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.

to be able to integrate the birthdays of our contacts in the calendar

I am looking forward to this feature. In the meanwhile, I created a script for generating a birthday calendar (.ics) out of the exported contacts (.vcf).

I'm in favour of this feature.
An important distinction to make, however, is that contacts' birthdays should not *automatically* appear in Calendar, of course.
There should be an option to export birthdays to Calendar.
For example, when creating (or updating) a contact and setting a birthday, an off-by-default checkbox with a prompt such as "Create Calendar entry for this birthday?" could appear. -

If this feature is added please make it optional, I do not wish to busy my calendar with every contacts birthday, I can add the few that I wish to have on there.

This feature is crucial. I add a contact, its birthday and automatically receive event "birthday" in my calendar. It's very comfortable feature. If I don't care about birthday of my contact I will not set it :)

Hmmmmm...... what would actually be more useful is a birthday export to calendar from contacts which places an event two weeks before the birthday that says 'order [name]'s birthday present'!

Because birthday is a way to think about the ones we like, proton calendar could integrate birthday of proton contacts in its view. A notification when a the day of birthday contact could help users to always be on time.

In my opinion, this is already a common function in rivals products. I believe it will be implemented soon.

Good idea! One way to make it available but optional would be to automatically create a calendar with imported birthday and then you can choose to display it or not

It would be great if we could enter a birthdate or anniversary in the Contacts database and then it show up on the Calendar, defaulted to All Day with a 1 day Notification (subject to manual adjustment, of course).

I have come to rely on this behavior from my primary calendar software synced to Google Contacts. This feature would make it easier to switch completely to Proton apps

It would be helpful if there was an option to have the birthday and anniversary dates in ProtonContacts show up in ProtonCalendar.

Good idea, should be optional though.

One aspect of Fastmail I enjoy is the ability to see my contact's birthdays, if I have that information stored, in my calendar automatically. If this can be done while still maintaining encryption, I would much prefer to use this feature in ProtonMail!
