Question 1

Is Birthdays really private?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Your birthday data stays on your device and, if you turn it on, your own private iCloud. There is no account to create, no ads, no tracking, and nothing is sent to any server we control.

Question 2

Is it a one-time purchase or a subscription?

Accepted Answer

A one-time purchase of £2.99. Pay once and use it forever, including every future update. There is no subscription, ever.

Question 3

Which iPhones and iOS versions are supported?

Accepted Answer

Birthdays requires iOS 18 or later. It runs on any iPhone that supports iOS 18.

Question 4

Can I import birthdays I already have?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can pull birthdays straight from your iOS Calendar. You review everything before importing — nothing is added silently.

Question 5

How do reminders work?

Accepted Answer

You get a gentle notification on the day, or 1, 3, or 7 days before. Timing can be overridden per person so it always fits the relationship.

Question 6

Does it show zodiac signs and ages?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Each birthday automatically shows the western zodiac sign and the exact age the person is turning, with space for gift ideas.

Question 7

Does it work without internet?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Birthdays works fully offline. Optional iCloud sync just keeps your data consistent across your own devices when you enable it.

Question 8

When is it available and how do refunds work?

Accepted Answer

Birthdays is coming soon to the App Store. Once live, purchases and any refunds are handled by Apple through your App Store account.
