Reminder.url - what does it do?

jaredchurch

I see in latest release a new attribute of Reminder called url. I expected that this would allow me to add a url to a reminder so that it appears attached to the reminder.

However, I set the attribute and save the reminder, but I cannot see the value in the reminders app, or when an alarm comes on the reminder. The only place I seem to be able to see the reminder is in Pythonista itself.

Have I misunderstood the functionality, is this just an attribute available in pythonista and cannot use it anywhere else? I cannot see to find any more information than on here:
http://omz-software.com/pythonista/docs/ios/reminders.html

My script to create the reminder is very simple:
import reminders
r=reminders.Reminder()
r.title='Reminder with URL'
r.url='http://www.google.com'
r.save()
exit()

I am using iOS version 12.4.5

its not very obvious is docs but this should represent a url or address to access reminders and the said reminder.


webbrowser.open('x-apple-reminder://')

thanks...

:( a little disappointing for me - I realised afterwards a description I should have added, was that I was hoping it worked like when you create a reminder from safari using share-sheet.

One more reason I need to upgrade my phone :)
