Reminders and location for places with no address

Hi everyone,

can anyone help me the situation?


Today I planed to do several operations in new-built neighborhood so I decided to make task in Reminders no to forget it. I can't even explain my frustration when I were unable to pick the point right in map: you were allowed to write an address in search field, which automatically converted into the location point but not allowed to set point directly. There isn't any other way to set up place for such kind of reminder due to addresses weren't registered yet.

Or the other case: I'd like to get a reminder when I cross specific road or specific point while driving highway not to skip turn.


Many tanks, Andrey

Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities, Andrey!


We understand you want to set a location based on a pin for Reminders. We'd be happy to point you in the right direction for this.


While this is not currently possible, to move a pin on the map for Reminders, you can set an area around the closest address you can find where this Reminder would be triggered: Use Reminders on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

"Add a location

Tap the Location button  to assign a notification based on where you are. Select one of the options provided, or tap Custom to add your own location, choose whether you want to be notified when arriving or leaving, and set the perimeter of your reminder area. 

To receive location-based reminders, make sure that Location Services is turned on. Open the Settings app, then tap Privacy > Location Services and turn on Location Services."


Have a great day!
