More than a list

A family birthday calendar should do more than hold dates

Most families keep birthdays scattered across phones, calendars, notes, and one person's memory. DateKeeper gives the family one shared calendar and reminds people early enough to actually do something.

The old way
Birthdays scattered everywhere.

Family coordination

Help the whole family remember, not just one person

One person creates the master calendar and shares reminders with everyone else, so the family birthday manager isn't the only one who remembers.

Calendar creator
Adds and edits birthdays
Shares the calendar with family
Approves suggested birthdays
Controls the master birthday list
Family member
Receives their own reminders
Suggests missing birthdays
Adjusts personal reminder timing
Personal changes never touch the master list
WhatsApp reminders

Birthday reminders where the family already talks

DateKeeper can send reminders through WhatsApp, so they show up where families already coordinate. Email and Telegram work too.
