imo they should combine calendar and reminders so u can add a reminder to an event cos its so weird with all the apple integration i can add an event add a note to it, it will appear on my apple watch but then i gotta add a reminder for things i have to get ready before the event in a separate app in a separate way

@AnthonyPerez 5 ай бұрын

Notes and reminders should have the same tag referencing I think. Tag being a phone wide thing would be a good setting

Thank you so much for this video, PHT. I remember my girlfriend getting hype when interactive widgets were launched because of Reminders. Being an Apple ecosystem user for over a decade, I never really gave Reminders a chance and didn't care to. It didn't suit my workflow. I'm extremely tech-savvy/literate, but even with the new iteration of Reminders, I was too lazy and too loyal to Todoist to give it another go. This video is the epitome of the type of content I live for on YT. Not even halfway through the video, I've decided to give Reminders another shot. I appreciate your thorough walkthroughs and can imagine it'd help those who aren't tech-savvy and/or are new to Apple. Immediately subscribed. All the best!

🤯 When you showed how to change the display to "Horizontal View" (4:40) you caught me off guard as I was not expecting to learn anything radically new from this video. Combined with the sections and sub tasks for which up to now I had no use for and within an hour I abandoned "Trello" and converted a project I am working on (game dev) to use Reminders. Using a native app on my Mac, iPhone and iPad is much easier (and free) then using a 3rd party solution. After some quick testing it works really well as a Trello replacement (for my needs)... Thanks for the great video!

Something you missed! You can drag reminders right into the Calendar app. It's a little limited though as it does not "link" the reminder to the event, but rather it just creates a new event. Still helpful for getting a visual of what will be happening through your day. The way I use it: 1. Write out any and all tasks throughout the day. 2. Sort tasks into Important/Urgent (Eisenhower) Matrix "Sections". 3. Drag most important tasks into Calendar for the beginning of the day (when we typically have the most energy). 4. Extend event to estimated length. 5. Do the same for fun/less important tasks for last half of the day.

Is there a way to make reminders show up in calendar? I often reference my calendar app and being able to see my reminders on my calendar would be great. I feel that this should be a feature created forever ago, but I haven’t seen it if it is.

@striker262 Ай бұрын

I haven’t found a way with the Apple Calendar. If you use Fantastical you can have your reminders on the calendar. In addition, I use Microsoft ToDo and it syncs with reminders and Fantastical.

@zoej8226 19 күн бұрын

they don't have a way to have a calendar event linked to reminders, but if your drag and drop a reminder into your calendar you can make an event prepopulated with the info in the reminder. If you change the reminder, it wont update the calendar event, but if you are usinging it for time blocking or for a couple important reminders you want on your calendar, it works fine

@MR-pr8tp 18 күн бұрын

Your videos are great: to the point without too much verbiage, and always show great examples. My favorite part of Reminders is setting a "location" to a list or items; and when I arrive at that location it pops up on my SmartWatch and iPhone. I buy specific items at specific stores so adding a location allows the list to pop up when I arrive at the location. Grocery shopping and marking off the list is so convenient. I even ask Siri to help but gets a lot of stares from others. And if I need a reminder at work, add the location and date and when I arrive on Monday, it pops up and am reminded. Same for medical questions: pops up on my watch so I don't forget to access the list!

Apple should make the options clearer. This app is not straight forward. Many people only use it for ‘quick’ to do list.

@AaronFigFront 5 ай бұрын

Other competitors in the task manager spaces are only more complex. When you have all those functions, UI just cannot get that simple. Todoist and other apps all require some time to learn how to use them.

Hi, I find your videos on the iPhone features very useful. I do have a question on the Reminders app…I do not get the ‘New Sections’ option when I hit the ellipsis at the top right. I’m on 17.4.1 on a 15 pro. Any thoughts as to why not?
