setDelay

open fun setDelay(delay: Int): LocalNotification.Builder

Sets the delay after which the notification will be displayed.

Important: Delay is specified in seconds, not milliseconds. The notification will be scheduled using Android's android.app.AlarmManager and will be displayed after the specified delay from the moment scheduleLocalNotification is called. Example:


		  // Schedule notification for 5 minutes from now
		  LocalNotification fiveMinutes = new LocalNotification.Builder()
		      .setMessage("5 minute reminder")
		      .setDelay(300) // 5 minutes = 300 seconds
		      .build();
		
		  // Schedule notification for 1 hour from now
		  LocalNotification oneHour = new LocalNotification.Builder()
		      .setMessage("1 hour reminder")
		      .setDelay(3600) // 1 hour = 3600 seconds
		      .build();
		
		  // Schedule notification for 24 hours from now
		  LocalNotification oneDay = new LocalNotification.Builder()
		      .setMessage("Daily reminder")
		      .setDelay(86400) // 24 hours = 86400 seconds
		      .build();
		
		  // Immediate notification (show in 1 second)
		  LocalNotification immediate = new LocalNotification.Builder()
		      .setMessage("Immediate notification")
		      .setDelay(1) // Minimum practical delay
		      .build();

Note: On Android 6.0+ (API 23+), battery optimization may delay exact timing. For time-critical notifications, consider using WorkManager or AlarmManager's exact alarm APIs.
