Well, i'll tell you 3 main reasons:
◾ It can help you to remember every birthday in the moment you prefer!
◾ It will cost just a few MB of storage!
◾ It's beautiful, full of animations and simple to use!
Birday allows you to import the birthdays directly from your contacts app, with a simple favorite system and a set of stats to discover!
if you're starting to develop apps and you need an app to look at, to find some inspiration and tricks: click on the Github link, and the Birday source code is served!
Features 🎂
◾ Simple birthday timeline (with removable images), containing the next date and the name of each person
◾ Favorite system, to aggregate your favorite events and see more information, plus an handy note field
◾ Birthday from contacts import! Intelligent duplicate detection
◾ Easily delete, share or edit every birthday
◾ Customizable notification the day of the event!
◾ Light and dark themes (Android 10 automatic dark mode supported)
◾ Selectable accent
◾ A quick search bar!
◾ Disable vibration and many more useful options!
◾ First introduction and beautiful animations
◾ Minimal widget with dark or light theme
◾ Simple and precise ui, following the material guidelines
Please note: the notification system relies on the Android OS resources, thus some manufacturers may cause malfunctions. The reason is that some Xiaomi, Huawei and Oneplus devices kill the apps instead of simply closing them, or block the automatic startup of the app process. I can't fix this, but you can find more information on dontkillmyapp dot com.
Notes 😏
The source code is available on Github. Make sure to star it if you use it and feel free to fork it! The link is in the app itself. 😉
The app is currently available in many languages but many more are missing. If you want to translate it to your language, send me an email. An help is always useful!
Every advice is well appreciated, same for the reviews. This app is completely free, open source and ad-free, remember it!
