Automatic transfer of data (e.g., birthdays) to the calendar
Paying user here, with contacts and calendars already fully migrated to Proton. The birthday field exists in Contacts, but there is no way to surface it in Calendar — so for every new contact I have to maintain the date twice: once in the contact, once as a manually created recurring event.
My previous calendar app (Evolution) did this automatically: birthdays and anniversaries from the address book showed up as yearly recurring events. Every major competitor (Apple, Google, Fastmail) has had this for years.
What I'd like to see:
A separate, toggleable "Birthdays" calendar fed by the birthday field in Proton Contacts
Automatic updates — add a birthday to a contact, the event appears
Optional reminder lead time (e.g. one week ahead) and optional age/year display
Ideally support for anniversary fields beyond birthdays
Since Calendar is being rebuilt anyway, this seems like a good moment to include it. Thank you.
