@sajangurung2015 Have you solved this issue?

[sajangurung2015]

@Manikandan85 No, I have not been able to solve it .. I tried to make it happen using cordova background plugins too.. But everything runs in background not the TRIGGER event callback .... Some more researching led me to find out that it uses didRecieveLocalNotification ios delegate which runs in foreground only not in background ... so just want to know if the plugin author have some solution for this...

Hi @sajangurung2015 ,

Thanks for the update. I too hope that there will be a solution for this. I will update here if I can able to fix this.

@Manikandan85 my app strictly requires local notification .. so i am desperately searching for workaround for this ... but if ur app requirement is not as strict as mine , u can use remote push notification which provides you with handlers to perform background fetch upon recieving the remote notifications .... but in order to recieve push notification, it requires the device to be connected to internet ... so far i see no way to do so with local one ..

The trigger event only works when app is running in foreground.
