## Show Overdue Items in Reminders Badge Count

In our [Reminders guide](https://www.appsntips.com/apple-reminders-guide-best-task-management-app/), we have shown how you can use the app to manage your tasks with ease. The app is getting several new features, including a [Template List](https://www.appsntips.com/learn/add-template-list-reminders-iphone-mac/), improved Smart Lists, and more. We use Reminders along with Logseq - our [note-taking app](https://www.appsntips.com/best-note-taking-apps/) \- to manage all our tasks, and we couldn’t be happier. If you have not used the Reminders app in a while, we recommend you try it before discarding it for something fancy. With that out of the way, let’s get to our tutorial, shall we?

1. Open the ****Settings** app on your iPhone.
2. Scroll down to find ****Reminders** and tap to open it.
3. Scroll to the bottom and **enable** the toggle for Include Due Today.

Now, the Reminders app will also show overdue items in the badge count.
