why doesn't the notification work? I used two options, neither fire worked. how to specify the time correctly to work the notification? permissions are all granted. extension version 10. isha is time from api ,"isha":"18:44"
You have to create an instant of date and time, for example for today 2024-10-17 18:44
Protip: debug your blocks
EDIT: Also use the Started event to check, if the alarm has been set correctly and at what time
Use the companion app and Do it to debug your blocks, see also tip 4 here App Inventor: How to Learn | Pura Vida Apps

Read the documentation. and use the correct syntax
MakeInstant(from)
Returns an instant in time specified by MM/dd/YYYY hh:mm:ss or MM/dd/YYYY or hh:mm.
It helps to be familiar with the clock component

I checked on the second phone Samsung 11 Android the notification works. But on Redmi 12 Android 14 your extension does not work at all
We already talked about that in the past... it looks like you forgot about it again
What about reading again starting from here [PAID] ⏰ Alarm Manager Extension with Notification or Autostart - #79 by Emissary95 to refresh your memory?
Some device manufacturers make it a bit more complicated, see again https://dontkillmyapp.com
Usually to disable battery optimization helps
I also created an extension for that App Inventor Extensions: Ignore Battery Optimization | Pura Vida Apps
Also let me recommend again to try the example projects to see how to use the extension before starting your own project
EDIT: and especially for Redmi
App Settings → Battery Optimisations → Do not optimise battery
You may also do this
App Settings → AutoStart → Enable Auto Start

it was at the beginning of the year, then i made notifications work on Samsung, on Redmi and then they didn't work. now the extension version is 10, so i checked if it works or not. all permissions are granted (notifications, battery optimization with your BatteryOptimization extension, autostart), when you click GetAllAlarms, the data in json format is received, but there is no notification. but on Samsung it works fine
As you can see yourself, you have a device specific problem.
The alarmmanager extension offers a lot of options. My recommendation is to start as simple as possible and use the SimpleNotification project as a start. Please see the documentation. Use the apk file simple apk from the download folder. This example requires only PostNotification permission.
Get that example running on your Redmi first before continuing and try these device specific adjustments manually in the settings

it all turned out to be in vain. we can't register 5 signals at different times (for example 12:00, 13:00, 14:00, 15:00, 16:00) if the current time on the clock is later than the specified one. this makes the extension useless for me unfortunately..
we can use this block, but I can't divide the time because I get the whole time from the api (fajr":"04:59","zuhr":"12:30","magrib":"17:13","isha":"18:43","), for example 12:00, and for the elshl block the hours and minutes are separate
Well, obviously it only makes sense to set alarms in the future... you could have some logic to do that...
Generally your method of working is very erratically... what about working step by step in a structured way? Don't confuse yourself. And keep it simple.
For your prayer app every day the prayer times are changing. What about writing a procedure, which gives you only the next prayer time? Then set the alarm to that time. And after an alarm gets triggered, get the next prayer time, etc. This process will work as long as there is internet access available.

what is the answer result of this block? true? does it trigger when a notification appears?
If you have doubts, the first thing you should do is to check the documentation at App Inventor Extensions: Alarm Manager | Pura Vida Apps
Everyone else who bought the extension is able to do it... give it a try yourself next time..
And now let's read the documentation together
Btw. Recently I mentioned twice how to use the Started event, now I repeat it the third time
See again my simple example...
This is how a result in event Started can look like

after a day of testing on two phones, Samsung (Android 11) and Redmi 12 (Android 14) notifications come only on Samsung (the same application is installed on both phones) on Redmi all permissions are provided (battery optimization is disabled, autostart is enabled, all notifications are enabled, display on top of windows) but the message does not come no matter what I do. pity.. most likely the extension needs to be improved for. but in principle on low Androids everything works well.
I don't know what they tested it on (Tested successfully on several devices starting from Android 5 up to Android 14. Thank you @Anke and @Peter for your tests). but it doesn't start on Android 14
if there was a mistake on my part, the application would not work on Android 11
We already talked about it, read again this
First get the simple project running on your device before continuing!
It would be wise to ask for only those permissions you need for your app
And you have to ask for permissions one by one, NOT everything at the sane time as you did it here
See my lockscreen example project how to do it using a clock

Dear Taifun your extension is great, but apparently Android has introduced some restrictions. Android's protection has been updated twice in two months. I've done a lot of testing with both your demo apk and my app. The thing is that notifications come if you set the notification timer for 1, 2, 3 minutes. But if you set the notification timer for 10 minutes or more, the notifications don't come.
It would be wise to ask for only those permissions you need for your app
And you have to ask for permissions one by one, NOT everything at the sane time as you did it here
this was before. now they are enabled in the application settings one by one
Now I set the notification timer again for 1 minute, and the notification came immediately. I set the timer for 5 minutes. The notification did not come.I don't know why this happens
there is also one nuance, sometimes notifications with a timer of 1-5 minutes come not at the specified time but after 20 minutes. but this is rare and only on android 14. and on samsung everything is super
Can you post your Redmi MIUI Software version?
