Make it possible to change Alarm time and change alarm on/off
Closed this issue · 3 comments
It should be possible to set the alarm clock on and off and change the time with webworks.
Usage example is everything that has to alert you after a certain amount of time and is not continuously running in the background. Oh btw. is it possible to make background services with WebWorks?
The native platform does not support background services or changing the system alarm clock.
You could either have a server send a push notification or set a calendar appointment.
When the phone is in night mode a calendar appointment is muted isn't it?
So you should not simple close this issue, you should find a way to support this kind of use cases.
Even if services are opened up to 3rd party developers (i'm not sure if they ever will be) we will not do anything to specifically support them in WebWorks. Using HTML/JS to run a small service in the background is extremely inefficient. Having said that, WebWorks applications can be woven into a solution with native services (if available).
Furthermore, if a third party dev can't change the system alarm clock in native, then it is impossible for us to support that use-case. We are intimately tied to api's available at other layers of the platform.
