Reminder
Safe to disable: com.samsung.android.app.reminder Safe to disable Vendor documentation
Samsung's to-do and reminder app, reached from the Calendar app, that alerts you at a time or place. It is safe to disable: you lose nothing most people will miss.
What it does
Reminder is Samsung's to-do list. You create reminders in the app, from the Calendar's Reminder tab or by voice, and it can alert you at a set time, when you arrive at or leave a place, or repeat on a schedule. It can also sync with Microsoft To Do. On most Galaxy phones the app is reached through Calendar rather than its own icon, and it runs in the background to deliver alerts.
Also shown as Samsung Reminder.
If you disable it
Samsung reminders stop alerting and the Reminder tab in Samsung Calendar goes away. Google Tasks and other to-do apps are not affected.
