Schedule Tasks to execute methods in iOS

Question

I would like to schedule tasks in iOS to execute a method depending on the time of the day and the day. For example, I want to execute startMonitorRegion every day at 10pm and stopMonitorRegion at 10am. I don't want to send a local notification to alert the user, it needs to be transparent for the user.

Is anyway to do it using NSTimer? The app will be in background.

Even if the app will be in background, it can execute tasks during only 10 mins. So, I think, there is no solution other that to use notifications. — Denis Kutlubaev, Nov 23 '12 at 10:51

You can utilize Local notifications for this purpose.

Just schedule local notification for some date/time. and once user open your app you can perform the required task..
