Never forget a birthday again!
Did you know your Contacts app can store a lot of information about the people you keep in touch with? You probably had your contacts copied from an old phone or an email account – but you can edit these contacts to add new information or remove old data, too.
- On your iPhone (or iPad), open the Contacts app.
- Search for or scroll and tap on the Contact you want to update
- Tap Edit in the top right corner of the contact
- Scroll down to enter that contact’s birthday, relations, even a nick-name if you’d like to see that instead of their name.
- Birthdays added to your Contacts will show up in your Calendar app. You’ll also get reminders on your lock screen when a birthday is coming up!
