## What is Birthday Butler?

BirthdayButler - never forget a birthday again

BirthdayButler turns your address book into a clear timeline: birthdays, anniversaries and name days in chronological order, grouped by month, with today always in view.

The app reads the contacts you already have. Nothing to set up, nothing to import, no account to create.

Features

- Automatic timeline built from your contacts, grouped by month
- More than birthdays: weddings, work anniversaries, name days and memorials are recognized and marked with their own symbols
- Four quick actions per contact: message, call, email, and the postal address for a card
- Daily reminder at a time you choose, only on days that have something coming up
- App icon badge for the days ahead, with a range you set
- Search across all your contacts
- Show earlier dates whenever you want to look back
- Universal app for iPhone, iPad and Mac

Accessibility

The list follows your system text size all the way up to the accessibility sizes, works with VoiceOver, and supports Increase Contrast and Dark Mode. Colors are chosen to stay distinguishable with red-green color blindness: today and tomorrow are told apart by shape, not by color alone.

Privacy

BirthdayButler works entirely on your device. It has no server connection, collects nothing and sends nothing. Your contacts stay where they are.

Download BirthdayButler and never miss a special day again.
