Reminders cannot be marked complete since upgrade to macOS Tahoe (both 26.0 and 26.0.1)

When I mark a reminder to 'done' on my iMac I click the radio button. The button turns to filled, but the reminder doesn't dissapear. On my iPhone & iPad & MacBook (connected via iCloud) the reminder stays 'unfinished', and when I restart the reminder app on my iMac, the reminder reappears as 'unfinished' as well.

iMac 24″, macOS 26.0

Yours is the first report I have read for this as an issue in Tahoe.

Same issue here. I found that quitting and restarting the Reminders app is a quick fix. However the behaviour does return, unpredictably later (could be a few minutes, could be days).

I have the same issue. Reminders worked perfectly before Tahoe. I tried every single “fix” I could find on the web. It might work for a day, or a few hours, then return. I have switched over to Todoist, with a ton of Shortcut automations to automatically move new reminders added via Siri to my Todoist Inbox. It was so much nicer when using Reminders with Siri, though. I sure hope this long-standing issue gets fixed.
