Reminder · now
🎂 Dad’s birthday is tomorrow
He turns 65. Send a wish?
Card sent to Alice 🎈
Turning 30 today
The problem
It’s 11:48 pm. You just remembered it was today.
Forgetting isn’t about not caring. Nobody can hold fifty dates in their head, and your phone’s calendar only speaks up when it’s already the day.
The date was on your old phone.
Or in your head, next to forty other dates you promised to remember.
“Happy belated birthday!” Again.
You cared. You just weren’t reminded in time to show it.

The whole idea,in one video.
From “I forgot” to “I was first to wish them”: how Birthdays reminds you early and hands you the card to send.
How it works
Set it up once. Be on time forever.
- 1
Add everyone in a minute
Import birthdays from your contacts in one tap, or type a name and a date. The year is optional.
- 2
Get reminded early
A nudge a week before, the day before and on the day, at the time you choose. It works with no internet.
- 3
Show up on time
Pick a ready-made wish, turn it into a card with their photo, and be the first to say it.
Reminders
Reminded before it’s too late.
A reminder on the day is too late to plan anything. Birthdays warns you 30, 14, 7, 3 or 1 day ahead, and again on the day itself.
- Your own time and sound, for everyone or per person
- Snooze, and a history of every reminder
- Scheduled on your phone, so they arrive offline
Calendar & countdowns
See who’s coming up.
Week, month and year views with a face on every date, and a live countdown for each person with the age they’re turning.
- Filter by Family, Friends or your own categories
- Pin a countdown to your home screen, or share it
- A home-screen widget for the next birthday
Cards
A card they’ll screenshot.
Type a wish and Birthdays turns it into a beautiful card with their name, age and photo. Share it to WhatsApp, Messages or anywhere else in two taps.
- Illustrated designs in several colours
- Share as an image, or save it to your gallery
- Never any ads on greetings or cards
Wishes
Never stuck on what to say.
A library of ready wishes for every kind of relationship. Copy one, tweak it and send it, or keep your own favourites.
- Romantic, family, friends, funny, professional and faith
- Heartfelt long messages and short one-liners
- Works for anniversaries and other occasions too
Not only birthdays: anniversaries, graduations, memorials, reunions and any date you choose.
Why Birthdays
Their dates are nobody else’s business.
A birthday app knows your family, your friends and their ages. So we built one that keeps all of it on your phone and never sends it to us.

Yes. Reminders, the calendar, countdowns, the wishes library, greeting cards, widgets and backups are all free. Birthdays Plus is a single, lifetime purchase that removes the small ads and unlocks every card, theme and advanced reminder. There is no subscription.
How do I add everyone quickly?
Tap Import from contacts, pick the people you want and their birthdays come in with their photos. You can also add someone by hand with just a name and a date. The year is optional, and duplicates are spotted and merged for you.
When will it remind me?
On the day, and 1, 3, 7, 14 or 30 days before, or any interval you like. You choose the time and the sound, for everyone or for one person, and you can snooze a reminder.
Do I need an account?
No. There is no sign-up and no Birthdays server. Everything you add lives on your phone, encrypted. Connecting Google Drive for backups is optional and only links Birthdays to your own Google account.
Does it work offline?
Completely. Reminders are scheduled on your phone, so they arrive with no internet at all.
Are my contacts uploaded anywhere?
No. Contacts are read on your phone only when you tap Import, and never leave it.
Be the one who remembers.
Add your people in a minute and never send a belated wish again. Free on Android today, coming soon to iPhone.
