iOS 27 brings new features to the Reminders app. Here’s what’s new in Reminders in iOS 27.

Ability to Describe Your Reminder

Apple Intelligence in iOS 27 brings Reminders a new level of natural language support for new reminders. When creating a new reminder, Apple Intelligence now allows you to use your own words ]to describe a reminder and Apple Intelligence will help create it for you.

In theory, the new AI-powered feature should make reminder creation quicker and more seamless than before.

Upgraded Metadata Editor Inside Lists

In iOS 26, when creating or editing a task, you would be presented with five options above the keyboard row: Date, Location, Tag, Flag, and Camera.

New in iOS 27, Reminders moves all metadata options into a new box that surrounds your active reminder. The new UI lets you modify the following:

  • Date
  • Time
  • Urgent
  • Repeat
  • Location
  • Tag
  • Flag
  • Camera

  • It now “sorts grocery list items more accurately”
  • Grocery list sorting now expands to multiple languages
