Hey guys and gals, I recently switched to iPhone from WebOS (At long last iPhone is on Sprint!), and I am loving it, save for this issue.
I thought reminders based on locaiton was a super-neat idea, so I am trying to get it to work. You see, I live on a private road to my apartment, so it's not on Google maps. Siri and the reminders app reads what my home address is perfectly, but I cannot seem to set my address as one that sets off the triggers for the alarm. I try to use pins to set up my location, but it reverts and saves as a generic "Apple Valley, Minnesota, 55124" instead of my actual specific address. I tried to set it as the public road by my house, but I sometimes drive a different way to my home and it doesn't set off. So my questions are:
1. Is it possible to set up my house as a more specific measurment, such as coordinates or something, as opposed to the wording of the address
2. How long is the range before the alerts send off? It appears I can set it up to work with an address that is a few yards away from the entrance to the private road.
Thanks
