Great video. But, have you noticed that Reminders doesn’t allow to add a file on the “add image option? It allows to scan a document but not to pick one from your files. Big time flaw that should be fixed by Apple. Do you know if IOS 18 will fix this issue? Thanks.

I used Reminders to organize my grocery shopping by the aisles I went down as I moved through the store. But Apple updated the app and "organized" my list by department. The store I shop at doesn't have the departments in the same order that Apple decided on. Items I used to encounter when I entered the store are, per Apple, now located in the middle of my shopping. As a result, I now have to create a shopping list in notes so I can again organize items by the layout of my local store. I wish there was a way to un-do the upgrade of reminders to make it useful again. AGGH.

@TheMacWhisperer 11 күн бұрын

Hi, I think you made this comment a few weeks ago and I tried to help. Here's the solution… Just turn off automatic sorting on that list. Change it from a grocery list back to a standard list by going into the info for that list and changing the type. This will revert it to the previous way of tracking things, and will allow you to either leave it unsorted, or for you to sort it anyway you like. Then you don't have to deal with notes. In many cases updates don't permanently change things, you still have the control to make changes yourself… And this is one of those cases.

Yes, they are... but you have to be on iOS 17. Once you are in any list click the 3 dots in the upper right corner, and choose "view as"and choose columns, then from the 3 dots you can add new "sections" to create additional columns.

Hi very nice video. I was considering buying a productivity sotware but now that i saw your video, I can easily do it with my Apple prodcuts (Mac M1, Ipad pro, Apple watch and Iphone) because they all sync! Why not take advantage of it because i already have them instead buying a new software. I didn't know that you can make colums in Reminders, now that I know i want to use them as Kanban, can you maybe make a video how to use columns in Reminders as Kanban layout? Thank you and I subscribed!

I enjoyed the tips. One thing I’ve found with smart lists is that I can’t share and collaborate them. Any workarounds? Or will iOS 18 allow this?

@TheMacWhisperer 11 күн бұрын

No workaround yet, because the contects of a smart list are really just a saved search... and if you share a search the other person will have different results. My workaround is to just make it a standard list (which is shareable) rather than a smart list. In truth i only have one or two smart lists, but i have dozens and dozens of standard lists.

Excellent video. Learned a lot. Was unable to figure out how to add tags to multiple items at once in column view on the Mac. I was able to select the items in the column view without a problem, but when I tried to add tags by either using the control or command keys, it just reverts to selecting one item.

@TheMacWhisperer 12 күн бұрын

Once you have all the reminders selected you can right click on them to select a tag, or drag all of the selected tasks onto one of the existing tags on the left.

As long as you are on iPadOS 17 or later it does. You click the three dots and select view as columns. In fact, they look GREAT on the iPad.

Do you have it turned on through iCloud? And is that where it turns off? You can find out by going to settings, Reminders, and accounts. If possible, only use iCloud for reminders, and I bet that issue will solve itself.

Question - I have a lot of tasks in a legacy app (Microsoft To-Do) that I’d like to migrate to Reminders. Is there an easy way to upload them to avoids duplicate data entry?

@zehph 10 күн бұрын

You can add you Microsoft account and sync reminders, they’ll just show up there and you can manage them from here moving forward, maybe move them to an iCloud synced list and disable the reminders sync to clean things up, but absolutely doable! 😊

@TheMacWhisperer 9 күн бұрын

@Zehph has a great suggestion. You should be able to sync them into reminders and then move them over. Unfortunately, there is no easy way to import them other than that, so hopefully that will work for you... otherwise, I hope you are really good at copy/paste....

Great video and full of useful info but….I never made to the end due to the pointless waffle. The first 50 seconds added nothing. The title said it all so go straight to tip number 1. Each 'tip' was too wordy, you clearly have a script in front of you so cut out all the filler and stay on the point. And try to be less 'professional actor' and more 'enthusiastic amateur' - the information is what’s important not your desire to be Tom Hanks. Very useful though so thanks.
