how can I use repeatinterval every 10 minutes ??

Question

Is there anyway to set local notification repeatinterval every 10 min.

I try to use

localnotification.repeatInterval = NSMinuteCalendarUnit*3;

and

localNotif.repeatInterval = 640;

and it don't work.

So could you guide me please. : )

Answer 1

as Mundi said the repeatInterval has to be NSCalendarUnit and can only contain: NSWeekCalendarUnit , NSMonthCalendarUnit , NSDayCalendarUnit , NSHourCalendarUnit ,..

So the get an notification every 10 min. Use 6 notification that repeat ever hour and set 10 minutes between the notifications.

Answer 2

I think you cannot do so.

I had asked similar question previously if you would like to refer to that question.

Here is the link

Hope this helps you.

Answer 3

The NSTimeInterval is in seconds, so ten minutes would be 600.0 , not 640 .

NSMinutesCalenderUnit has an arbitrarily defined value and does NOT contain the number of seconds per minute.

Did you check that you schedule the Notification properly with scheduleLocalNotification: and that you implemented application:didReceiveLocalNotification: in your AppDelegate?

Answer 4

Wouldn'T you have to shedule your notification aswell? Like so

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:localNotification];
