Apple Reminders becomes much easier to trust when you stop asking it to do everything.
Keep the structure small
A simple setup usually works best:
- Inbox
- Today
- Later
Decide once in the morning
Move a small number of items into Today, then choose a single focus task for the lock screen.
Reset in the evening
Instead of endlessly rescheduling everything, clear the day with intent.
| List | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Inbox | capture without judgment |
| Today | what matters now |
| Later | safe parking for everything else |
