You should achieve it using a service with AlarmManger for that. First when user install your application then you should start Service then service start AlarmManager content a pendingIndent this pending intent fire on you specific time mention you in AlarmManager

By use of AlarmManager you can declare the time. And use of BroadcastReceiver you can start the application at the time of reached. I suggest you to try Commonsware example application. There you should modify the code by yourself with your needs.

Hope this helps you lot.
