Birthday reminder app?

We have a list of birthdays pinned up on the back of our ensuite door! We appear to have the best part of 50 birthdays to remember!

I have all family birthdays in the calendar on my phone I set the reminders for a few days before giving myself time to send cards or buy presents.

I put all birthdays on our joint Google Calender.

We use a joint Google calendar too and have it set up to remind us of birthdays a week before.

Agree with others; Google or IPhone calendar and set reminders. For out of town family, I set a reminder 1 week in advance in order to send a card.

My dear hubby spends some time with a new calendar we hang on the side of the fridge. He puts in everyone's BDday.
No excuses here!

As I have added contacts to my mobile phone, I've taken advantage of the additional fields available to include birthdays and anniversaries (including year of birth or wedding for anniversaries) . These are linked to my email provider and my shared calendar. My calendar is 'synced' over all my and DH's phones, computers, tablets etc. - no chance of missing any special dates, especially with notifications set up to remind us a week before.

I know that technology isn't for everyone but if you use a smartphone, it's worth taking advantage of some of facilities on offer.
