I keep accidentally ticking reminders off as completed on my iPhone 14 Pro Max

I have the new IOS17 interactive widget on my Lock Screen . I keep accidentally ticking reminders off as completed by bumping them while handling the phone. Ani ideas on how to prevent this? Thanks

Me too. When I'm trying to access Reminders from the widget, tasks are accidentally get checked as done. Really poorly thought out by Apple.

I've had the same problem. To the point that I have removed the interactive reminders widget from the Home Screen entirely. It's way too easy to mark something completed with it.


I've sent feedback to Apple about it. At the very least, it there should be an option to require a long press to mark a task completed or something.


That's the only real negative thing I've run into with 17 so far.
