An open source app to remember birthdays and events without having to open Facebook, set alarms or rely on Google Calendar.

This is an open source app to remember birthdays and other events in a fast, light and beautiful way. No less, no more. I had this idea considering that Google Calendar doesn't display an automatic notification the day of the birthday, and sometimes i need to remember a birthday for a person who is not in my Contacts. Also, adding too much events to the calendar makes it messy and i prefer to manage them separately. The main focus of this app is being easy to use, clean and lightweight. I'm always glad to add features, but only important and really useful features!

• Notification the day of the event (with selectable time and optional grouping for multiple events in the same day)
• Additional notification up to 21 days before the event (multiple selections are possible)
• Import from contacts or calendar (import on first launch, auto import on each launch option, selectable on conflict strategy)
• Easily backup and restore your saved events!
• Experimental CSV and JSON import/export
• insert an event manually, just specifying a first name, an optional last name, an image and a date (with optional year)
• Choose your favorite events to see detailed information about them and a countdown for each one
• Tap on an event to see every possible detail and the available actions
• The birthdays are also automagically backed up in cloud by Google Play Services when the app is installed from Play Store
• A set of stats (zodiac, average age and much more) when more than 5 events are inserted
• Easily delete, modify and share the saved events!
• Each event has an handy note field
• Easily hide the top cards to display the list in fullscreen
• Main list organized by month or alphabetically
• Quick glance row, to visualize the events in the next 10 days
• Yearly overview screen (advanced mode available)
• A nice searchbar and an event type selector
• Quick apps launcher
• Light, dark, Amoled black and system default theme
• Full Material 3 / Monet support
• Selectable accent (no app restart needed, 12 choices)
• Shimmer effect (it can be disabled) and confetti, because why not
• Name first or surname first choice
• Notification only for favorite events
• Hide and show images
• Material 3 configurable widgets (minimal and complete)
• Beautiful animations (and animated notification icon, both can be disabled, but if you do it, be aware that I hate you)
• Multiwindow / freeform full support
• Animated splashscreen and app intro, dynamic layouts and more
• Small and optimized apk size
• 30+ locales supported and counting!

The app is available through Google Play and F-Droid

This app was written during my free time as a training. It was first published on May 1, 2020. Many good devs helped me understanding the best practices and they taught me a lot of useful tricks. A special thank to every contributor here and on Reddit. and God bless Stack Overflow.
