Here are a few things that I love:<p>- The app icon changes based on the theme. I didn't know that was possible!<p>- Very clean visual design and UI. Really nice!<p>What I would improve:<p>- Some of my reminders from the Apple Reminders app have URLs attached to them, but there doesn't seem to be a way to click on them in your app. (I have to go to "View Note" and copy & paste into Safari). This happens for notes that were shared from Safari to the Reminders app.<p>- That permission screen in the beginning is really weird. I just skipped it. I prefer to grant app permissions when I actually need them, not when I just downloaded the app and launch it for the first time.<p>- The delete button is not really self-explanatory. I have never seen that specific icon in any iOS app, so I was surprised that it deleted my reminder when I clicked it out of curiosity.
I've been trying this for the last few days so here are my thoughts.<p>Let me preface that I just came back to iOS after two years android, used iOS 10 for a couple of weeks and now iOS 11. I like the design a lot and specifically the dark theme (as well as the dark icon). The creation process was something that was a little weird on my first try but works pretty good now and I like the presets for time based reminders.<p>What I would've liked would be some alert or note that told me what would happen with the stock reminders once I allow the required permissions. Because once I allowed access to my reminders from this app I would obviously like for the stock reminders app to no longer notify me since this app now does it. So maybe some heads up for the user once he enabled both access to reminders and notifications to disable the notifications of the stock app to avoid duplicate notificaitions. Nothing big, but something that I had to figure out myself that would've been nice to just be told in the app.<p>What seemed to be possible in iOS 10 was that you could mark a reminder as done from the notification, which doesn't seem to be possible here. Not sure if that's a limitation of iOS 11 or I've set up something wrong but it's rather annoying to go into the app to mark something as done. At least for how I use the reminders, I just want a quick notification to tell me that I need to go into my standup meeting or that I don't forget to order lunch. Right now I only have the option of "Open" (swipe to right), "View" & "Clear" (swipe to left) while all of them leave the reminder untouched. I would just want the notification to be shown, mark it off from the lockscreen and then go to the meeting or whatever. Again, as far as I can tell, the stock reminders behave the same in iOS11, but would be nice if this could be improved upon somehow.<p>An idea that I had in my head that I would like to have would be to combine time based and location based reminders into one. For example: "Remind me every weekday at 1PM if I'm at work to grab lunch". It's mostly just a quality of life improvement for me, I don't think it'd be that useful apart from these narrow scenarios so I'll probably just stick with time based for now and just tick them off even I'm not at the location.<p>Thank you for sharing!<p>P.S.: Used EX9EPF9YWRHY
I downloaded the app and went past the permissions screen. I was greeted with a blank page, list button grayed out, all I could do was open settings. I had to quit the app and reopen it.
