Everything Birthday Radar does

A birthday app should do three things well: tell you early, help you say something, and keep your people private. Here's how Birthday Radar does each one.

Alerts that arrive early

A reminder on the day, plus heads-ups 1, 3, or 7 days before.

Most birthday reminders arrive the morning of — too late to post a card or order a gift. Birthday Radar lets you add heads-ups one, three, or seven days early, at the time of day you choose.

Alerts name the occasion and the age, so you see “Sarah turns 30 in 3 days” instead of a generic nudge.

A greeting in two taps

55 ready-to-send messages for birthdays and beyond.

Tap Send a greeting on the home screen or straight from the alert, pick a tone — short and sweet, close friends, family, partner, work-safe, funny, belated, or milestone — and send it from Messages or any app you like.

Beyond birthdays, the library covers anniversaries, weddings, and sympathy, and none of it costs extra or carries a watermark.

Every occasion, not just birthdays

Anniversaries, weddings, graduations, memorials, and your own.

Add any dated occasion to a person's card. Each one gets its own countdown, alerts, and gift list.

Occasions appear everywhere birthdays do — on your radar, in the year calendar, and in your alerts.

Milestones, spotlighted

Big ages and round anniversaries get the big treatment.

18, 21, 30, 40, 50 and beyond, plus anniversaries ending in 0 or 5, are called out on the person's card, the home screen, and in alerts.

You'll know a milestone is coming well before the party invitation does.

Gift ideas that go somewhere

Track each idea from idea to bought to given.

Jot gift ideas the moment you hear them, then move each one along: idea, bought, given.

If you've bought something but haven't given it yet, Birthday Radar reminds you as the day gets close.

A person's card showing their birthday, a 25th wedding anniversary, gift ideas with statuses, and notes.

Notes that help you shop

Sizes, likes, dislikes, and context — all on their card.

Quick-fill fields for clothing and shoe sizes, likes, dislikes, and anything else worth remembering turn notes into a shopping list you can trust.

Import in minutes

Bring birthdays in from Contacts or your calendar.

Import birthdays and anniversaries saved in Contacts, or scan your calendars for yearly birthday events that were never tied to a contact.

You review every entry before it's saved, and duplicates are flagged instead of added twice.

The whole year at a glance

A calendar view of every birthday and occasion.

See every month at once, spot the busy weeks ahead of time, and tap any day to open the people celebrating.

A year-at-a-glance calendar with every birthday marked by month.

Private by design

No account, no server, no analytics.

Names, dates, photos, notes, and gift ideas are stored only on your device. There's nothing to sign up for and nothing to sync.

Try it free with up to 10 people.
