There are a lot of other cool options in here for reminders.

When you have a Reminders list that is empty you'll get 6 completed. You can check it off to show it's completed. You can click to select any item in here and hit the Delete key to delete it. So I'll get the reminder on my iPhone when I'm out today at 6:00 pm to pick up milk. Which means that these will sync to my iPhone and iPad just without any additional action from me. Hopefully it's simple like it is for me and everything is just under iCloud. So it's important to be aware of where the Reminders list is located. Notice on the left sidebar I see iCloud and I've got these four lists under iCloud. So, for instance, having a gmail account with Reminders and also an iCloud account with Reminders. It is possible to have more than one type of account that uses Reminders. So if I go to Reminders, Accounts, it will jump to System Preferences where it shows me I've got an iCloud account and in that iCloud account I can see I've got Reminders turned on. Now it's important to realize that there are accounts that have to go through Reminders because Reminders are something that work in the Cloud. I can change that by clicking on it, so I can change it to 4, change it to 6. If I hit I there I will get information and it will say this reminder is set for On a Day and it has the specific time. It actually translates the at 5 pm to today at 5:00 pm, an actual time. So I'll just the Reminders list called reminders. The list that is selected is the one the reminder will go into. I can hit Command N or File New Reminder.

To add a reminder I can hit the plus button here. If I look at Scheduled I'm basically seeing what upcoming reminders I've got. I can more easily see what I've got if I go to View, Show Sidebar and then I can see them all listed here on the left side. A shopping list, an ideas list, and one called gifts. In this view here I can use the dots at the bottom to go between them.

You can create multiple lists inside of Reminders. So when you run Reminders you may get one of several different views here.
