Support information:
Q: Is this a safe app?
A: This app views iOS contact data and saves a birthdaycard to photos. Data is not shared. It uses hardened runtime, along with app sandbox (protection to system resources and user data), firewall, secure enclave, family sharing and gatekeeper. The app uses a widget to inform about birthdays, it doesnt use local notifications.
Q: Why are some contacts grey when importing contacts or wont get imported?
A: These contacts do not have a birthday added or their birthdays do not include a year, only day and month, add the year using contacts or add the person manually.
Q: Is it environmental friendly?
A: The system may put the app to sleep.
Q: Birthday persons are not synchronised between devices or not synchronised timely?
A: The solution is to close and open the app (iOS, iPadOS) to initiate the synchronisation or wait.
Q: Not all birthdays are saved when importing?
A: There is a limitation to the maximum number of unique keys that can be synchronised, hundreds of birthdays can be stored depending on specific configurations, but not thousands.
Q: The magnetometer provides incorrect readings?
A: When restarting the app it will be recalibrated.
Q: How to select multiple persons on macOS?
A: Hold the ⌘ key and select them.
Q: Some added contacts disappeared?
A: The local database is synchronized with your personal iCloud Drive if space is available, not generic cloud storage for data security. Informative messages were added when the drive is not available. If the synchronization doesnt work correct for you please switch it off (stateful), using menu item: synchronisation.
