I am trying to build an iPhone app that works like an alarm, I am using UILocalNotification
Problem
- I would like the phone to vibrate for a longer duration. However currently it vibrates only once.
Alternative Approaches
Is it possible to use custom vibration patters ?(http://www.pcworld.com/article/242238/how_to_use_custom_vibrations_in_ios_5.html)
Is it possible to execute a method, when the push notification is fired ? (but the app might not even be running, and yet it needs to work)
Is NSTimer an option ? (but the app might not even be running, and yet it needs to work)
Is there any other alternate ?
