| Jan 20, 2016 at 13:37 | comment | added | MrWhite | @Izzy Well, I assume I must have dismissed it at the time (Apr 05 2015). It certainly hasn't appeared on the calendar at all until suddenly showing up on Jan 19th! The period between Apr 05 and Jan 19 (289 days) isn't a nice round number of months/weeks and it's a different day of the week (Sun / Tues) so I couldn't say what the recurring frequency was?! But it wasn't even appearing on the "Upcoming" reminders within the Google app. Weird. | |
| Jan 20, 2016 at 12:43 | comment | added | Izzy | I wonder if one has to explicitly acknowledge/dismiss reminders to have them "marked off". While that would explain why it's listed for "today", it wouldn't explain why the same wasn't the case yesterday (or rather "everyday since"). So did you miss to mention that, or did it really only come up on Jan 19th? Apart from that: Yes, please move your "update" to an answer. Even though it does not explain the "why" part, it explains how to get rid of that reminder, and thus provides a solution (even though it might be a temporary one). | |
| Jan 20, 2016 at 12:14 | comment | added | MrWhite | @Izzy Yes, I had wondered that! lol. Yes, the colour suggested that it belonged to the "Reminders" calendar under my main Google account. I have discovered that this reminder originated from "Google Now", although as to why it suddenly recurred and appeared only in the Google Calendar Android app is a bit of a mystery. (I've updated my question, although maybe I should add that as an answer...) | |

Update with information on where this "Easter Sunday" originated from
