If the Reminders list appeared after you tapped the Snooze button,
then tapped the blinking alarm indicator, then tapped the Done
button, the reminder continues to snooze.

this time interval, the Reminders list screen appears again. You can go

Some applications provide a visual, and optionally audible indication, but do
not otherwise disrupt your work flow. Subtle alarms do not display a
Reminder screen. Instead, a blinking indicator flashes (in applications that
support it) when an alarm is present.

Understanding the blinking alarm indicator
In applications that allow it, a blinking alarm indicator appears in the Status
Bar under the following conditions:
While viewing a Reminder screen or Reminders list screen, you tap the
Done or the Snooze button.
A subtle alarm is present.
The indicator appears in two different states:
Off. The indicator is not shown at all when the list is empty.
Blinking. When there is an item in the list, then the “exclamation
point” indicator blinks on and off until you empty the list.
Tapping the indicator opens the Attention Manager in list mode, even if there
is only one item.
