I am trying to share reminders with my wifes phone, she uses an apple phone; however when sharing a remibder from my reminder app, they are not shared. Is there something I can do to fix this?

@tlb213 I believe that this only works between Samsung users.

How about using an app that works on both systems, like Google Keep?
You have to figure out which email address(es) to use.

Tbh, some apps on android devices are simply superfluous and therefore redundant. Like "Reminders" for example while being one more function to maintain input for its purpose. If one really wanted to save time, the default Google calendar can be used for reminders with the calendar able to be shared with another user and updated between the two users concerned. But if one really needs one separate from that, than 'Google Keep' (as already noted by @Axl_)or 'Microsoft To Do' will work just fine.

@Tom6068 Completely disagree that Reminders is somehow redundant. I've used it everyday for years. Trying to setup a daily reminder in Google calendar is much more complicated and adds unwanted notifications. Samsung Reminders is extremely useful for it's dedicated purpose.

And that is very subjective. I use calendar for all those functions, like Drs aptts, shopping outing, refills, social interactions with people/family, etc with many able to use directions and addresses. And I do not get flooded. If only using one app is overload, then how is using two or more to get multiple tasks and reminders under criteria not adding notifications, that pops up and works as reminders or info?

In the end I only gave my thoughts (without providing my interactions before). I just find it far easier for me. Others may find it differently.

For appointments, I use a calendar app.
For reminders, like "change the batteries in smoke detectors" or "take medicine at 4 pm," I use the Reminders app. Completely different uses.
