Where is reminders on Iphone 5?
Got it on my imac with mavericks. Its updating on the icloud. Can't find it on my iphone though. Instructions say to goto "background apps" but reminders is not listed there. Http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4970
Remainders is a pretty powerful task list app. While it's not a full project management suite, it does its job nicely with an easy to use user interface, location-based notification triggers, and iCloud syncing. Let's start by walking you through the basics of using the Reminders app in a more efficient manner than just tapping away and hoping it all works out.
First, we need to create a new reminder. Launch Reminders from your iPhone. Tap the plus button in the upper right corner of the white area. The app will drop to the bottom of your current list and bring up the iOS keyboard. Type in your reminder. You can also just tap into the blank line below the last entry in your list.
When it's typed in, tap on the Reminder you just created, and the keyboard will slide away. The Details screen will also pop up, where you can set a Reminder date or location trigger by tapping on the Remind Me field. Unfortunately, iPad does not have location-based Reminders. You can also set a Priority and add notes to your reminder here as well. Once finished, tap Done.
Of course, a good task management system should have a way to categorize things. Reminders has Lists, which are groups of reminders put together into categories you define. For example, to create a list of reminders for work, tap the button with the three horizontal lines on it, and then tap the Edit button in the top right corner. Tap on Create New List and type in "Work." You've now created your own list. Tap Done to go back to the main Reminders screen.
Notice the top of the Reminders screen? You can change the view by tapping on the List button to see all of your reminders sorted by list, or you can tap on Date to sort your reminders by date. To switch lists, simply swipe right or left in List view.
When in Date view, a swipe left or right will move one day in the calendar, while a tap and drag along the dates on the bottom will take you to the specific date you stop on. Just like in iCal, you can tap the Today button to take you back to the Reminders for the current date. A Tap on the calendar icon (it replaces the three lines List button in the upper left corner in Date view) will take you to an actual calendar, which can be swiped through as well, though up and down is the way it works in this view.
That should have you up to speed with manually creating Reminders on your iPhone. If you have an iPhone 4S, of course, you can just tell Siri to remind you of what, where, and when you need to do something. The rest of the steps above still apply, though, for editing and scheduling of that Reminder.
- Why are the reminders on my iPhone not working? I've tried absolutely everything. It won't let me create a new reminder at all. It won't even let me add a list to the schedule list. It just says "new list" in grey with a "+" plus sign beside it and when I click it, absolutely nothing happens. I click everywhere. I don't know what else to do. I've looked in settings, YouTube, Google, I'm out of options.
- Where can I find a device worn on the wrist that vibrates and shows unlimited alarms/ reminders? It needs to be compatible with an iPhone but surely for just alarms and reminders, there will be something cheaper than an iPhone smart watch?!
- What app do you use for date reminders? I don't like the reminders in iphone calendar because you only have 9 am like in the photo. I want app that I can edit the time not like always at 9:00 when I use the app in my iphone.
- Reminders stopped working on iPhone 4S? I updated my iPhone 4S to iOS 7.1.2 and ever since my reminders haven't been working. When I click the little plus sign to add a reminder, nothing happens and it's a grey-ish colour. Does anyone know how to resolve this?
