“Do I have a meeting at 10?”
“Where is my 3:30 meeting?”

Tap the event, then tap Edit at the top right.
In the event details, tap Alert.
Choose when you want to be reminded.
For example, “At time of event,” “5 minutes before,” or another choice.
Note: If you add the address of the event’s location, Calendar uses Apple Maps to look up locations, traffic conditions, and transit options to tell you when it’s time to leave.

Tap Done.
To remove the attachment, tap the event, tap Edit at the top right, swipe left over the attachment, then tap Remove.
