Final thoughts
I've found that adding reminders directly from my calendar has really streamlined my daily planning and boosted my productivity. The ability to create tasks while viewing my appointments provides a comprehensive overview of my commitments.
As you start using this feature, you'll probably discover even more ways to tailor it to your needs, just as I have.
iOS 18's new Calendar reminders are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the extra features added. iOS 18 lets you send messages via satellite, revolutionizing remote communication. For those awaiting the update, iOS 17.6 is on the way. And beyond iOS, Apple is taking on Meta with a new open-source AI model that promises to be a very interesting industry development.
