Apple not being fair

Why has Apple upgraded Reminders so that it's not available across all devices if you don't have the latest upgrade. I can't upgrade to Catalina on my MacBook 'cos it's too old. It works perfectly well so why do I have to buy a new computer just to get Reminders on it?

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.13

Upgraded Reminders I upgraded my Reminders without knowing that I would not be able to upgrade my iMac. It seems that my iMac cannot be upgraded to Catalina. I want my old Reminders back. Is there any way I can undo the upgrade of the Reminders and get my old Reminders back?

Reminder app won't upgrade because old Mac can't take Catalina The new reminders app in Catalina is hobbled and I can't use the new features! When I did my last OS upgrade, it told me that Reminders could not be upgraded because my old Mac Air could not go to Catalina. This is a circular problem. Can't move that old mac to Catalina and this is acknowledged. But can't upgrade Reminders on any new devices because of old Mac. Only solution is to get rid of old Mac Air that works just find for limited tasks? Can I not just remove Reminders from that old computer and have it upgraded on all new devices. Really bad since one of the key features I wanted in Catalina and IOS 13 was the new Reminders app. Any way around this? Thanks.

It isn't a matter of Apple not being fair but not rather not giving sufficient warning. There are other reminder programs available.

There are a number of reminder programs available that sync between the Mac & iOS devices. I've used ToDoist for quite a long while.

Not recommended to upgrade iOS reminders if this is the case.
