I need to implement notifications repeatedly based on android. for eg. daily at 8AM, 8PM. I have gone through the AlarmManager and Notification classes but i'm not sure about how to use/configure setRepeating()/setInexactRepeating() methods for my requirement. Can anybody suggest which is the best method to use and what are the parameter need to send for setXXXRepeating() methods.

Use setRepeating with 12 hours interval and first trigger time at 8PM/AM.

long interval = 1000 * 60 * 60 * 12; //12 hours interval
alarmManager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC, absoluteTime, interval, intent);

Where absoluteTime points eaither to 8am or to 8pm (whichever comes next).
