I have seen a lot of tutorials online on how to set a notification on a timer, say every 20 seconds. But I would like a notification to appear on a specific date lets say July 9th, 2017 at 9 pm only once. Anyone have any ideas?

Hi @zalubski

There are plenty examples of this on the stackoverflow. Basically you need to use the “fire date” property.  
Here is a related answer: [swift - Launch a local notification at a specific time in iOS - Stack Overflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43405959/launch-a-local-notification-at-a-specific-time-in-ios)
