Siri has the advantage of no tapping, but comes in at a whopping 22.3 seconds. Their website, with video evidence, shows that it takes 7.8 seconds and 3 taps to use NotifyMe, while Reminders takes 14.5 seconds, 8 taps to input the same task. While the reminders app has the advantage of being already on your iPhone and iPad with iOS 5, NotifyMe has a few extra features for your task list creating pleasure.įirst of all, NotifyMe takes less time to manually input a task. We’d love to tell you a bit more about it. One notable alternative that we’ve found is NotifyMe. If you’re not satisfied with the Reminders app, how about an alternative? You might want to try something different, or explore features that Reminders doesn’t have. Try NotifyMe, An Alternative To Reminders Perfect for sharing with those closest to us via the magic of iOS. If you chose View & Edit for their email address on the iCloud website, they’ll be able to add things to the list as well. When the person gets the invite email, they’ll be able to subscribe to the list. Add the email addresses of the folks you’d like to share that List with and click the Share button to send them an email invite to your List. Click on that round image and you’ll get a Share Reminders window to popup.
Each List you’ve created (assuming you’ve set up iCloud on the device you made the List on) will show up here, with a little gray broadcast/radio icon. Once the web version of your calendar has loaded, look down to the left hand corner of the window. You’ll need to click on the iCal icon, since that’s where Apple has located Reminders for now, just like on the Mac Desktop. You’ll notice that there’s no icon there for Reminders. Yet, wouldn’t it be slick if we could share, say, a shopping list with our husband or wife? Share a list of things to get done for a particular work project with our team members? What about set lists with the other folks in our disco band? That would be cool, right? It turns out that this is fairly simple yet not that intuitive to do.įirst up, head over to and log in with your iTunes ID. Reminder lists rock, right? They let us track of all the things we need to do, access the lists on an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch or even in iCal on our Mac. Collaborate On Reminder Lists With Others A purple map pin will show up in the center of your screen, which you can then add to your Contact list. Go to a place on your map you want to use as a trigger, and then just tap on the little curled up paper icon in the bottom right. This works the same if you just drop a pin on the map, whether there is an entry in the Maps database or not. You can now head back into the Reminders app and use the newly created Contact as your trigger location. Then tap Create New Contact, wait for the Contacts app to load, and hit the Done button. swipe down to the bottom of the screen, and tap Add to Contacts. When Maps finds the store, tap on the blue circle with the right facing arrow in it. Search for a location nearby, like Home Depot. Or, you can use the Maps app to find an address or drop a pin and then save that pin as a Contact.
But what if you don’t have the address in your Contacts list? You’re out of luck, and you’ll need to go into Contacts to create it.
Currently, Reminders requires an address from your Contacts list or your current location when adding a location-based Reminder.
