Reminders App on iOS 5
10/24/11 23:44
Somehow, the Reminder app in iOS 5 seems be designed with Siri in mind.
Reminders workflow without using Siri:
Step 1 - Launch the Reminders app and create a new reminder

Step 2 - Chances are life happens at times other than the default 9 AM reminder that the app creates for you. Tap the reminder created in step 1 to transition to the next screen and bring up the on-screen keyboard

Step 3 - Go through a series of taps and add additional detail as required to complete creating the reminder

Reminders workflow through Siri:
Step 1 - Launch Siri and ask her to create the reminder

Step 2 - There is no step 2. Your reminder is already created in step 1; complete with the correct date and time (or location geo-fence if you so choose)

Boom!
