Question

I have a UILocalNotification set up, and as far as i can see it i have 5 different scenarios:

1. The app is not running, the user chooses to view the notification, so it launches the app.
2. The app is not running, the user chooses to close the notification, then opens the app at a later date.
3. The app is running in the background, the user chooses to view the notification, so it brings the app to the foreground.
4. The app is running in the background, the user chooses to close the notification, then opens the app bringing it to the foreground at a later date.
5. The app is running in the foreground.

How do i deal with these 5 different scenarios?

Answer 1

1. Put your code into application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:. In
   the actions NSDictionary you will find the information about the
   notification.

2. You can again check in application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: if the local
   notification is still active and take appropriate action.

3. Put your code into applicationWillEnterForeground:

4. Again the same spot, just check if there are active local notifications.

5. Here you can check in application:didReceiveLocalNotification: and either notify the user or not.
