Contact birthdays appear on Calendar
Proton Contacts allows users to record the birthday for each contact. It would be great if these birthdays could automatically appear in Proton Calendar.

Google calendar does this. I always found it useful.

A nice thing but totally un important. You can manually put it in the calendar, if you want.

This is absolutely key, currently I'm still tied to Google calendar because of it

This should be an easier one to implement. Contacts is really lacking in Proton.

Agreed. This is a key feature, and shouldn't be too hard to implement.

Agree. This is a nice feature as I'm looking to make the switch to Proton from Google.

Adding my voice here. One of the only Google services I'm still using is Contacts, and not being able to show birthdays is part of that. Together with Android contacts integration of course.

Very importnt, or you PROTON guys risk to be seen as "tech-loving nerds" not willing to make a user-friendly product ;-)

The ability to create a birthday, as a special kind of event (just like in Google calendar) would be enough for me to subscribe to proton.
A calendar app where you are not able to create your parents birthdays, because years before 1970 are not selectable. Yikes.

I really appreciate the feature on my phone's contacts that automatically creates a calendar event when I add a birthday. I think this would be very handy and convenient if implemented into Proton's ecosystem!

Folks have been asking for this feature for nearly 5 years now!! Birthday reminders, how difficult could it be to implement? Maybe in another 5 years it will finally be added?

This will be a great feature that will mean I will switch from Google calendar to Proton.

This would be an amazing feature! I love the idea of adding someone’s birthday to a contact and having it show up in the calendar. One thing that really bothers me with birthdays, though, is being forced to include a year. Sometimes you don’t know the year, so it would be great if ProtonMail could stop requiring that for birthdays!

This is actually a great idea.

This is really important and detrimental for daily use. Without this I cannot use Proton Calendar as my main calendar. Please add this feature.

I have come across another restriction, you cannot add Anniversaries, Bereavements, or anything other than a Single Birthday.
I have had to extend my script that takes data from Google Contacts - where you can have many 'events' , and with custom names - and had it create a TOTALLY SEPARATE Calendar entry for all these other types ( and calculate the "age" ).Similarly, it creates a new Contact just to record things like Anniversaries - as Birthdays.. Hmmm :-(
Right now, there's no reason for me to totally transition to Proton Contacts or Calendar because the infrastructure of basic requirements simply doesn't exist.
