Can this code get message in background and show it on the label.

Unfortunately, I dont not know the extension you are using.
The next step you have to do is to create a procedure which the numbers of arguments the "GotCell" has.

Here is the example of the Timer event in clock.

Please post your blocks, what have you tried so far?

Actually I was trying to get message and store it in a variable and when the app will open then the message will be shown on the label
But it didn't worked!
