Birthday Calendar is a free app that reminds you of your Friends upcoming birthdays. If your like me then this app is like a revelation. It’s Easy to use, has a smooth, good looking interface, it integrates with your Facebook account to get all your friends Birthdays in one click and the apps icon looks delicious! what more can you ask for!
Update: (July 17, 2013) The app is no longer available in Google Play Store. Check out Birthday Scheduler instead.
Well you could ask for manual addition of your friends. This app only tells you the birthdays of you ‘Facebook buddies’, giving your anti-social network friends the cold shoulder. Well not all’s lost as I don’t think I have a friend who’s not on Facebook, hell my great grandmas on Facebook! Other then that the apps Interface is great. It notifies you of your friends birthdays through push notification before his/her birthday so you can send him/her a birthday message or a custom E-Birthday Card (yes it has E-Birthday Cards!) which they will receive as soon as the clock hits 12 and they lose another year of there life making your Greeting the first they get without you having to stalk their Facebook wall in the middle of the night, I mean how cool is that! It also gives you a list of your friends birthdays in one place telling you who’s birthday is about to come and how old they would turn. There’s even a little countdown clock which shows you how many days are left in a friend’s birthday so you can give the lad/lass (I was getting tired of ‘him/her’) a Surprise!
What I like about it
- Easy to use
- Push notification Birthday alerts
- E-Birthday Cards
- Advance Birthday Greeting (makes your life a tad bit easier)
- Great Interface.
What I don’t like about it
- The inability to add birthdays manually
- In my last few tests it crashed a few times (not saying it crashes a lot)
Conclusion
Get the App and then forget the fact that you ever needed to remember Birthdays. If you want a more Integratable experience then Birthday Calendar then go for ‘Birthdays – Free’. It’s the best Birthday app out there but mind you the interface isn’t as ‘easy-pezy’ as on Birthday Calendar.
