How to perform some action when app is closed by sending push notification in iPhone

I don't know whether i have to ask this question here or not, but i am really confused how to perform such thing.

I have to send sms via iphone, as i will receive push notification.

If my App is in foreground or in background i know how to do this, but if app is closed ie. not active then how i can perform such thing.

I don't want to prompt any message or alert.I just want to make it simple, As i send any message via push notification, my app receive it and perform the needful.

i can seen the api UIApplicationStateInactive. Is this api detect when app is closed, as after closing app i can't debug i don't know how it works.

If it is possible, please guide me how to do this.

Thanks.

As Sandeep Sharma as suggested , you can use WebService to do as you wish.

Otherwise there is no any way to like that , because user must interact with your app to that thing.

You can launch your app as notification has arrived and can send the SMS after app has opened.

It is not possible AFAIK.

User need to interact with your app for performing some tasks when a notification is arrived. Else you can't do anything in a closed app.

your app will not active application: didReceiveRemoteNotification: is not working,when the app will launch from application: didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: that time we manually check notification like this

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
 UILocalNotification *localNotif =[launchOptions objectForKey: UIApplicationLaunchOptionsRemoteNotificationKey];
    if (localNotif) {

         }
}
