Lists themselves not location based

Why doesn't Apple make the lists in Reminders location aware. I have lists for different stores I shop at with what I need to get at each place. Would certainly be nice if the entire list showed up when I arrived at the store for each list. I have a Walgreens list, a costco list, a local grocery list. Seems like a no brainer.

Hi Ron Jape,


We understand you need assistance with location-based reminders. We see you were linked from the article "Use Reminders on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch". As noted in the article "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."


If you are looking for a different feature, we would also recommend providing feedback here:

Hope this helps!

Have a great day.

Yes, I know this works for items in a list, but I want the List to be location aware. I don't want just broccoli to show up when I get to the store. I want the Grocery List which has all the items for the grocery store to show up when I get to the store. I shouldn't have to enable a location for every single item I buy at the store for the list to show up when I arrive. That would be a giant hassle. Seems more logical that when you get to Walgreens, all the items in your Walgreens list show up when you arrive and when you show up at Costco, that all your items in the Costco list show up.
