Windows Phone 7 Reminders

Samuel Fernandes170207-Apr-2015
How strict/loose are Microsoft on approving Windows Phone apps submitted to the marketplace? I know there are tonnes of stories of developers having their iphone apps rejected on unreasonable grounds, and I know Google let you publish just about anything to the Android market...how are your experiences with WM platform?

Since the reminder needs a DateTime it's pretty easy. Each application has a max of 50 reminders:

DateTime dateTime = DateTime.Now; //First Friday at 10am for (int i = 0; i < 50; i++) { Reminder reminder = new Reminder("MyReminder") reminder.Content = "Reminder"; reminder.BeginTime = dateTime.AddDays(i * 7); ScheduledActionService.Add(reminder); }

-or this may work-

Reminder reminder = new Reminder("MyReminder") reminder.Content = "Reminder"; reminder.BeginTime = DateTime.Now; //First Friday at 10am reminder.Content = "Reminder"; reminder.ExpirationTime = DateTime.Now.AddDays(52 * 7); reminder.RecurrenceType = RecurrenceInterval.Weekly; 
ScheduledActionService.Add(reminder);

EDIT

This is how you get the next day of week

private DateTime GetNextDay(string dayOfWeek) { for (int i = 0; i < 7; i++) { DateTime currentDateTime = DateTime.Now.AddDays(i); if (dayOfWeek.Equals(currentDateTime.ToString("dddd"))) return currentDateTime; } return DateTime.Now; }
