Calendar and Reminders imports help reuse existing dated information. Because source titles and recurrence rules may not describe birthdays perfectly, review every imported result.

Steps

  1. Open the ••• menu and choose Import.
  2. Choose Import From Calendar or Import From Reminders.
  3. Grant access when iOS requests it.
  4. Choose a calendar or reminder list, or keep the all-items option.
  5. For Reminders, leave Exclude Past Reminders on unless you need older items.
  6. Select the source items that truly represent birthdays. Use Select All to toggle every currently visible item.
  7. Check the count in the Import button, complete the import, and verify the new records.

Before you finish

  • An imported event is copied into diBirthday rather than continuously linked.
  • Recurring source items can produce unexpected dates if their rules are unusual.
  • A general calendar event is not automatically known to be a birthday.
  • Select All applies to the currently displayed or filtered list.

Tips

  • Avoid selecting unrelated anniversaries or appointments.
  • Check for duplicates before repeating an import.
  • Touch and hold a birthday in the main list if you need to batch-delete an accidental import.
