How do I add time and location reminders to a list?
In Just List you can set a time reminder on an item or a whole list, repeating daily, weekly, monthly or yearly, or a location reminder that fires when you arrive at or leave a place. Reminders are free.
How to do it
Open the item or list
In the app, open the item or the list you want to be reminded about and add a reminder.
Pick a time or a place
For a time reminder, pick when: at the time, 10 minutes before, 1 hour before or 1 day before. For a location reminder, pick a place on the map (or Home or Work) and whether to remind you when you arrive or when you leave.
Set it to repeat, if you need to
A time reminder can repeat daily, weekly, monthly or yearly.
Handle it from the notification
When it fires, tap Done or Snooze right on the notification, without opening the app.
In Just List you can set a time reminder on an item or a whole list, repeating daily, weekly, monthly or yearly, or a location reminder that fires when you arrive at or leave a place. It's all free, and the notification comes with Done and Snooze buttons.
The problem
A list you forget to open is just a list. You remember the grocery list the moment you walk in the front door, and "return the library book" waits patiently for three weeks.
Time reminders
- On a single item or a whole list.
- When: at the time, 10 minutes, 1 hour or 1 day before.
- Repeat daily, weekly, monthly or yearly.
- Done or Snooze, right from the notification.

Location reminders
- Fire when you arrive at a place or leave it. Say, your grocery list right as you pull into the store's parking lot.
- Pick the place on a map, with a radius of 150 to 1000 meters. Home and Work are there as fixed anchors.
- Up to 8 active at once.
- Park Here: one tap, and you get a reminder when you walk away from the car.
- The app needs location permission, including background location.

And from the web?
You can set a reminder on the web too, but it rings on your phone, after you open the app and it syncs.
What's free and what's Plus
Reminders are free, both time and location. You don't need Plus for any of them.
