Custom reminders

How many times have you left your job and gone home and forgot to bring something? Or did I say when I get home I'll call my father and forget? Some people set a reminder, but it is impractical if you don't know when you will leave your job or when you will come home and so on. So, for years, Apple's system provided the feature to create reminders based on location. You choose to be reminded when you arrive or leave a certain location to do what you write.

Now, we recommend that you move.
