Calendar programs that send notifications, chat applications where you want instant notifications, email clients, package delivery ones where you'd be notified about deliveries, mental wellbeing apps that remind you to do things or to complete a journal entry or log, etc.

But all of them are examples of apps needing to run in the background specifically to send notifications...

What apps need to run in the background for other reasons than to send notifications?
