Description
I have gone to use this plugin for the first time today, when I saw the schedule method I thought that only scheduled notifications can be made and when I have not even seen a .showNotification or something similar I have come to think that the plugin was to manage scheduled tasks. It doesn't seem intuitive to me. Wouldn't it be better to just leave the sceduled for true scheduled and a method that is more descriptive that is to display a notification? I would like to help but I don't see how to contribute to the repo.
