Using templates in iOS 17
Creating templates
Creating a template is easy. First, create a list of the tasks you want to create. Note that you must first create a list before you can create a template. If the list contains previously completed tasks, you decide whether you want to include them in the template. Then, open the list menu and select "Save as Template."
Using templates
Using templates in the Reminders app on iOS 17 is straightforward. After you create a template, it's saved to your templates list. To use a template, open the Reminders app, select "Add List," then "iCloud," and finally "Templates." Select a saved template and enter a name for the new list. Tap "Create."
Managing templates
Your templates are well-organized in the Reminders app. Open the app and tap "Lists" in the bottom right corner of the screen. Then select "Templates" to access your saved templates. Additionally, in a list for which you've created a template, two overlapping squares will appear in the menu bar as an access option.
sharing templates
You can not only use templates yourself but also share them with others. Open the Reminders app, select "Templates," and find the template you want. Swipe from right to left over the template and select "More" > "Share." Define the sharing type and select the desired platform.
