How it works
Three steps.
- 1
Switch it on
In Profile, under Calendars & sync, allow Reminders. It is asked for apart from calendar access; you can have one without the other.
- 2
Reminders come in
One with a date and a time becomes a fixed thing in that day. One without a time waits in Tasks.
- 3
Give it a time, or tick it
Pick a time, or tap “Place it for me”. Ticked off in either app, it is done in both.

In detail
What it does for you.
Done is done, both ways
Tick a reminder in Reminders and it is done in TimeLoop. Tick it in TimeLoop and it is completed in Reminders.
A time when you are ready
A reminder without an hour is not given one behind your back. It waits until you choose one, or ask TimeLoop to place it.
Notes come along
A reminder’s note comes in with it. What you then change in TimeLoop stays as you made it.
No doubles
Each reminder is remembered, so reading the same list again adds nothing twice. One you remove in TimeLoop stays removed.
What comes in, exactly
The open reminders from all your lists, and the ones you ticked off during the last week, so that a tick made in Reminders reaches TimeLoop.
A reminder due at a date and a time is treated like an appointment: fixed, and thirty minutes long unless you change it. A reminder with only a date, or with none, waits in Tasks.
What goes back
Whether it is done. Tick an imported reminder in TimeLoop and it is completed in Reminders the next time the two sync; untick it and it is open there again.
What does not go back: tasks you write in TimeLoop are not added to Reminders, and a time you give a reminder in TimeLoop stays in TimeLoop.
iPhone only, and free
Reminders sync is free, like calendar sync. It is an iPhone feature; on Android the setting is not shown. Having a whole day planned from a sentence is part of TimeLoop Pro, but giving a reminder its time needs no Pro.
Questions
Asked before you asked.
Which reminders come in?
The open reminders from all your lists in Apple’s Reminders app, and those ticked off in the last week.
What happens to a reminder with no time?
It waits in Tasks. No time is invented for it: you pick one, or ask TimeLoop to place it.
Does ticking in one app tick the other?
Yes, both ways, the next time the two sync.
Are tasks I write in TimeLoop added to Reminders?
No. Reminders come into TimeLoop; TimeLoop’s own tasks stay in TimeLoop. What goes back to Reminders is whether a reminder is done.
Does it work on Android?
No. Reminders sync is an iPhone feature.
Is it free?
Yes. Calendar and Reminders sync are part of the free version.
