User level: Level 1 (13 points)My Reminder app “Urgent” alrarm feature doesn’t work anymore since ios 27. The “Urgent” feature cannot even be enabled on the editing screen.
The bug is not fixed yet even after my phone has been updating to ios 27.2 beta 3.

he Urgent alarm feature in Apple Reminders works only with reminders stored in iCloud or the On My iPhone account.
If you use other accounts, such as Yahoo, Outlook, or other third-party email services, your reminders stored under those accounts will not support the Urgent alarm feature.
To use this feature, ensure that your reminder is saved under either iCloud or On My iPhone, rather than under a third-party account.
Note: The Urgent option is designed to make important reminders more noticeable by triggering an alarm. However, its availability depends on the account where the reminder is stored.
