Hi,
I've created grocery list and share it with my family and until now it works fine, but we want to group it somehow, that's why we want to use tags and create smart lists for tags (depending on tag: fruits, vegetables, chemistry, etc.). But it looks like tags are not syncing between shared members. I see my tags on all my devices, but my tags are invisible to family members and I don't see others tags.
It's a bug or a feature?
iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 15
Hi andrzejfromspace,
We understand you have some questions about sharing tags in Reminders lists, and we're happy to help.
"If you create a tag on a device with iOS 15 or iPadOS 15 or later, it'll show up as a tag in Reminders on your other Apple devices using iOS 15, iPadOS 15, or macOS Monterey or later. If your other devices are using an older software version, you won't see the tag unless it's part of the reminder's title or note, where you'll see the tag as plain text.
When you share a tagged Reminder with someone who's using iOS 15, iPadOS 15, or macOS Monterey or later, they'll see the tagged word, but it won't be an actual tag until they convert it to a tag. If you try to share a tagged note with someone who's using an older software version, they won't see the tag at all unless it's in the reminder's title or note, where they'll see the tag as plain text."

Are you currently using iOS 15 or iPadOS 15 on all of the devices?
Please let us know what you find, and we'll take it from there.
Have a great day.

Same issue over here, tags don’t sync between shared lists. Both users have iPhone with iOS 15.1 installed.
Hi Amanda239_91,
thank you for the answer - at least I know that it should work but it didn’t.
All we’re using version 15 of system (iOS and iPadOS) and tags on shared reminders list are only visible for creators. If I on my device add a tag for list item, it’s invisible for everyone else (not even as a word), for example this is item on my device:
and the same item on my wife iPhone:
even when I enter into item details, there’s nowhere word “warzywa”.
Same issue here. I see the tags across my devices, but the person I'm sharing with doesn't see the tags on theirs. We're both on iOS 15
I've already do that at least twice, but any response.
They don't reply, but they should collate feedback. Problems that get more reports are, one hopes, more likely to get fixed.
