Launch Closed iOS App From Local Notification

ios, localnotification, uilocalnotification

Solution

You can't run a method in the app when a local notification is received. The notification can provide any combination of an alert, icon badge number, and a sound (<30 secs).

You can run a method when it comes into the foreground again either through the notification or through other means.

When the app is in the background it will call `applicationWillEnterForeground:` prior to resuming. You can override this method to handle anything needed after the notification. You can override `applicationDidEnterBackground:` to determine when your app actually enters the background.

Method `application:didReceiveLocalNotification:` is called when the app receives a notification but is in the foreground. The alert, icon badge number, and sound will not be triggered when the app is in the foreground.

Problem

When my iOS application is running in the background it responds fine to ``` - (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didReceiveLocalNotification: (UILocalNotification *)notification ``` but when the application is closed it crashes and gives a SIGKILL error. How can I run a method within the app if it is closed when the notification is received?
