Including location info lets Siri remind you about the item when you approach or leave a location.
A location can be your current location (“here”), or an address in Contacts. To let Siri know about
your home and work locations, see “Telling Siri about yourself” on page 41.

Remind me to call my mom when I get home

Â

Remind me when I get to the office to call my wife

Â

Remind me to pick up flowers when I leave here

Â

Remind me to check the time when I get back here

Â

Reminders are added to the default reminder list.
Set the default list for Reminders: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Default List.

To keep a list without setting a specific time or location to be reminded:

Remember to buy milk

Â

Add eggs to my groceries list

Â

If Siri asks when you want to be reminded, you can say “never.”

If you have a list visible in Reminders, you can add to it just by saying “Add”:

Add eggs

Â

When you create a reminder with Siri, Siri displays it for you to confirm.

You can confirm, cancel, or let Siri know you want to change something:

Change the time to 7

Â

Make it Tuesday instead

Â

Change that to: Get the car washed and waxed

Â

Move it to my Work list

Â

Move it to my Personal list

Â

Once you confirm the reminder, you can tap it to open the Reminder app and see the reminder
and its details.
