Abstract

Methods, program products, and systems for location-based reminders are disclosed. A first user device can receive an input specifying that a reminder be presented at a given location. The first user device can provide a reminder request, including type and content of the reminder and the location, to a server computer for pushing to one or more user devices. A second user device, upon receiving the reminder request, can determine a device location of the second user device. If the given location matches the device location, the second user device can present the reminder in a user interface.
