Office 365 Outlook Task Categories Disappearing

Split from this thread.

I'm having the same issue over the last few days.  Randomly some task categories disappear, but not all. 

I checked my Outlook client and there are no COM Add-ins to disable.  

I do have my Office 365 Outlook tasks go to my iPhone, however I don't do anything with them there.  I did disable the "reminders" in the iPhone Exchange sync, just to take it out of the equation.

    I agree, it only seems to be the iPhone.  I have reminders sync on my iPad and my MacBook with no problems - but when I switch it back on with the iPhone, categories disappear at 9:00 the next day for anything due on that day.  And to pick up on some earlier posts asking if Microsoft have acknowledged the issue, I really think this is an Apple problem (specifically with iPhone iOS 13 onwards) not a Microsoft problem, but I can't see anywhere in the Apple community where it is being discussed.  I raised a feedback item with Apple months ago but without any response.  With every iOS update I switch reminders sync back on with the hope that the problem has been fixed, but no luck so far...

    Just for what it's worth - I have now turned reminders back on on my iPad and no problem yet.  So it seems like this problem is restricted to iPhone.

    I am having this issue as well. Just turned off (& deleted from

    iPhone) Reminders sync from Exchange account. Has anyone from Microsoft acknowledged this issue and if they are working on it? Seems to be counterproductive to not be able to access tasks via mobile device. Really disappointing, especially for those of is who “Took [Our] Life Back” through their course and try to work solely from calendar/tasks as much as we can.
