Original Abstract Submitted

A computing device may implement a method for creating and providing reminders during navigation sessions. The method may include initiating a navigation session for providing a set of navigation instructions to a user from a starting location to a destination location along a route, and receiving, from a user during the navigation session, an input including a request to create a reminder. The method may further include analyzing the input to determine: (i) a content of the reminder, and (ii) a trigger condition for providing the reminder, the trigger condition including a trigger location on the route, and storing the reminder, including the content and the trigger condition. The method may also include, detecting, during a subsequent navigation session, the trigger condition, and, in response to detecting the trigger condition, providing the reminder.
