  1. To add a scheduled reminder to a list you created, tap its name under My Lists.
  2. Tap the plus (+) button next to New Reminder in the bottom-left corner of the screen.reminders
  3. Give your reminder a name.

  5. Tap the toggle next to Remind me on a day.
  6. Tap Alarm to select a date on which to be reminded.reminders
  7. To be choose a specific time to be reminded on the date you selected, tap Remind me at a time.
  8. Tap Done in the top-right corner of the screen.
