My problem is that I am trying to schedule notifications that come daily at a specific time this is my code

import SwiftUI

struct notifView: View {
    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            VStack {
                Button("Request Permission") {
                    let center = UNUserNotificationCenter.current()

                    center.requestAuthorization(options: [.alert, .badge, .sound]) { (granted, error) in
                        if granted {
                            print("Access Granted!")
                        } else {
                            print("Access Not Granted")
                        }
                    }
                }
                .frame(width: 200, height: 60, alignment: .center)

I got it working with the help of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mG9BVAs8AIo

and some code from @lorem ipsum thank you so much for the help

Add one day in today's date so we got next day and then add your specific time on which you want trigger the notification.

var triggerComponents = DateComponents()

let nextDay = Calendar.current.date(byAdding: .day, value: 1, to: Date()) ?? Date()
triggerComponents = Calendar.current.dateComponents([.year, .month, .day, .hour], from: nextDay)
triggerComponents.hour = 14
