The Reminders app on your iPhone is a powerful tool which helps you get organized and reminds you of important tasks and events. Creating a reminder gives you a free virtual secretary that will call your attention to significant items on your to-do list. You can edit reminders as information and events change. You can also delete reminders that are no longer of use.
Aside from creating simple reminders, the iPhone’s Reminders app is smart enough to scan and detect your location and give out reminders based on your current location. By utilizing GPS technology, your phone can trigger location-based reminders whenever you leave or arrive at a certain place. If the feature sounds complicated to you, keep reading, and you will discover how simple it is to use.
