10 Samsung Reminder tips to boost your productivity
A Samsung Reminder user shares 10 tips and tricks to get more out of the app, from location-based alerts to photo attachments.
Location-based reminders are highlighted as a powerful feature. Users can set alerts triggered by arriving at or leaving a specific place, with customizable radius sensitivity. The tip suggests organizing shopping lists by store location and setting recurring reminders for frequently needed items, which can appear on a car's infotainment system when pulling into a shopping complex.
Samsung Reminder Suggestions save time by generating new reminders from past usage. Typing into the search field shows similar reminders already created, which can be tapped and modified rather than starting from scratch. This is useful for recurring tasks like doctor's appointments.
Checklists are built into the app, making it suitable for shopping lists and other multi-item tasks. Users can create a list and tie it to a time or location. The author notes using this for all shopping lists and reserving Google Keep for goals and habit tracking.
Adding photos to reminders provides extra context. The author uses this to photograph medical sensor boxes and serial numbers, saving manual entry and making parts or tools easier to identify later. A single picture can convey more than a plain text reminder.
Categories help keep reminders organized. Instead of one long list, users can create custom sections, such as "Freelance Work" for one-off projects. The author emphasizes that organizing by categories makes managing reminders much easier.
