Question

i want to show local notification on every saturday like this,

NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
        dateFormatter.dateFormat=@"EEEE";
        NSString *dayString = [[dateFormatter stringFromDate:[NSDate date]] capitalizedString];
        NSLog(@"day: %@", dayString);

            NSLog(@"Success");
            [self PushNotification];
        }
-(void)PushNotification

        UILocalNotification* localNotification = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
        localNotification.alertTitle = @"Test";
        localNotification.alertBody =@"test of notification";


        NSCalendar *calendar = [[NSCalendar alloc] initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSCalendarIdentifierGregorian];
        NSDateComponents *componentsForFireDate = [calendar components:(NSCalendarUnitYear | NSCalendarUnitWeekOfMonth |  NSCalendarUnitHour | NSCalendarUnitMinute| NSCalendarUnitSecond | NSCalendarUnitWeekday) fromDate: [NSDate date]];
        [componentsForFireDate setWeekday: 7]; //for fixing Saturday
        [componentsForFireDate setHour: 17]; //for fixing 5PM hour
        [componentsForFireDate setMinute:0];

        localNotification.repeatInterval = NSCalendarUnitWeekOfMonth; 
    }

Try to declare fireData property in localNotification and schedule your notification

localNotification.fireDate = componentsForFireDate.date;
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:localNotification];

Hope this help
