Katekismen vs Name Days Norway & Calendar

Den katolske kirkes katekisme, med referanser og fotnoter til Bibelen, kirkefedrene og kirkelige dokumenter.

In Norway, most first names have their own day in the almanac, and many people get congratulations on it, birthday or not. This app is that name day calendar in your pocket. The whole calendar ships with the app: 961 names across 363 days, with only New Year's Day, Christmas Day and the leap day left out. Today's names are on top, the rest of the year scrolls below, and search finds any name with a countdown to its day. TODAY AND THE YEAR AHEAD Open the app and today's names greet you first. Below them the whole year rolls on, day by day, so you always know who is next. Jump to any month from the top bar, and tap a name to read about it on Wikipedia. YOUR CONTACTS The app can match your contacts against the calendar and list when each of them celebrates, soonest first, with their picture from your address book. Anyone celebrating today sits highlighted at the top. Matching happens on first names, middle names and nicknames, entirely on your phone. REMINDERS AND GREETINGS Turn on reminders and a notification arrives at nine in the morning when a contact has their name day. When someone celebrates today, one tap opens a text message with the greeting already written, ready for you to edit and send.
