What if I want the Reminders app to default open to a different list on the Apple Watch AND iPhone?

It always opens to Today, which is not what I want it to do. Any way to tweak that?

I have this exact same question. When in the store I check items off my shopping list. When I open reminders on my watch, I’d like to have it “open to” my “shopping” list. On my phone, I’d like it to “open to” my “Today” list.


So, setting “default” list to “open to” is the question, and NOT “default” list to “add to”.
