    Hey Carl. Nice video. Why do you ultimately prefer todoist even though you use Apple products and it doesn’t work with Siri?
    I looked at todoist and it seems awesome but the ability to make a reminder while driving with Siri and Apple reminders helps me keep honest about “never storing things in my head” instead of my system.
    How do you manage this without voice support and todoist?
    Thanks

    - A nice video. I enjoyed it. I have a question that I hope you might be able to answer for me; can Siri handle more then one item at a time ie. if you wanted to add Milk, eggs, and bread to your shopping list is there a way to have Siri enter the three items on individual lines with a single Siri call?

    Hi Carl, I hope that you see this post cause I could really use your help. My wife is starting to lose her memory to the point she forgets to do stuff in her morning routine. We were wondering if there is a way have Siri read out a reminders list one by one. She need it to read one, wait until she completed that task and then read out the next one until the list was complete. I don't think it will, but I figured I would reach out and ask someone who knows more about Siri and Reminders than I do.

    @rogerpeach3297 4 роки тому

    I didn't know about adding a web page to a reminder nor the email trick. Neither appears to work with Tick Tick but I might do a little bit of experimenting. All it does is add a reminder on Tick Tick saying "add this web page" but without the link.
    I should say, I use Tick Tick for my reminders and it works well with Siri. It "pulls through" items from Apple reminders to Tick Tick. The "magic" words are "remind me" for a reminder and "schedule" for a calendar entry on my Google calendar.

    We should have the ability to add new reminders to the top of a list or at least be able to sort them from newest to oldest. The longer the list of reminders the more you have to scroll to find the most current ones.
