I want to invoke a method daily at a specific time in my iPhone application.
How can I achieve this?
There’s not a whole lot you can do with the iPhone SDK and a closed app. You can have it send local push notifications at specific times, but that won’t execute your code until the user manually opens your app.
See this related question recently asked: Is it possible to have my closed app run code in iOS?
One thing I’ve seen apps do (like alarm clock apps, etc) is have you leave your app open and just let the phone fall asleep and then it will still execute code when you want it to. But that only works as long as the user doesn’t hit the home button.
