can the local notification be scheduled when app is not running ?
I dont mean receiving when app is closed ! i mean shcheduling and receiving the same notification immediately !
I got it working but it can schedule only if the app is minimized or running !
Thanks ! help is appreciated
You might want to checkout the plugin docs,
Thanks for the response ! 
I checked it ! but its not answering how will i schedule it when app is not running !
To schedule or not to schedule is the decision made based on user location !
from the docs , i understand how to schedule for future but afterall its a cordova plugin which requires device to be ready to work for which app should be running.
on success callback (for getting user location) i can only make http calls ! it also schedules notification but only if app is minimized or running !
Only alternative i could think of is push service where i can trigger a notification with http call to rest api !
I tried ionic push service …which worked great but its only free during aplha stage ? i fear my client would pay later on for a current free service 
any idea about the pricing ? so client can be convinced 
Thanks again for reply sir !
