bottom right of the main Reminders interface. A menu

will pop up that will let you set a name for the list and

set a specific icon. You can choose from    60   different

icons (including everything from umbrellas to game

controllers), and you can choose one of     12   hues for an

icon background colour.

You can assign individual reminders to the list by

creating them directly from the list interface or by

pressing the blue ‘i’ with a circle that appears beside a

regular reminder. Press List in the menu that pops up,

and you’ll be able to choose the list from there.

...then add those lists to groups

If that’s not enough customization, you can also now

make groups for these lists. To make a group, press

the Edit button in the upper right when you’re on the

Reminders home screen and then press the Add Group

prompt that pops up in the lower left. You can then

select a name and press the Include button to select

which lists you want.

Alternatively, when you’re looking at a list of lists,

you can hold down your finger on the name of a list

and then drag the list’s icon on top of the icon for

another list that you’d like to pair it with. A New Group

menu will pop up, and you can name the group from

there. You can also add other lists by pressing Include

beneath the prompt for the title.

And you can share those lists

with colleagues, friends, or family

Lists may have been in Reminders for a while, but here’s

a cool new feature: you can now share lists with other
