again, you can reschedule them again.
You can use "cancelAllLocalNotifications" method and When User turn it On you can set again All notification for it.

Reducing badge number with Push notifications

Hi in my application when i receive push notification from server my application badge get incremented by one.and when i open app and close it did not get reduce.so my question is how to reduce badge icon on application icon when user see the notification
You can set it to any value you like. Setting it to 0 removes the badge.
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] setApplicationIconBadgeNumber:0];
I had this same issue, so I thought, "Why not just GET the badge number?" Then, you can do whatever you wish with it.
If you are in your AppDelegate.m file, you could use this in your application: didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: method:
int badgeNumber = [application applicationIconBadgeNumber] -1;
[application setApplicationIconBadgeNumber:badgeNumber];
This will reduce the icon badge number by one. However, be mindful that your user may have multiple notifications from your application that are still not yet viewed. Thus, you should probably set this inside of a particular method that will handle the pushes. Or, depending how your app is set up, just set the badge icon number to 0.
Hope this helps.

How to disable UILocalNotification in iPhone for some time?

I have implemented one reminder iphone applicaion in which I have used local notification for reminder.
In this application their one functionality alert on/off.
So when user set on then user get notification and if its off then user can get notification.
I have done googling but not got sucess.
Can you give me idea for that is it possible or not.
Thanks in advance
Do you have other notifications in your appln.
If you don't have other notification in your app than,
Do one thing,
When you set OFF
- cancel all the notification
- calculate the time difference of current time & your notification firing time. set this in to some variable.
when you set it ON
- reschedule your Notification based on the time which you have saved earlier.
I am considering that you know how UISwitch works, according to switch position
UILocalNotification *localNotif;
//if switch is on
localNotif = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
//else if localNotif is not equal to null then
localNotif = nil;
You can start a timer which continuously check switch position and do the above stuff that depends on your coding.
