Android AlarmManager Push notifications
alarmmanager, android, push-notification
Solution
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
// 8.00 (8 AM)
calendar.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 8);
calendar.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 0);
calendar.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
PendingIntent pi = PendingIntent.getService(context, 0 , new Intent(context, Your_Class.class),PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
AlarmManager am = (AlarmManager) context.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
am.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, calendar.getTimeInMillis(),
AlarmManager.INTERVAL_DAY, pi);
This sets an alarm everyday at 8.00 AM
Or you can use https://github.com/commonsguy/cwac-wakeful. Take a look at the documentation on the link.
Take a look at this: Fire notification at every 24 hours and at exact time of 8 AM

Problem
I am using this notifications code: ``` package com.example.mega; import android.app.Notification; import android.app.NotificationManager; import android.app.PendingIntent; import android.content.BroadcastReceiver; import android.content.Context; import android.content.Intent; public class TimeAlarm extends BroadcastReceiver { NotificationManager nm; @Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { nm = (NotificationManager) context .getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE); CharSequence from = "Tech"; CharSequence message = "Check out our NEW COLLECTION !!"; PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, new Intent(), 0); Notification notif = new Notification(R.drawable.icon, "Check out our NEW COLLECTION !!" , System.currentTimeMillis()); notif.setLatestEventInfo(context, from, message, contentIntent); nm.notify(1, notif); } } ``` As you see I haven't yet added AlarmManager since I have no experience using it ,I am new to android.What should I add to the code to have show the notification every 24 hours ??
