I'm working on an app where I need to send a good amount of notifications to the user daily. Around 5-40 depending on the user.
I'm using local notifications to send it, but I know there is a 64 notification limit. Does this mean 64 notifications per day, or in total?

As you are already aware, you can schedule maximum of 64 notifications per app. If you add more than that, the system will keep the soonest firing 64 notifications and will discard the other.
As for the Android push notification character limit: Title: 65 characters. Message: 240 characters.
Use local notifications to get the user's attention. You can display an alert, play a sound, or badge your app's icon. For example, a background app could ask the system to display an alert when your app finishes a particular task. Always use local notifications to convey important information that the user wants.
The essential difference between local notifications and push notifications is simple: Local notifications are scheduled by an app locally and are delivered by the same device. Push notifications are sent by a remote server (its provider) which sends these notifications to devices on which the app is installed.
It means simultaneously scheduled for future delivery. You can send as many as you want per day, provided they don't overlap.
If you add more than 64 requests (under UserNotifications) or scheduled (under UIApplication/UILocalNotification), the older ones will be dropped and not delivered.

Unfortunately iOS limits the local schedule notification up to 64. May be to prevent this issue can schedule first group of notification initially and then schedule another group when launch the app next time.
