I’ve had issues with Microsoft reminders since the days of Outlook on Windows 7 and prior. One reason is their handling of “dismiss”. Once you dismiss, I would never get a reminder again for any future (e.g. daily or weekly) reoccurrence. The fact that this type issue is still going on many many years later is beyond words. I’ve missed so many reminders on my iPhone by using the To Do app, that I had to switch to Google tasks. Why can Google and Apple apps handle reoccurring reminders and iPhone notifications so cleanly and reliably, but Microsoft struggles with this basic functionality? What a shame to be paying for 365 and I can’t use certain basic features.
