Siri and iPhone reminders

You know, prior to Siri, I had occasional reminder apps that I would use, but I didn't use them that frequently.

But with Siri, I find myself using reminders all the time. It is just so easy to add a reminder, I have no problem doing it. This is especially true of location based reminders. In fact, I would go so far to say that I would probably NEVER use location based reminders if I didn't have Siri. Programming a reminder is one thing, then also manually doing the location aspect - that would be far too time consuming.

Anyone else have similar thoughts? Anything you find yourself doing on the iPhone 4S that you don't think you would be doing without Siri?

I would agree with you 100% on this. I never used reminders before siri. Now I am using them all the time.

I use reminders, alarms & timers every day. I've had mixed luck with location based reminders. I've had a couple of occasions when the reminder did not pop up until the 2nd time I arrived at the location.
