Birthdays

What this module is for​

Birthdays keeps recurring personal dates visible without asking the household to rebuild them manually every year. It is a focused module for remembering people, ages and reminders, while still fitting into the wider shared calendar flow.

What people usually do here​

  • Add birthdays for family, friends and other important contacts.
  • Review upcoming birthdays and current ages.
  • Set reminders ahead of time for gifts, calls or event planning.
  • Import birthdays selectively from contact data instead of entering everything by hand.

How it connects to other modules​

  • Calendar can receive automatic birthday events.
  • Contacts can supply contact data that includes birthdays.
  • Family helps keep core household member data aligned.

Good to know​

  • This module is intentionally narrower than Calendar, so it stays good at one recurring job instead of becoming a second event editor.
  • Automatic event creation reduces yearly maintenance effort.
  • Selective import matters because not every synced contact should necessarily create a visible birthday inside the household calendar.
