Apple Reminders app has got a long due revamp in iOS 13 and macOS Catalina. Aside from sporting an intuitive user-interface, the app has also got a host of helpful features including “Remind Me When Messaging” and the ability to create subtasks and sublists. As someone who relies on timely alerts to tackle workloads, I welcome this new addition. It sort of simplifies the process of managing reminders. If you are yet to put your hands on this user-friendly feature, now is the right to learn how to make subtasks and sublists in Reminders app on iPhone, iPad or Mac.
There are multiple ways to create a group of lists or convert several reminders into subtasks. While I find the typical method straightforward, the gesture-based way is my favorite as it works as smoothly as the three-finger text editing and two-finger tap gestures. As is usually the case with the Apple ecosystem, the process feels seamless across iDevices. Enough talk? Let’s get on with the guide!
- Launch Reminders app on your iOS or iPadOS device.
- Next, scroll down and choose Subtasks.
