Some issues

If you don’t know the year of birth for a person, the app will list them as 417 years old. Good for birthdays, (it is a birthday app), but not really good for other things like anniversaries or other events since it will show anything entered as turns (age) in x number of days. Picked this app because iPhone will allow it to be added as a widget on the screen. Nice feature.

Hi. The 417 year old display is a bug that will be fixed asap.

app is great

really helpful and i use it frequently. easy to navigate and clear. i only wish there were more colour settings because i don’t like the colour that is given.

Excellent Birthday App

An excellent App to keep track of birthdays and other special occasions. Very easy to use ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thank you for your great review!

Doesn’t work

Randomly stopped sending me notifications about birthdays and the notifications are still turned on in my settings. You literally have one job… 🙃

Years not updating

Love the look of your app but it does not update the age the person is turning for the next year for example some one born in 1950 the app is saying they will turn 71 in 2022 in which they will actually turn 72.

Hello. For some reason there is a bug with age displayed for users in New Zealand. Very random, but this will be fixed soon. Thank you for your patience.

Can’t Get the Widget to Work

I bought the Pro version of this app awhile back and I recently updated when I saw an update was available in the App Store a few days ago, but for some reason I still can’t get the widget to display any data on the home page of my iPad Pro. The widget itself shows up, but it’s empty. I can tap on it and the app opens and *then* I can see all my data for the day but I have to open the app to see any data. Nothing has *ever* shown up in my widget since I first downloaded the app. I tried to contact support through the App Store link but my email keeps giving me an error that the address listed in the App Store is invalid.

Hello. Please email me at sixstarapps@outlook.com and I will do my best to help you figure this out.

Disappointed

Used to live this app. Pay for no ads. Got new iPhone 12 months ago and the notifications stopped working properly. Emailed developer but after a few back & forth responses he seemed to not care about the problem anymore. My rating for this app goes from 5 stars to 1. Can’t rely on this app notifying me of a birthday anymore.

Excellent

Easy to use, does the job well. The ad free version is reasonably priced.

Thank you for taking the time to review the app. I appreciate it!

Great calendar app

I absolutely love this app. I find it far more helpful than using an old fashioned calendar. In addition to the app, the customer service is absolutely amazing. I had an issue that I was unable to figure out, and the customer service emailed with me at least 3 times to help me correct the issue. I definitely recommend this app.

Thank you for this glowing review, and happy to have been able to resolve your issue in a timely manner :)

Finally, I can ditch Facebook!

I’ve wanted to be able to completely quit Facebook for a while, but it was the only place where everyone’s birthday was saved. This app works seamlessly with your contacts, and displays everyone in order of upcoming birthdays.

I love the feature of being able to set exactly how far in advance you are given reminders too, so I’ve got plenty of time to get cards or presents.

I’d give this app 5 stars if it had the capabilities of adding other important dates, such as anniversaries. It doesn’t look like there’s a way of adding this without adding another person as a contact. But apart from that, it’s a very useful app which I’d recommend.
