I have a morning shortcut I run that runs a bunch of other micro shortcuts. An example would be one that selects a random verb for me to focus on today in Japanese.

Since I just moved over from Things 3 to Reminders, I needed to update a lot of shortcuts to add Reminders for today in from the the shortcuts. It took me a second to figure it out. Hopefully this will help someone else in the future with this too.

Reminder for Today (right now)

1. Add the "Add New Reminder" action to your Shortcut.
2. Add your text to the "Reminder" box.
3. Select where the reminder will go or leave it as Inbox.
4. Click on "No Alert" and set it to Alert.
5. Leave it set to "At Time".
6. Right click on the last box (2:00) and choose Current Date.

Other Idea

Play with the Adjust Date action to have the Reminder set to some time later.
