ios - Sending local notifications after the app has been terminated

Question

I am making an app in iOS where it will send local notifications on a timer. It works fine when the app is in background state, but does not work when it has been terminated and closed completely.

Is there anyway to still send local notifications when this has happened?

Thanks in advance.

Sure it is possible, if you schedule a local notification it will fire even if you terminate the app.

        UILocalNotification *_localNotification = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
        _localNotification.fireDate = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSinceNow:_value];
        _localNotification.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
        _localNotification.alertBody = @"Beep... Beep... Beep...";
        _localNotification.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
        [[UIApplication sharedApplication]scheduleLocalNotification:_localNotification];

... works like a charm for me.
