What’s New in Reminders for iOS and iPadOS
Learn about the new features in Reminders in iOS 13 and iPadOS
All New
A completely rebuilt app that makes it easier than ever to create and organise reminders.
Quick Creation
Just type, talk to Siri or tap the new toolbar to create reminders. Siri also suggests reminders found in Messages.
Easy Organising
Use automatic smart lists like Today and Flagged, or organise by grouping lists or reminders.
What else is new
Use Siri to create reminders. You can use Siri with your voice, and Siri also works really well when you’re typing. Just speak or type the details of your reminder and Siri will understand when to remind you.
Tap the quick toolbar to easily add dates, times, locations, flags and even attachments like photos and scanned documents to your reminders.
Use subtasks when you need to add additional details to a reminder.
Group multiple lists of reminders together.
Tag people in a reminder, and the next time you’re chatting with them in Messages, you’ll get reminded that now might be a good time to talk.
Siri can suggest reminders for you. When you’re chatting with someone in Messages, Siri recognises possible reminders and makes suggestions for you to create them.
Customise the appearance of your lists with 12 beautiful colours and 60 expressive symbols.
Use iCloud to keep all your reminders and lists stored securely in the cloud and updated on all your compatible devices. Create reminders on your iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch or even in your car using CarPlay, and they will be available on your other compatible devices.
Get step-by-step instructions and information on the features in Reminders for iOS on your iPhone and iPad, or on your iPod touch.
