## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Сразу стоит Английский язык

*2026-07-23, version 1.4.33*

В настройках не нашла как поменять с Английского на Русский язык

### 1/5 — Lost everything

*2026-05-16, version 1.4.33*

I have a new phone, reloaded the app and nothing is there.  There is no one to reach out to, no cs #.  Starting all over again, but not with this app.

### 1/5 — What special features?

*2026-02-09, version 1.4.33*

I liked the look of this app and so I paid to get rid of adds and get “extra features” once I paid, the only new feature I found was a decrease in my bank account. Essentially, you pay for nothing! (Gets rid of ads though, but NO “extra features”)

The app is missing what I would consider core features too, no dark mode so if you’re checking a birthday out in the evening -your eyes get instantly vaporised by the intense bright white background. 

Then there’s the lack of any kind of cloud backup/sync meaning if you change phone or you need to reset your phone your birthday details and birthdays will vanish faster than the Epstein files.  Finally certain settings (of the very few you do get) don’t work globally, (You have an option to show year next to birthday date, but you have to manually set each one)

### 1/5 — Reminders

*2024-05-06, version 1.4.24*

This app is good but one thing is wrong with it. I still have the reminder on the application 3 days after the birthday. 
Why does it not go away.

### 1/5 — There is no Sagittarius in the app!!

*2022-10-01, version 1.4.1*

Plz change it my birthday 4 December and they don’t show it they show Capricorn!!!

### 1/5 — Reminder notice

*2022-09-07*

I purchased this app and at first it worked great. After a few months, it stopped sending me notifications.

### 2/5 — Inaccurate birthdays!

*2024-10-09, version 1.4.28*

Changed all birthdays to a day earlier for some reason

### 3/5 — Можно на русском?

*2024-07-02, version 1.4.26*

Не поняла, в какое время мне будет напоминать? Не увидела в приложении установку Напоминания по определённому времени. Видимо, придётся другое приложение устанавливать.

### 4/5 — Вот был бы ещё виджет…

*2023-07-11, version 1.4.14*

Всё прекрасно: все контакты подгружаются, дизайн шикарный, всё работает как часы. Но нет виджета… А для меня это важно.

### 4/5 — Sure

*2022-09-18, version 1.4.0*

It is definitely one of the apps to exist…

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-04-18, version 1.4.33*

Always punctual with my birthdays 🍰 🎂🎈🎁🎉👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

### 5/5 — Birthday countdown & Remminders

*2025-08-11, version 1.4.32*

At first I thought this birthday reminder was all fake but as I use it, it helps me to remember everyone’s birthdays

### 5/5 — Sg

*2024-09-17, version 1.4.28*

Good wee app but would like to see a different background
 Setting, ie dark mode etc. I would like to see the years  beside years counter beside the countdown on both birthdays and anniversaries. Other than that for the price you pay you can’t beat it.

### 5/5 — Good

*2024-04-27, version 1.4.24*

It’s a fun reminder love it

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-12-28, version 1.4.21*

Love the app, so I paid for the full version to “unlock special features and remove ads”. The ads are gone (they weren’t really in the way) but I can’t find any additional features, so all must be included in the free version. Which is great news if you’re on the free version. Terrible news if you’ve just paid for nothing.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2023-11-13, version 1.4.20*

I love everything about the app. I’d have unlocked the paid version if it supported multi device sync via an account or iCloud.

### 5/5 — Handy!

*2023-06-14, version 1.4.13*

It’s a good app and a way for this grandmother to keep up with family birthdays. However, the astrological sign was incorrect for Scorpio/Sagittarius.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2022-10-22*

It’s exactly what I needed, tracks birthdays and anniversaries with a countdown next to every event. Minor gripe… would be nice to be able to change timezone for us in the southern hemisphere so it would display the right seasons! that doesn’t change the functionality of the app however, so it’s not a big issue!

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2021-02-14, version 1.0*

Finally, the app that doesn’t ask you to pay every month to add all your birthdays. Kudos!!
