Is search broken in Reminders in ios16?

I’ve put ios16 on my iPhone 12.

Just tried to search in Reminders and it seems to be returning little or no matches. I use this feature quite regularly so it’s a bit of a loss until it’s fixed.

can anyone else confirm this?

iPhone 12

Unable to search for reminders after iOS 18.4.1 update Has anyone noticed after updating when searching for a reminder It doesn’t find it anymore. Now I have to manually go through all my reminders to find the one I’m looking for. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Search in reminders in iOS 16.0.1 BROKEN I have an iPhon14Pro running iOS16.0.1 When I search for keywords that I know exist and can see in future reminders, the search gets no hit. This is a major inconvenience because I use reminders for work and personal items. A few interesting observations - it appears that recurring reminders do get a hit reminders that I set up after I upgraded to new iPhone/iOS appear to get a match irrespective of whether they are recurring or one time everything worked OK for me on my iPhone13Pro. On my iPhone14Pro, my reminders got created as part of restore from iPhone13Pro. Not sure if this search issue affects only those one-time reminders from iPhone13Pro which I restored on iPhone14Pro. In the absence of search working right, I am forced to go through the full list of reminders manually, to determine if I positively setup a reminder or not! This is taking productivity backwards :( I really wish this issue gets fixed soon!!

iPhone Reminders Search Function Not Working I have an iPhone 13 and I'm running iOS 16.5.1. I've turned the phone off and on again several times. The search function doesn't work most of the time in the Reminders app. It does work VERY occasionally. It does work on my laptop at iCloud.com. Suggestions for getting it to work consistently on my phone? It used to be a great help in finding specific Tasks througout my list. Now it's just frustrating!

As I said, I tried it and it works fine.

I'd suggest restoring your phone using a computer. That will install a fresh copy of iOS.

It works fine for me.

Have you done basic troubleshooting such as turning your phone off and then back on, force quitting Reminders?
