My app wakes up from suspended mode on silent remote notification from a server, exactly as I want. This server sends a push notification with "content-available:1", which does the job.
Now I want to do this without the help of a server and so I want to send silent local notifications (from the app) at a time in the future (like after 15 min.), but can't find a way to set "content-available:1". So I end up getting local notification that doesn't wake up my app, as I can with remote notification.
I've searched for information and all I can find are examples of interactive notifications and how to set title, body, alert and triggers (based on location, date and so on.). But nothing about how to set content-available property.
So, is possible to set content-available for local notifications?
It's just not possible without user intervention. There is no Android's AlarmManager kind of solution to wake up the app from suspended mode in iOS. In iOS there's no way to periodically wake up app from suspended mode, except from remote push notification (if an extern application sends a push notification periodically).
