Question

I am using AlarmManager() to fire notification and repeat it at every 24 hours.

My code is on onCreate() in Splash Activity which fires fi

Answer 1

Do as chintan suggested. To get a clear picture, the exact solution might look something similar to the below:

Intent myIntent = new Intent(Splash.this, AlarmReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(Splash.this, 0, myIntent, 0);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);

Calendar firingCal= Calendar.getInstance();
Calendar currentCal = Calendar.getInstance();

firingCal.set(Calendar.HOUR, 8); // At the hour you wanna fire
firingCal.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 0); // Particular minute
firingCal.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0); // particular second

long intendedTime = firingCal.getTimeInMillis();
long currentTime = currentCal.getTimeInMillis();

if(intendedTime >= currentTime){ 
   // you can add buffer time too here to ignore some small differences in milliseconds
   // set from today
   alarmManager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC, intendedTime, AlarmManager.INTERVAL_DAY, pendingIntent);
} else{
   // set from next day
   // you might consider using calendar.add() for adding one day to the current day
   firingCal.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, 1);
   intendedTime = firingCal.getTimeInMillis();

   alarmManager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC, intendedTime, AlarmManager.INTERVAL_DAY, pendingIntent);
}
