How to Add a Reminder to a List in the Reminders App

by

For iOS 13, Apple overhauled the interface of its Reminders app and added some new functions that make it a lot more competitive with rival third-party to-do apps.

As with the previous version of Reminders, you can create as many lists as you need in the new Reminders app, and add as many reminders to each as you like. Here's how it works.

  1. To add a reminder to a list you created, tap its name under My Lists.
  2. Tap the plus (+) button next to New Reminder in the bottom-left corner of the screen.reminders
  3. Give your reminder a name.
  4. Tap the small info ("i") button next to it to add notes to your reminder, opt to be reminded on a particular day and/or at a particular location, and give it a priority level.

To quickly move your new reminder to another existing list, tap the info button, tap List, then select the list you want to move it to.
