Is there a way to send a notification to the user that app has been downloaded but a certain task from the app is not yet complete even after certain period – say a month. One way is a background service which should come alive every month in this case, check the app state (in sharedprefs) and then send a notification. Is there some other easier way in Android without writing custom service.
In order to wake up your app after some amount of time (in your example a month) you’re going to have to set an alarm. You can use
AlarmManagerfor that. If all you’re going to do is check SharedPreferences, you can do that in a broadcast receiver. You can send your notification there.
