Reminders App: Set time for reminders keeps disappearing

Hello,


in the reminders app, whenever I assign a a date and time to a task, the time 'turns off'/'blanks out'/'resets' as though I didn't set a time for the task.


I am on IOS 15.3.1. I have turned on and off reminders in iCloud, I have deleted and reinstalled the app, I have restarted my phone.


Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 15

I solved my own issue, here’s how:


first I deleted the reminders app from my iPhone. Then I opened systems preferences on my MAC and in my accounts unselected and selected reminders for my iCloud and yahoo accounts (check all of you internet accounts to see where you may be using ‘reminders’).


after that I downloaded reminders on my phone again. Once downloaded I went into settings, iCloud, on my phone and unselected and selected reminders.


after doing this I created a ‘test’ reminder on my Mac and it worked across my devices. I then tried the same on my phone and it finally worked.


my best assumption is that there was something ‘hung up’ / ‘not synced’ between the settings across reminders on my devices and that was causing a conflict. This is not scientific conclusion by any means.
