Save time and increase productivity by editing multiple reminders at once, including marking them as done or revising their due date.
When using Apple Reminders, has there been a time when you wanted to update more than one item at a time? You may have wanted to apply a due date, add a flag, or mark off several reminders at once. Sure, you could do it one by one, but that’s a bit tedious and time-consuming.
Thankfully, the app allows you to edit multiple reminders at the same time. This is a wonderful feature that gives you the flexibility for the changes you want to make in one fell swoop.
Edit multiple reminders on iPhone and iPad
1) Open the Reminders app and go to the list containing the reminders you want to edit.
2) Tap the three dots icon on the top right, followed by Select Reminders.
3) Select each item you want to change.
4) You’ll then see your available options at the bottom. From left to right, here are the edits you can make:
- Date and Time: You can set or adjust the due date and, optionally, a due time for the reminders. You can also make them all repeat or remove the due date and time completely.
- Move: Move the selected to-dos to a different list.
- New Section: Lets you add a new section to this list.
- Delete: Delete all marked reminders at once.
- More: You can mark all reminders as complete or apply a tag or flag to them all. For shared lists, you’ll also notice an Assign option here, which lets you assign several tasks to someone quickly.
Being able to edit multiple reminders at the same time is a handy feature. It’s especially convenient when you want to mark many items as complete.
