Calendar applications are meant to simplify the task of organising events in your life, and Google Calendar happens to be the go-to app for millions. It helps to stay well managed and coordinated at home as well as work via reminders. Just like a to-do list, reminders can be placed on your calendar.
Reminders take up very little space on your calendar, and last for a limited amount of time. Add a Reminder to your Google Calendar and it will stick around until you mark it as done. You can use this time-management and scheduling feature on your desktop as well as mobile device. Read below to know how:

If you are someone who prefers voice control, you may be glad to know you can add reminders according to your preference. Using Google Assistant, say ?Remind me to? followed by the information about the reminder you want to set.
You will be asked by your Assistant when you want to be reminded. Enter requirements and the Reminder will reflect in Google Calendar. Mark it as Done. On mobile, click the appointment reminder in your calendar and then tap Mark as done.
P.S: The reminders added show up on Google Calendar. This feature enables you to track them and also make additions. Completed reminders will reflect crossed out at the top with the day it was completed on. This enables you to review your accomplishments.
It is important to note that you can?t expect to use the Reminder functionality at any point on a past date.
Reminders do not reflect in third-party calendar apps, if you sync Google Calendar with, say, the macOS Calendar app.
