Add birthdays to contacts on iPhone

Some people have trouble remembering the birthdays of friends, colleagues and family members. Fortunately, your iPhone can remember birthdays for you; just enter the information in the Contacts app. Here’s how to do it.

First, open ‘Contacts̵

7;. If you can’t find it, open the “Phone” app (the green phone receiver icon you use to make a call) and then tap the “Contacts” button in the toolbar at the bottom of the screen.

Once “Contacts” opens, scroll through the list and select the entry for the person whose birthday you want to document. Once the person’s contact card is open, tap the “Edit” button in the top right corner of the screen.

Now you are in edit mode. Here you can add new information to your contact. Scroll down the page and tap ‘add birthday’.

An interface for selecting dates will appear. Use the beautiful scroll wheels to enter the person’s date of birth. Entering the year is optional.

Then tap “Done” and you will see the full contact with the stated date of birth.

To add more birthdays, tap “Contacts” in the top left corner of the screen to return to the contacts list. Then tap an item you want and repeat the steps above. Happy Birthday!
