Siri was designed to help you get things done, and part of that job description is creating and updating your Reminders. If you need to be prodded to pick up milk on the way home, order that present in time for the big party, or set up that lunch meeting before the end of the day, Siri’s there to help. These directions work on all of the best iPhones.
One of the easiest things to do with Siri is to have it set up a quick Reminder. Siri is so quick, in fact, that it’s almost always faster to use Siri than to tap your way through the Reminders app.
Tap Remove to cancel the reminder.
The Reminder will go into the default Reminders list. This will be «Reminders» or whichever list you set as the default list in Settings.
Because your iOS device knows where you are, you can set up Reminders based on location as well.
Tap Remove to cancel the reminder.
Just as with standard Reminders, the location Reminder will go into the default Reminders list. If you made a mistake or want to revise something immediately, you can tell Siri to «change the time to,» «change the title (of the appointment/event),» or «cancel» it entirely.
If you have multiple lists in Reminders, like a packing list, a party list, etc., you can tell Siri to create a to-do item specifically for one of those lists.
Tap Remove to cancel the Reminder.
The Reminder will then be placed in the List you specified.
Siri can remind you of «this,» where «this» is almost anything you’re looking at when you invoke Siri.
Say «Remind me of this.»
Siri will add it to Reminders with a link back to not only the app but also the specific content.
As you can see, Siri is very useful when it comes to setting up and sharing reminders from your iOS device.
As you can see, Siri has a lot of tricks up its digital sleeve! The next time you need to remember something, simply say, «Hey, Siri.»
