Reminders in Monterey works differently to iOS

There are certain actions that are unavailable in Reminders for Monterey (iMac) than with Reminders iOS. For example, in Monterey I cannot move a Reminder to another list. Why is this? Is there a plan to make them work the same way?

Because iOS and macOS are two different operating systems. Only Apple would know what if any changes are planned.

Thank you very much for the quick response and I appreciate it.

I know that they are different o/s but was hoping that the 2 development teams would have worked to keep them, if not exactly the same, very similar. Moving a reminder from one list to another seems a quite basic requirement. If I need to do it, which I do occasionally, I have to do it on my iPhone before returning to the desktop.

It's not a big issue just a little annoying.

Any thank you.
