One is to accept some callbacks (eg. for API calls out to a reporting service and then saving in the DB). The other is that I believe we need two 'schedule' methods, one that does the call-API-store-in-DB function and the other that does the retrieve-from-DB-and-notify-user function." + +### **Core Requirements Identified** +1. **Callback System**: Accept callbacks for external service integration +2. **Dual Scheduling**: Separate content fetch from user notification +3. **API Integration**: Support for external reporting services +4. **Database Operations**: Callback-based storage and retrieval + +--- + +## ๐Ÿ” **CURRENT IMPLEMENTATION ANALYSIS** + +### **Existing Scheduling Method** +```typescript +// Current single method approach +async scheduleDailyNotification(options: NotificationOptions): Promise +``` + +**Current Behavior**: +- Single method handles both content fetching and notification scheduling +- Limited to basic URL fetching without callback support +- No separation of concerns between data operations and user notification +- Basic error handling without external service integration + +### **Current API Call Handling** +```typescript +// Basic URL fetching in Android implementation +String url = call.getString("url", "");
