Start your day with a
customized ‘Today’ notification
Here’s one you have to turn on. If you’d like to start
your day with a rundown of all your all-day reminders
(in other words, those that aren’t set to a specific time),
Reminders will send you a handy notification in the
morning. By default, it’s set to push at 9am. To turn it on
(and set a specific time), go to the Settings app, press
Reminders, and toggle the Today Notification to green.
To schedule this reminder for another time besides
9am, press the blue time stamp under the toggle and
configure the scroll wheel that pops up.It reminds you about topics
when you text someone in Messages
Ever wanted to tell someone something, but wanted to
wait until they text you in order to deliver the news?
You can now set Reminders to trigger a notification that
appears at the top of the screen when you chat with
that person in the Messages app.
To set it up, start typing a reminder like you normally
would. Once you’re done, press the little ‘i’ in the circle
to the right of the reminder. A menu entitled Details
will pop up. Around the middle of the Details page, flip
the toggle beside Remind me when messaging to green.
Underneath that prompt, you’ll see a prompt for Choose
Person. Press it.
Your contacts list will pop up, and you can choose
a specific person to associate with the reminder. (If
you’ve made any groups, you can also select them by
pressing Groups in the upper left.) Once you’ve made
your selection, press Done.Start your day with a
