Default reminders list on Apple Watch (watchOS 6.2.8) differs from default list on iPhone (iOS 13.6)

Default reminders list on Apple Watch (Series 3 on watchOS 6.2.8) differs from default list on iPhone (iOS 13.6). I have my iPhone XS set to add reminders to my “Reminders” list but Siri on my Watch keeps adding them to my “Yard” list.

Confirmed the default on the phone. Rebooted watch. Tried to add to the “Reminders” list using Siri on the watch. Default still shows as “Yard”.

Any ideas? Just me?

Hi Gavin Saldanha,

We understand that your reminders are getting added to another list when using Siri with your Apple Watch, and we'd like to help.

Just to clarify, does this issue only happen when you use Siri to add a reminder? For example, if you create a reminder directly in the Reminders app, does that work as expected?

If you view the order if your lists, is the "Reminders" list the first one listed in the order? More about viewing and changing the order of lists under the "Change the order of your lists" part of the following page:

Set and respond to reminders on Apple Watch

Thanks!
