In this guide, we show you how to create Location-Based reminders on your iPhone and get reminded about something whenever you reach or leave a specific location.
Location-based reminders are useful in situations like when you want to buy something when you reach the store, call someone when you reach home, and more.
You can even create reminders that are triggered whenever you get in or get out of your car, which is also very useful.
