Set digital reminders to organize your life

The Apple Reminders app is a good way to keep your life in order. Never forget a reminder with these simple tips! P.S. This page may contain affiliate links. Please see my disclosure for more information.

You can do more with Reminders too, like set an alert to be reminded about things when you message a specific person or are in a certain location.

Here’s an example of being reminded of something when messaging a person. To set this up, I clicked the reminder in the app and an “i” appeared next to it. I clicked that and it took me to edit the reminder’s details in this screen:

Then I chose to edit “When Messaging,” adding Michael to it as you can see above.

This is what the reminder then looked like:

The next time I messaged Michael, the reminder popped up:
