I am developing a reminder app with custom Repeat Intervals for local notifications. What I basically want is the DueDate notification to fire then subsequent notifications fire afterwards.

So Notification1.fireDate = the DueDate.date

Notification2.fireDate = DueDate.date.dateByAdding(1000)

& continue for 10 or so times. Then when the app becomes active again, I want the line of notifications to loop again but start after the last notification, like a Queue.

This is all to create the illusion of custom repeat intervals. This is where I got the idea from, so it can be done https://stackoverflow.com/a/5765870/5601784

If you are not changing the fireDate, then there is no point in deleting the previously set notification and setting it again. However, to delete all the notification that your app has set you can do this.

UIApplication.shared.cancelAllLocalNotifications()

or

let app: UIApplication = UIApplication.shared
for event in app.scheduledLocalNotifications! {
  let notification = event as UILocalNotification
  app.cancelLocalNotification(notification)
}
print(app.scheduledLocalNotifications!.count))//prints -- 0

Then you can set the UILocalNotification with the new information.

  • I edited my question if you could take a look? ThankYou! – Tai Apr 01 '16 at 20:11
  • You should probably save the fire date and time of the last notification using core data. And when the all opens again, continue to set the notification from that date again. – snjmhj Apr 02 '16 at 07:59
