"Reminders" doesn't work any more.

The only message I hear is "Excuse me. Reminder."

The actual text you punch in should follow that greeting.

Nothing but silence...

It worked in Mojave, but Catalina has messed it up.

Any ideas ? Thanks very much.

Done that with no success. I think the problem is Reminder>Edit>Speech>Start Speaking - I can't get Start Speaking to highlight, therefore I can't select it...

What a laugh. I actually did get >Start Speaking to highlight, but after I selected it the system voice read the entire thread -

Copyright included. Sadly, it didn't help the app at all.
