                id: self.sugar.Notifcount,
                text: ‘Rental Object : ’ + rental[1] + ' is now ' + value.rental_object_status,
                every: ‘day’,

1. You are using the old version of the plugin that doesn't work well on IOS10. Use the 8.5.dev branch

2. Change your schedule so the object is an array of objects even if you only have one object.

3. Update template so you have the correct markdown, its wrongly formatted which makes it difficult to read.

4. No idea what the LED will do as don't think IOS supports it.

It does work in IOS 10 as we use it.

@rwillett

How do i update my plugin ?

[rwillett]

cordova plugin add https://github.com/katzer/cordova-plugin-local-notifications#ios10

[sonitgregorio]

@rwillett I updated my plugin but still no luck to solve the issue

can i ask for a sample code for the local notification schedule ?

here is my code for notification

 LocalNotifications.registerPermission().then(function (register) {
             console.log(register) //result here is true
             LocalNotifications.hasPermission().then(function (permission) {
             console.log(permission) //result here is true
                    LocalNotifications.schedule({
                         id: self.sugar.Notifcount,
                         text: ‘Rental Object : ’ + rental[1] + ' is now ' + value.rental_object_status,
                         every: ‘day’,
                          data: value.abtz_rental_objects_id_c

                      });

              });
    }); ```

You have no at: object. You need to create a date to start it off.

every: may also be flaky on IOS10

    function SendDummyNotification() {
        var debugSendDummyNotification = debugFalse;
        var whatAmI = WhatAmI("SetupCongestionNotificationReminders");
    var d          = new Date();
        var now        = d.getTime();
        var year       = d.getFullYear();
    var month      = d.getMonth();
    var day        = d.getDate();
    var reminder0  = new Date(now + 10 * 1000);

        var notifications = [ { id: GetNotificationIdAndIncrement() ,
                                sound: "" , // Turn the sound off
                at: reminder0 ,
                                data: { type: "CongestionChargeNotification" , original_schedule_time: reminder0.getTime()/1000 ,
                                        reminder_type: "reminder0_congestion_charge" , order: 1} ,
                                text: "[A102] Blackwall Tunnel Southern Approach (N/B) - The carriageway is blocked northbound. Collision between two\
 cars. Carriageway blocked. Police on scene are removing vehicles. Expect long delays."
                              }];

        if (whatAmI === "android_app" || whatAmI === "android_simulator")
        {
            for (var i = 0 ; i < notifications.length ; i++)
            {
                notifications[i]["icon"] = "file://pw_notification.png";
            }
    }

        if (debugSendDummyNotification)
            ConsoleLog("SendDummyNotification: " + JSON.stringify(notifications));

    cordova.plugins.notification.local.schedule(notifications , function () {
            if (debugSendDummyNotification)
        ConsoleLog("SendDummyNotification: schedule callback OK");
    });

    }

Read the docs and the issues.

@rwillett Thank you sir. it fix my issue for this but the notification is not showing when the app is running background. Notification only show when the app is open.

Regards, Greg

[rwillett]

There's something else wrong with your code then. It does work in the background with the app paused or even stopped.

[sonitgregorio]

@rwillett okay i will check this. But why is that my code is running well in simulator ? any idea sir ?

[rwillett]

No idea. You have not provided enough information.

[sonitgregorio]

@rwillett thank you sir for your help. I will try to fix the issue. thanks a lot.

[inferno1005]

@rwillett I am experiencing the same issue with notifications not firing until the app is opened. I am using the ios10 branch with a simulator.

I am creating the notification like so

window.cordova.plugins.notification.local.schedule({
   text:"test"
})

I walked through the javascript code in safari and it gets all the way to

this.exec('schedule',notifications,callback,scope)

(line number here)

At this point the app is running in the background and there no native code is called. My javascript code is being called from a geofence if you were wondering how it was being run in the background.

Once I manually open the app schedule suddenly runs and creates the notification as expected.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Raise a new issue using #1188 . You've not provided enough information and you have a different problem. Do not hijack other peoples threads.

@sonitgregorio

What version of the plugin are you really using? You have promises which are not standard in this plugin. Only just noticed the calling routine. Is this the Ionic version of the plugin?

[sonitgregorio]

@rwillett it is now solve sir. thank you for your help :+1:

[rwillett]

So what was the solution?

Please update so other people can learn what the problem is.

[sonitgregorio]

@rwillett i will post my solution after my duty in the office. :) :+1:

[sonitgregorio]

setInterval(function () {
            console.log(self.sugar.Notifcount);
            self.sugar.checkNotif().subscribe(response => {
                _.forEach(response.data, function (value, key) {
                    if (self.sugar.Notifcount > Number(key)) {
                        self.sugar.Notifcount = self.sugar.Notifcount + 1;
                    } else {
                        self.sugar.Notifcount = Number(key) + 1;
                    }
                    var str = value.name;
                    rental = str.split(":")
                    var data = {
                        notification_status: 1
                    }
                    self.sugar.updateRecord('abtz_Notification', value.id, data).subscribe(data => {
                        LocalNotifications.schedule({
                            id: self.sugar.Notifcount,
                            text: 'Rental Object : ' + rental[1] + ' is now ' + value.rental_object_status,
                            sound: null,
                            data: value.abtz_rental_objects_id_c
                        })
                    })
                })
            }, err => {
                console.log(err)
            });
        }, 10000)

This how i use the local notification

[rozumny]
