00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.071
Hi, I’m Steve,

00:00:01.071 --> 00:00:03.009
one of the Support Humans
at The Omni Group.

00:00:03.009 --> 00:00:05.009
I’m going to walk you through

00:00:05.009 --> 00:00:07.009
using Location Reminders
in OmniFocus for iPhone.

00:00:08.525 --> 00:00:10.652
Before you can use location reminders,

00:00:10.652 --> 00:00:12.124
the first thing you’ll need to do

00:00:12.124 --> 00:00:13.462
is turn on Notifications

00:00:13.462 --> 00:00:15.982
in OmniFocus Settings,
in the “secret bar”.

00:00:16.482 --> 00:00:19.603
Under Notifications,
tap Sounds & Alerts,

00:00:19.603 --> 00:00:21.977
and make sure Show Alerts is turned on.

00:00:24.196 --> 00:00:27.870
Next, assign specific locations
to your Contexts,

00:00:27.870 --> 00:00:29.009
so OmniFocus knows

00:00:29.009 --> 00:00:31.009
where your task needs to be done.

00:00:32.462 --> 00:00:34.462
In the Context’s Location tab,

00:00:34.462 --> 00:00:36.462
you can change or add a location.

00:00:37.402 --> 00:00:40.796 line:0%
“Here” tries to determine
where you are, via GPS.

00:00:43.757 --> 00:00:46.453 line:0%
“Search” lets you
search for a nearby location —

00:00:46.453 --> 00:00:48.013 line:0%
for instance, a drugstore —

00:00:48.013 --> 00:00:50.013 line:0%
and choose one.

00:00:54.393 --> 00:00:57.315 line:0%
“Address” lets you enter
a specific street address.

00:01:04.631 --> 00:01:06.508 line:0%
“Contact” lets you choose an address

00:01:06.508 --> 00:01:08.508 line:0%
from your Contacts list.

00:01:13.720 --> 00:01:16.113 line:0%
“Pin” lets you press and hold on the map

00:01:16.113 --> 00:01:18.113 line:0%
to drop a pin anywhere you’d like.

00:01:23.594 --> 00:01:25.165 line:0%
Once you have a location set,

00:01:25.165 --> 00:01:26.319 line:0%
you can choose whether you want

00:01:26.319 --> 00:01:27.831 line:0%
the notification to trigger

00:01:27.831 --> 00:01:28.882 line:0%
as you arrive,

00:01:28.882 --> 00:01:30.882 line:0%
or when you leave the place.

00:01:32.032 --> 00:01:34.032 line:0%
Finally, choose a distance.

00:01:34.032 --> 00:01:36.488 line:0%
The small dot will
trigger the notification

00:01:36.488 --> 00:01:39.062 line:0%
within about a city block
of the location.

00:01:39.062 --> 00:01:40.569 line:0%
The medium circle will trigger

00:01:40.569 --> 00:01:42.470 line:0%
roughly a quarter-mile away,

00:01:42.470 --> 00:01:43.978 line:0%
and the big circle represents

00:01:43.978 --> 00:01:45.868 line:0%
about 6 or 7 miles,

00:01:45.868 --> 00:01:47.311 line:0%
or 10 kilometers.

00:01:48.180 --> 00:01:50.813
Then, the next time
you’re out running errands

00:01:50.813 --> 00:01:52.679
OmniFocus will give you a little nudge…

00:01:52.679 --> 00:01:54.192
(alert tone)

00:01:54.192 --> 00:01:55.380
…when you’re in the right area

00:01:55.380 --> 00:01:57.380
to complete an action.

00:01:58.151 --> 00:01:59.092
Thanks for watching!
