iPhone and iPad on iOS 15.1, Mac Pro on Mojave 10.14, and work MacBook Air on Big Sur 11.6. Just this last week, all devices have pretty much stopped syncing reminders. I rely heavily on this for workflow management and it’s throwing me off.

Anyone else seeing problems?
 
Had a hiccup with Reminders syncing between iOS devices on Nov 15, but other than that, has been working.
 
I’m in the same boat. Similar set up. iPhone 11 Pro Max, MacBook Air, latest iPad Air, MacBook Pro. All up to date. Have tried hard resets, removing iCloud account, etc. all to no avail.

The reminders will show up, say if I add a new one on my phone. It’ll pop up and notify on my iPad. But if I select completed on my phone, it won’t reflect that on the other devices.

Hope someone has a fix, cause I have to believe this is more widespread than just a few of us.
 
Have this issue today on my iPhone, running 15.4 beta. I assume that's the culprit, but not sure. Anyone not on beta have the issue now?
 
It doesn’t appear to be the beta. I have 2 iCloud accounts and out of curiosity I experimented this morning. From my ipad which is on the beta I set 2 Reminders, one on my primary iCloud account and one on the secondary one. I checked my phone, which is not on the beta, a few minutes later and the reminder that I set on my secondary account was in the list. The one from my primary account was not. So some accounts are syncing and some aren’t.

This is very similar to the Mail issue last year that affected so many but not all. One of my accounts was extremely sluggish during the day - messages could take an hour or more to download. The other account was normal, sending and receiving messages happened essentially immediately.
 
Have this issue on 15.4 public beta 3, submitted issue thru feedback app this morning
You might want to go through iCloud support. As I found this morning only certain iCloud accounts are affected regardless of beta status. I have 2 accounts and one of them syncs properly on all devices, only one of which is on a beta, the other does not sync at all. Not everyone will be experiencing this whether on a beta or not.

iCloud support said it’s a beta issue, not iCloud, who the F knows until a new beta comes out and we see if that fixes it

It can be both. A number of us had the issue before ios15 (and then
Anyone know if beta 4 resolves the Reminders syncing issue?
it seems to have for me. Syncing from Watch to other devices still slow. But phone syncing almost instantaneously

Beta 4 fixed the Reminder issue for me. I did have to turn syncing on/off to get them to sync.
