This video shows how to use Alloy 3 to automate your reminders. An Alloy's Action is a work need to be done on iPhone or iPad. A ToDo or "Reminder to do something" is a work to be done in general. So there is striking similarities between Actions and Reminders. That is why we decided to put together Actions and Reminders in one single app.
Now Reminders can be optionally associated with Actions. So when the user taps to complete such a Reminder, it launches an associated Action and then completes the Reminder when the Action finishes. For example, completion of a "Call Kate" Reminder will initiate a phone call to Kate. Or completion of a "Send birthday wishes to Jeff" Reminder will lead to sending a made-ahead SMS to Jeff at a right time.
