Question

Thank you very much, Amir Foghel

To get the time from datepicker use ,

NSDateFormatter *outputFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[outputFormatter setDateFormat:@"HH:mm"]; //24hr time format
NSString *dateString = [outputFormatter stringFromDate:self.myDatePicker.date];
[outputFormatter release];

To do a functionality at particular time daily use UILocalNotification.

Set the repeatInterval as NSDayCalendarUnit.

And in the delegate to handling the UILocalNotification code your method.

NOTE: This method will be execute only when the user accepts the Local notification.
