iOS Phase 1 - Ready for Testing

Status: ✅ IMPLEMENTATION COMPLETE - READY FOR TESTING
Date: 2025-01-XX
Branch: ios-2

---

🎯 What's Been Completed

Core Infrastructure ✅

All Phase 1 infrastructure components have been implemented:

1. Storage Layer (DailyNotificationStorage.swift)

   • UserDefaults + CoreData integration
   • Content caching with automatic cleanup
   • BGTask tracking for miss detection

2. Scheduler (DailyNotificationScheduler.swift)

   • UNUserNotificationCenter integration
   • Permission auto-healing
   • Calendar-based triggers with ±180s tolerance

3. Thread Safety (DailyNotificationStateActor.swift)

   • Actor-based concurrency
   • Serialized state access
   • Fallback for iOS < 13

4. Error Handling (DailyNotificationErrorCodes.swift)

   • Structured error codes matching Android
   • Helper methods for error responses

Phase 1 Methods ✅

All 6 Phase 1 core methods implemented:

• ✅ configure() - Full Android parity
• ✅ scheduleDailyNotification() - Main scheduling with prefetch
• ✅ getLastNotification() - Last notification retrieval
• ✅ cancelAllNotifications() - Cancel all notifications
• ✅ getNotificationStatus() - Status retrieval
• ✅ updateSettings() - Settings update

Background Tasks ✅

• ✅ BGTaskScheduler registration
• ✅ Background fetch handler
• ✅ BGTask miss detection (15-minute window)
• ✅ Auto-rescheduling on miss

🧪 How to Test

Quick Start

1. Open Testing Guide:

   # View comprehensive testing guide
   cat doc/IOS_PHASE1_TESTING_GUIDE.md
   

2. Run Test Cases:

   • Follow test cases 1-10 in the testing guide
   • Use JavaScript test code provided
   • Check Console.app for logs

3. Debug Issues:

   • Use Xcode debugger commands from guide
   • Check log prefixes: DNP-PLUGIN:, DNP-FETCH:, etc.
   • Review "Common Issues & Solutions" section

Test App Setup

Note: iOS test app (test-apps/ios-test-app/) needs to be created. See directive for requirements.

Quick Build (when test app exists):

./scripts/build-ios-test-app.sh --simulator
cd test-apps/ios-test-app
open App.xcworkspace

📋 Testing Checklist

Core Methods

• configure() works correctly
• scheduleDailyNotification() schedules notification
• Prefetch scheduled 5 minutes before notification
• getLastNotification() returns correct data
• cancelAllNotifications() cancels all
• getNotificationStatus() returns accurate status
• updateSettings() updates settings

Background Tasks

• BGTask scheduled correctly
• BGTask executes successfully
• BGTask miss detection works
• BGTask rescheduling works

Error Handling

• Error codes match Android format
• Missing parameter errors work
• Invalid time format errors work
• Permission denied errors work

Thread Safety

• No race conditions
• State actor used correctly
• Background tasks use state actor

🔍 Key Testing Points

1. Notification Scheduling

Test: Schedule notification 5 minutes from now

Verify:

• Notification scheduled successfully
• Prefetch BGTask scheduled 5 minutes before
• Notification appears at scheduled time (±180s tolerance)

Logs to Check:

DNP-PLUGIN: Daily notification scheduled successfully
DNP-FETCH-SCHEDULE: Background fetch scheduled for [date]
DailyNotificationScheduler: Notification scheduled successfully

2. BGTask Miss Detection

Test: Schedule notification, wait 15+ minutes, launch app

Verify:

• Miss detection triggers on app launch
• BGTask rescheduled for 1 minute from now
• Logs show miss detection

Logs to Check:

DNP-FETCH: BGTask missed window; rescheduling
DNP-FETCH: BGTask rescheduled for [date]

3. Permission Auto-Healing

Test: Deny permissions, then schedule notification

Verify:

• Permission request dialog appears
• Scheduling succeeds after granting
• Error returned if denied

Logs to Check:

DailyNotificationScheduler: Permission request result: true
DailyNotificationScheduler: Scheduling notification: [id]

🐛 Common Issues

BGTask Not Running

Solution: Use simulator-only LLDB command:

e -l objc -- (void)[[BGTaskScheduler sharedScheduler] _simulateLaunchForTaskWithIdentifier:@"com.timesafari.dailynotification.fetch"]

Notifications Not Delivering

Check:

1. Permissions granted
2. Notification scheduled: getPendingNotificationRequests()
3. Time hasn't passed (iOS may deliver immediately)

Build Failures

Solutions:

1. Run pod install in ios/ directory
2. Clean build folder (Cmd+Shift+K)
3. Verify Capacitor plugin path
