How to import iPhone contact birthdays into Daymark

Choose a birthday from Contacts

Check that the contact record has the correct month and day. Do not invent a birth year. Permission and your remaining active allowance apply.

1. Open Settings, choose Import dates, then Birthdays.
2. Use the system's Contacts access controls if requested.
3. Choose the relevant entry in Import Birthdays.
4. Check the supplied birthday details before importing.
5. Open the created mark and inspect the next occurrence.
6. Set a preparation reminder and check February 29 explicitly when relevant.

Separate birthday from celebration

The birthday is a yearly date. A party on a nearby weekend is a different one-time event. Keep the original contact date stable, and use a separate countdown if the celebration needs its own time, venue or checklist.

Check missing and February 29 birthdays

Review February 29 explicitly in a non-leap year. Keep names and photos out of public cards unless you intend to share them. If a contact has no birthday saved, update it through your own contact record before expecting a correct import.

If a contact is not offered

Check whether that contact has a birthday saved in the Contacts app and is available through the granted access. A name alone supplies no birthday. Correct the source record first. Import only the people whose dates you want to keep visible.
