You can easily create
more helpful reminders
using the quick toolbar
in the Reminders app.
With the quick toolbar,
you can set a due date,
add a location,
flag your reminder,
and add an attachment.
Before you start,
you'll need to make sure
your iPhone is updated
to iOS 13.3 or later
and that Reminders is turned on
in your iCloud account settings.
You may also be prompted
to upgrade your reminders
when you open the app.
First, let's add a reminder,
like checking the weather
before you go on a hike.
If you want to be reminded
on a certain day or time,
tap the time button
above the keyboard,
then pick one of the options or
set your own by tapping Custom.
To add a location
to your reminders,
tap the Location button.
Adding a location
helps you remember to do things
in certain places,
like when you arrive home
or get into the car.
Select one of the locations
provided
or add your own
by tapping Custom.

If you want to receive
location-based reminders,
make sure that Location Services
is turned on in Settings.
To flag a reminder
as extra important,
tap the flag button.
This will add it
to the Flagged Smart List
on the main screen
of the Reminders app.
To attach a photo or
scanned document to a reminder,
just tap the Photos button,
then use the camera
to take a new photo,
scan a document --
like a receipt --
or choose a photo
from your library.
And that's how you can
easily personalize tasks
with the quick toolbar
and let the Reminders app
do all the remembering.
