How to use Apple Intelligence to suggest reminders from any app in iOS 26

Apple Intelligence in iOS 26 introduces a new way to turn everyday details into reminders without needing to manually type them. Instead of only relying on the Reminders app, you can now share text, emails, or even websites to Reminders, and Apple Intelligence will suggest key action items. This feature makes it easier to stay organized when dealing with long messages, recipes, or travel details that you do not want to forget.

The process works directly through the Share sheet. If you have a webpage open in Safari, an email in Mail, or text in another app, you can highlight it and bring it into Reminders. Apple Intelligence will then analyze the content and generate suggested reminders. For example, it might extract the ingredients from a recipe or highlight a packing list from a travel itinerary. You can choose to add all suggestions or select only the ones that matter.

Here is how to use Apple Intelligence suggested reminders in iOS 26:

  1. Open a website in Safari, an email in Mail, or another app with the text you want to turn into a reminder.

  2. Tap the Share button. If there is no Share button visible, highlight the text first and then tap Share.

  3. From the Share menu, select Reminders.

  4. Under Suggestions, review the reminders created by Apple Intelligence.

  5. Tap Add next to the suggestions you want to include, or tap Include All to capture everything.

  6. Choose the list where you want your reminders saved.

  7. Tap the checkmark to confirm.

This feature is designed to help reduce the friction of keeping track of important details. Instead of copying and pasting information, you can let Apple Intelligence handle the extraction. However, since it relies on generative models, the suggestions may vary, and it is always best to double-check critical details for accuracy before relying on them.

Apple Intelligence suggested reminders are available in beta on iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, all iPhone 16 and later models, iPad mini with A17 Pro, and iPad models with M1 or later. You will also need Siri and the device language set to the same supported language to access the feature.
