I know this question has asked many times on StackOverflow but i couldn\'t able to set alarm in my app because i am very new to iOS? I am following this tutorial to

Answer 1

1. First on your xib, (or code) set the date picker mode: Time (Default is date & time)

2. The system assumes that the firedate is the current date, and the time is the time the user have chosen. This is not a problem because you set a repeat interval so it will work. I have tested it.

   UILocalNotification *localNotif = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
   [localNotif setFireDate:datePicker.date];
   [localNotif setRepeatInterval:NSDayCalendarUnit];
   [[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:localNotif];
   

PS: It would be a good idea to set the seconds to 0 using NSDateComponents class so as to set the alarm to ring at the first second of the minute you want. You can check the:
