on my actual phone where i physically created the reminder...  I tried toggling off the reminder button

    Hi AppleLover5271, 


    I understand that you are not getting the notifications for the Reminders that you set up on your iPhone, but they do appear on the iMac. I depend on Reminders to alert me during the day, so I can understand your concern. I will be happy to help you with this. 


    You did a good job checking those settings. I would also like for you to check Settings > Notifications. Scroll to Reminders and tap that. Make sure that Allow Notifications are on. There you can also turn on/off the different sections like Show in Notification Center, Show on Lock Screen, etc. For more information on Notifications, please see the following article: 


    Use Notifications on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch


    Give those settings a look over and test out the reminders again. If needed, set up a quick test reminder and see if it is now working properly for you. 


    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a great day!

    I have the same problem. I checked the settings and the notifications as you suggested but the reminders app is not even listed in my list of applications. I have checked the list multiple times now to make sure that I am not missing it. Thanks for your help in advance! (If it helps, I have an iPhone 5s)
