You’ve asked a really general question, so the best I can do is give you a general answer. You’re going to want to use a Service to run stuff in the background. In order to have something occur at a specific time, use the AlarmManager to fire off a broadcast. Then make you’re own BroadcastReceiver that receives the broadcast and adds a notification via the NotificationManager.
