Microsoft just turned Copilot into a cross‑device reminder machine — and your phone is now part of the workflow

Mockups showing Microsoft Copilot's new Reminders features syncing to an Android smartphone.

Microsoft is gradually (we stress gradually) rolling out a new "Reminders" feature for Copilot, bringing the chatbot closer to the feature set of rivals like Google Gemini (with Tasks) and OpenAI's ChatGPT. The feature is now available on Android and iOS, with limited support on the web. However, you can also create reminders from the Copilot app on Windows 11.

The Reminders feature lets you configure Copilot to send alerts at a specific time or after a set duration. For example, you can ask the chatbot to remind you to cancel a subscription, prepare for a meeting, or complete a task later in the day. Copilot uses the device's local time and date, enabling reminders to trigger within minutes if needed.
