Bill, iOS supports local notifications (as supposed to remote notifications) that work even if the app that created them is no longer running. See:
https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/RemoteNotificationsPG/Chapters/WhatAreRemoteNotif.html Basically the app creates a local (device) time-based notification and registers it with iOS using the LC command 'CreateNewMobileNotification'. When the local notification date and time arrives iOS will send the notification back to the app that created it. If the app is not running iOS will issue a notification alert to the user, providing the option to automatically launch the app. In LC the app receives a 'localNotificationReceived' message that includes information about the notification. The app handles this message (and its associated data) to process the notification alert.
