Which approach is better? notification or call intent from
AlarmManger?
In my humble opinion, a notification is usually better (incoming phone
calls are an obvious exception) - if you are worried, perhaps you should
make it an option?
A random application may cause significant strain on the system if run
regularly (just watch the difference in battery consumption if you turn
of the mail sync - and the guys writing that one certainly know the
platform very well). I'd make sure the Alarms won't go off when the
phone is sleeping and just make them notifications (probably cancelling
unused previous ones in the process).
Perhaps you should reconsider the use case of your application? What's
the problem your are trying so solve?
Good luck / Jonas
