Why the alarm does not work?

I’m trying to display some notifications in a certain moment of the day in my application with Kotlin…I found a example on Github and make my code based in it. This code make the alarm:

lateinit var preferences: SharedPreferences

@SuppressLint("ServiceCast")
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
    preferences = getSharedPreferences("tk.thallyssonklein.kapp.notifications", MODE_PRIVATE)
    for(mov in preferences.all){
        val alarmManager = getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE) as AlarmManager
        alarmManager.set(
                AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP,
                Calendar.getInstance().apply {
                    set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 17)
                    set(Calendar.MINUTE, 17)
                    set(Calendar.SECOND, 0)
                }.timeInMillis,
                PendingIntent.getBroadcast(
                        applicationContext,
                        0,
                        Intent(applicationContext, AlarmBroadcastReceiver::class.java).apply {
                            putExtra("notificationId", "tk.thallyssonklein.kapp.notifications")
                            putExtra("ticker", "A morning exercise")
                            putExtra("title", mov.key)
                            putExtra("text", "Do this exercise now!")
                        },
                        PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT
                )
        )
    }
    getDataFromServer()
}

I already got test if this loop is working perfectly, and it’s working, it’s run two times and make two alarms. I put to run on 17:17 and waited for this time, and nothing went show.

The AlarmBroadcastReceiver class:

package tk.thallyssonklein.kapp

/**
 * Created by thall on 14/01/2018.
 */
import android.app.Notification
import android.app.NotificationManager
import android.app.PendingIntent
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver
import android.content.Context
import android.content.Intent

class AlarmBroadcastReceiver : BroadcastReceiver() {
    override fun onReceive(context: Context?, intent: Intent?) {
        (context?.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE) as NotificationManager).notify(
                intent!!.getIntExtra("notificationId", 0),
                Notification.Builder(context).apply {
                    setSmallIcon(tk.thallyssonklein.kapp.R.drawable.ic_stretching_exercises)
                    setContentTitle(intent.getStringExtra("title"))
                    setContentText(intent.getCharSequenceExtra("text"))
                    setWhen(System.currentTimeMillis())
                    setTicker(intent.getCharSequenceExtra("ticker"))
                    setPriority(Notification.PRIORITY_DEFAULT)
                    setAutoCancel(true)
                    setDefaults(Notification.DEFAULT_SOUND)
                    setContentIntent(PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, Intent(context, MainActivity::class.java), 0))
                }.build()
        )
    }
}

Obs: The app does not show any exception in log.

Someone know what’s happening here?

I got can resolve. First, the notification does not got appear because was missing add the receiver in the AndroidManifest.xml like the example. Second, a new problem gets appear. Only one notification was being show, it’s because the id of the alarms were the same. The correct code is:

lateinit var preferences: SharedPreferences

    @SuppressLint("ServiceCast")
    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
        preferences = getSharedPreferences("tk.thallyssonklein.kapp.notifications", MODE_PRIVATE)
        val alarmManager = getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE) as AlarmManager
        var id: Int = 0
        for(mov in preferences.all){
            alarmManager.set(
                    AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP,
                    Calendar.getInstance().apply {
                        set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 22)
                        set(Calendar.MINUTE, 14)
                        set(Calendar.SECOND, 0)
                    }.timeInMillis,
                    PendingIntent.getBroadcast(
                            applicationContext,
                            id,
                            Intent(applicationContext, AlarmBroadcastReceiver::class.java).apply {
                                putExtra("notificationId", id)
                                putExtra("ticker", "A morning exercise")
                                putExtra("title", mov.key)
                                putExtra("text", "Do this exercise now!")
                            },
                            PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT
                    )
            )
            ++id
        }
        getDataFromServer()
    }
