For timers, can't apps schedule local notifications (on-device push notifications that don't go OTA) to have themselves prodded to life on a fixed schedule?

Yeah, I'm not even sure many apps even got through with doing it, I just remember reading about some apps trying it.
Would the local notification happen seamlessly though? Or would it pop up a dialog requiring you to hit ok?
I want it to be completely seamless in the background. Which they many not like because that's a potential battery drain issue once again (an app that does this every 10 seconds), but they could limit it to a minimum 15 minutes or something.
