Changing a Reminder using Siri
I am able to set a reminder with Siri, but if I want to change it, Siri says “I don’t see an app for that. You’ll have to download one”. But I do have the Reminders app on my phone, so what’s the problem?

BethDRSRDP,
Thanks for the update. If you have the Reminders app installed on your device, that is all that's needed and Siri should be able to set up a new reminder for you when requested: Use Reminders on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
-What steps did you take to delete that third-party app? Do you still see it listed under Settings > General > iPhone storage?
-If you open the Reminders app directly, are you able to successfully set up a new reminder and have it alert?
-Do you have an Apple Watch paired with your iPhone? If so, are you able to use Siri from your watch to set up a reminder without issue?
-Does Siri fail to set a new reminder when you use "Hey Siri" in your command only? Or, does it also fail when you press the Side button for Siri?
-What specific command are you using with Siri when it fails, and are you able to use Siri for all other requests without issue?
Head over to Settings > General > Software Update. Do you have any pending updates you can perform? If so, consider updating your iOS and check for resolution afterwards: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. Be sure to backup to iCloud or your computer before updating.
Cheers.
