No way to pass custom time to periodicallyShow()

[centy]

Hi,
I would like to create notification that will run eg. every monday on 14pm. Currently I do not see how to do that.

Why periodicallyShow() does not have that feature?

yeah this one is confusing to me. right now it looks like you can:

• schedule for a point in time in the future (zonedSchedule)
• schedule for an interval starting now (periodicallyShowWithDuration / periodicallyShow)

you cannot:

• schedule for an interval starting in the future

use case: "remind me to do my workout every day at 6am"

this is one of the most common revenue driving use cases for local notifications for b2c apps

@centy this might be helpful, see the tweet linked within https://gist.github.com/lukepighetti/a7c44cb921b62876d4be18394246695e

I just figured out that we can use the zonedSchedule method with matchDateTimeComponents: DateTimeComponents.time to create daily, weekly, or even monthly notifications.

They already mention it in the documentation and the example code.
