Choosing Where you want to be Reminded

In this lesson for Reminders on the iPhone we look at how to set where we want to be reminder when we add a reminder to the Reminders app on the iPhone.

Adding Where you want to be Reminded at
To add where you want to be reminded at, you tap on the ‘i’ to the right of the reminder or you can swipe the reminder to the left until you see More. Tap on More to get to the information screen. Now tap on Location to set the location of where you want to be reminded.

Setting if you want to be Reminded when you Arrive or Leave a Location
Below the location set above, you’ll see two options for when you want to receive a notification for your reminder – when you arrive and when you leave. Tap on if you want a notification when you arrive or when you leave the location.

Setting the Radius if where you want to be Reminded
To set the radius, or how close you need to be to the location you set above, you drag the blue dot on the circle in the map below where you set the location. You drag it to the right to expand the radius, drag it to the left to constrain it. Once you have it set, when you enter the radius of the blue circle, you’ll get a notification for your reminder.
