## What is Birthday Reminder & Countdowns?

Never miss a birthday, anniversary, or important date again.

Birthday Countdown Reminder helps you track upcoming birthdays, see countdowns at a glance, and get reminders before the big day. Import from Contacts, organize special dates, save gift ideas, and keep everything in one place.

COUNTDOWN WIDGETS
Add widgets to your Home Screen, Lock Screen, and StandBy to see who is coming up next and how many days are left.

SMART REMINDERS
Set alerts for the day itself or in advance. Add multiple reminders for the same person and choose the time that works for you.

TRACK MORE THAN BIRTHDAYS
Store birthdays, anniversaries, and custom events in one app so every important date is easy to find.

IMPORT FROM CONTACTS
Quickly import birthdays from your contacts instead of entering everything by hand.

CONTACT PRIVACY
You choose which contacts to import. Imported birthdays stay on your device unless you enable Pro iCloud Sync, which uses your private Apple account. Pocket Grove does not upload or store contacts on its servers.

GIFT IDEAS
Keep a simple gift list for each person and mark items when you have bought them.

MESSAGE TEMPLATES
Send birthday wishes faster with built-in message templates for different tones and relationships.

CALENDAR EXPORT
Add events to Apple Calendar or export your list as .ics and CSV when you need a backup.
