Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- Just the basics. Apple Reminders as a to-do list
- For quick capture I use Apple Reminders or Speechly's To-Do mode.
- I’ve noticed that Apple Reminders, Apple Calendar, and Notes have really good integration overall with the OS—something I didn’t have on Android.
- Apple Reminders has gotten really good and if you live in that ecosystem you should try. Got nice update yesterday that lets you mark things urgent and sets an alarm.
- My workflow is that every project or area of my life has a todo list in a task manager (Todoist, Apple Reminders, ClickUp, etc.).
Cons
- I'll be honest – I've tried everything. Todoist, Notion, Agilo, Any.do, Apple Reminders, Google Tasks, physical planners. And here's the embarrassing part: I always start with so much energy. I organize everything beautifully, set up my...
- Yeah. As an apple user I don't like their calendars or reminders.

- The only pro about the native apple reminders app is the ease in which its built into the iphone and the notifications.
- I used Apple Reminders but moved everything to Obsidian.

If the deep work is computer based, or I’m on a call, doing laundry, literally anything where I can stop for 5 seconds and type, I just quickly type it into my Apple Reminders app
I really don't use it much for personal tracking. Apple's Reminders is fine for that.
I got better at using the Apple ecosystem. Reminders and calendar help a lot
I use Apple reminders for my personal recurring tasks.
This is especially true if you’re on iOS and macOS, Apple really biffed up Reminders and Apple Notes but also Shortcuts is a great productivity tool if you spend some time in there…
