Hello Sieghard,
Ok, I just tried settings several reminders which include a both a reminder
time and a target time, said target to be written in the actual reminder. Siri
got it right, each time.
For example, I said the following in one breath: “Remind me on Saturday at 1pm
to go to the stor

I said
“Remind me on Sunday at 6:00 that I have a program to watch at 8”.
When writing that down, I just realized that I didn’t specify a.m. or p.m., so
there’s no telling when she’ll remind me! I’ll let you know!
Thanks for all the great he
