Cancel UILocalNotification

Question

I have a problem with my UILocalNotification.

I am scheduling the notification with my method.

- (void) sendNewNoteLocalReminder:(NSDate *)date  a         


        

Answer 1

My solution is to remove all scheduled Notifications on these methods.

-applicationDidFinishLaunchingWithOptions: 
- (void)applicationDidBecomeActive:(UIApplication *)application;
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didReceiveLocalNotification:(UILocalNotification *)notification;

with

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] cancelAllLocalNotifications];

You can still get to the LocalNotification object that activated your app by using.

    UILocalNotification *localNotif = [launchOptions objectForKey: UIApplicationLaunchOptionsLocalNotificationKey];

Then I reschedule new Notifications on

- (void)applicationDidEnterBackground:(UIApplication *)application;

This avoids to have bookkeeping for all the notifications. I send some context information in the userInfo dictionary as well. This then helps to jump to the right place in the app.
