Use reminders from your Internet accounts on Mac
If you keep your reminders in internet accounts — for example, iCloud, Exchange, Yahoo or AOL — you can use those accounts in Reminders on your Mac and access all your reminders in one place. Set up your iOS and iPadOS devices to use the same account, so that your reminders stay up to date across all your devices.
If you use only one account with the Reminders app on Mac, the title of the account in the sidebar is “My Lists”. If you use multiple accounts, the title of each account is the provider name (for example, iCloud or Yahoo) or the description in the account details.
Note: All Reminders features described in this guide are available when using updated iCloud reminders. Some features aren’t available when using accounts from other providers.
Add your iCloud reminders
On your Mac, choose Apple menu
If you don’t see your name, click “Sign in with your Apple ID” to enter your Apple ID or to create one.
Click iCloud on the right.
Below Apps Using iCloud, click Show All, then turn on Reminders. (You may need to scroll down.)
Click Done.
In the Reminders app
on your Mac, click Update Reminders (if available).
Add other reminder accounts
Use this method to add a reminder account from other providers that offer reminders, such as Yahoo.
On your Mac, choose Apple menu
in the sidebar. (You may need to scroll down.)In the list of accounts on the right, click the account you want to use.
If you haven’t already added the account you want to use, click Add Account, click the account provider, then follow the onscreen instructions.
Turn on Reminders.
If you don’t see Reminders in the list, the provider doesn’t offer a reminders feature.
Stop using an account for Reminders
You can stop using an account so that its reminder lists and reminders no longer appear in Reminders on your Mac.
On your Mac, choose Apple menu
In the list of accounts on the right, click the account you want to stop using.
Turn off Reminders.
To use the account again with Reminders, turn on Reminders. The account’s reminder lists and reminders reappear.
You can view, add and modify reminders in the Reminders app on all your Apple devices that use the same accounts. You can also view, add and modify your iCloud reminders on iCloud.com. Changes you make show up everywhere, so you always have your most current reminders at hand. Reminder notifications also appear on your Mac and other devices that use the same accounts.
If you use Handoff, you can switch between your Mac and other devices while viewing reminders. To open a reminder list handed off to your Mac, click the Handoff Reminders icon that appears in the Dock.
