A list only helps if it's
complete and up to date
Most people's birthdays are already scattered across contacts, old texts, and social media — not written down anywhere useful. A real birthday tracker should pull those dates together automatically, not ask you to retype them one by one, and it should do something with that list once you have it.
Everything a birthday tracker app should do
Import the dates you already have, keep them in one sorted list, and get reminded before each one arrives.
One list, always sorted
One organized, always-sorted list
Every birthday, anniversary, pet, and custom event lives in a single list, automatically sorted so the nearest date is always on top.
- Works for birthdays, anniversaries, pets, and custom events
- Automatic sorting by nearest date
- A persistent in-app feed keeps a running history of who's coming up
One glance away
A widget for your tracked list
Keep the next three birthdays one glance away, right on your home screen.
- Name, date, and days remaining at a glance
- Updates on its own as days pass
- Tap a name to jump straight to their profile
Act on the day
From list to greeting, in one tap
When a tracked birthday arrives, the reminder opens your messaging app with a friendly, editable message ready to send.
- Pre-filled template: “Happy birthday, [Name]! 🎉”
- You always review and send it yourself — never auto-sent
- Mark as done or snooze right from the reminder

Tracks the countdown and reminds you before it matters
Birthday Reminder doesn't just list dates — it tracks the days remaining for each person and reminds you ahead of time, on the channel you choose.
- Push, email, SMS/WhatsApp, or an in-app feed
- Multiple lead times per person (7 days before, on the day, or both)
- Reminders fire at your local time, and re-anchor automatically when you travel
Gift notes attached to each name
Keep a running list of gift ideas, sizes, and preferences tied to each person on your list, private to you.
Share your list with family
Invite family members to the same tracked list, so it stays complete without depending on one person.

Frequently asked questions
How a birthday tracker builds your list, where it finds the dates, and what else it keeps track of.
What is a birthday tracker app?
A birthday tracker app keeps a running list of everyone's birthdays, tracks how many days remain until each one, and reminds you before the date arrives, instead of relying on memory or a scattered set of notes.
Is there an app to find and keep track of my contacts' birthdays?
Yes. Birthday Reminder lets you import birthdays directly from your phone contacts or a spreadsheet, then keeps that list organized and reminds you before each date.
What is a birthday list app used for?
A birthday list app organizes birthdays, anniversaries, and other important dates into a single sorted list, often alongside gift ideas, so you always know who's coming up next.
How can I locate someone's birthday if I don't already know it?
Birthday Reminder can import birthdays already stored in your phone's contacts, which is the most reliable way to fill in dates you don't have memorized. You can also add anyone manually with just a name and date.
Does a birthday tracker app work for anniversaries and pets too?
Yes. Birthday Reminder tracks birthdays, anniversaries, pets, and any custom event, each with its own independent reminders.
Can I keep gift ideas alongside my birthday list?
Yes. You can attach gift notes — ideas, sizes, and preferences — to each person on your list, kept private to your account.
Is Birthday Reminder free to use as a birthday tracker?
Yes. It's free on web, iOS, and Android, with no ads and no paid tier.
