### 1/5 — Shows wrong dates

*2026-08-02*

The app shows all birthdays dates 1 day before it is supposed to be.

The app has only 1 purpose and fails badly.

### 1/5 — Longtime not updated

*2026-07-20, version 1.14*

This app not updating long time and not optimized for iOS 26 glass transparent theme

### 1/5 — Imported dates are a day off

*2026-04-05, version 1.14*

Issue has been going on for too long and this needs to be fixed.

### 1/5 — Dates are a day ahead

*2026-03-06, version 1.14*

Downloaded app and bought lifetime plan. All imported contact birthdays are a day ahead. Have reinstalled multiple times. FAQ says to update app but I have the most recent version downloaded (1.14). Emailed support about this issue, but might just have apple refund my money.

### 2/5 — Buggy

*2025-12-27, version 1.14*

It imported the birthdays but they were off by a day. The FAQ said to update the app, but there was no option to update. after I imported select contacts, I couldn’t see a way to import additional contacts, unless I deleted the app.

### 1/5 — I cant send templates.

*2025-12-04, version 1.14*

After the update, templates can't be sent as messages. I emailed them about this, but they haven't responded. Currently, I can only see birthdays in the app; I can't send congratulatory messages. If they fix this, I'll update my score.

### 2/5 — Troppi bug!!!

*2025-12-02, version 1.14*

Ho acquistato la versione completa ormai tempo fa, ma da quando ho aggiornato ad iOS 26 il widget non funziona con le icone Liquid Glass e non arrivano più le notifiche!
In pratica un’app inutile se non la si apre giorno per giorno per controllare i compleanni.
In più non sono riuscita a trovare un contatto per l’assistenza.
Spero risolviate quanto prima!

### 3/5 — It still changes the birthday day

*2025-09-26*

Some dates keeps changing automatically to one day before

### 5/5 — Klasse App

*2025-09-20, version 1.12*

Super App, einfach zu Bedienen und zeigt im Lockscreen-Wigdet die ausstehenden Geburtstage an, was für mich extrem hilfreich ist.  Erstklassiger Support, vor diesem Update funktionierte das Anzeigen der Geburtstage nicht mehr, bereits heute kam das Update und der Fehler ist behoben. Vielen Dank und weiter so!

### 2/5 — Widget Problem

*2025-09-19, version 1.11*

Whenever you add the app’s widget it does not show details. Blank icon is appearing. It should be fixed.
