Select and Edit Multiple Reminders

In this video, we’re going to look at how we can edit multiple reminders at the same time in the Reminders app on the iPad. This feature was added with iPadOS 14. Let’s go to my iPad. So I’m in my reminders app here, and I am looking at my groceries list. If we look here, you’re going to see a, have a few items.

Well, now, with iPadOS 14, what we’re able to do is edit multiple items here. As an example, let’s say I wanted to mark a few of these as complete. I want to mark them all at once. Well, the first thing you need to do is you need to select the reminders that you want to modify. To select them. You go up to the more button on the upper right-hand corner. I tap on it. And then you’ll see ‘select reminders.’ Tap on it, and now, while you’re able to do is select your reminders. So I’m just going to select my items here. I’m going to go with my oranges, my apples, and the hamburger. I want to mark these as complete to do that.

You go down to the bottom here, and you’re going to see another more button, the three dots. And when I tap on it, what I’m able to do is mark them as complete. When I tap on this, it’s going to mark all three items as complete. We can see they are no longer there because they are completed.

What else can we do? Well, let’s go back and select my reminders again. So I’m going to go up to the more button in the upper right-hand corner. And I go over to select reminders. And then I select my reminders. So we’re just going to select these here. And now, when we go down to the bottom, this is where we went and marked them as complete. You’re going to see; we also have more options here.

I can change the date of these reminders. I tap on this. I get my calendar picker as well as my time picker. And I’m able to select a date and time for all of these reminders that are chosen. I can also so move them to a new list. I tap on this, and I can move them to a new list. I can also delete them. And then, if I want to flag them and mark them as complete when I tap on the more button, I’m able to flag them.

So that’s how we modify multiple reminders in the Reminders app. Simultaneously, the first thing we need to do is go up to the more button in the upper right-hand corner. You’re going to see select reminders, tap on that. And then you’re going to be able to select all of your reminders that you want to modify. Just select the reminders you want to modify. And then down at the bottom. You’re going to be able to add a date to all of them, move them to a different list, delete them, mark them as complete, or flagged them.

So that’s how you edit multiple reminders at the same time in the reminders app on the iPad.
