Interacting with Reminder notifications in the iOS lock screen (iOS 16)

I've just recently let iOS 16 install on my iPhone SE 2020. I'm coming directly from 14.


Previously, I could interact with Reminder notifications in the lock screen. (E.g. Mark as Complete; Remind Me in an Hour; Remind Me Tomorrow; etc.)


With iOS 16 I'm not seeing these options now. When I swipe left on the Notification it prompts for my fingerprint (not a bad addition IMO) but then I see, I believe Cancel and Options. And Options takes me into Settings.


How do I access useful Reminder options of "Mark Complete", "Remind Me Tomorrow", etc from the Lock Screen Notification?


Frustrating changes like this are -exactly- why I resisted moving from iOS 14 for so long.

iPhone SE, iOS 16

Long-press the notification to see the contextual menu that offers you, among other things, to mark a task as complete.
