Reminders app search appears broken in Sequoia

[dmeehan]

Since upgrading to Sequoia yesterday, I am unable to get any results in the Reminders app search. I won't find any item in any category, and doesn't matter if I go to the list I know the item is in, or do it from 'all', 'today' etc. I have numerous lists to keep reminders organised, perhaps to the point where I rely on search to find out where I put something!

Confirmed it still works ok in the iOS 18 on iPhone and iPad. All of the reminders are sync'd, and I can see them in the relevant list (or smart list).

**POSSIBLE WORKAROUND**

If I enable reminders in calendar, I can use the Calendar search to find them. But still not working in Reminders itself

I have the same exact problem on Sequoia.

Upgraded to Sequoia last night and my Reminders app is now completely empty!

Same here. I have 17 items in Reminders and one "clean air purifier" comes up in search results. Not one of the other items comes up in a search.

Not here. Searching issues are usually Spotlight issues. If Spotlight isn't actively rebuilding its database (which would lead to lack of results) the next thing to check would be if "Events & Reminders" is checked in System Settings>Spotlight.

If Spotlight isn't rebuilding itself…and searches are still wonky…it might be necessary to delete the database and give it time to rebuild.
