We just submitted Birthday Reminder 1.2 (which allows to create custom Birthdays) to Apple for review!

After struggling pretty long to get Push Notifications to work (which in the end was due to an anomaly in the Apple Developer Portal application) we are back on track with our developments, and this time we're proud to present our newest release of Birthday Reminder. In this new version the main feature added is the ability to add custom birthdays of persons/events (including a picture)!

We also improved the performance of Facebook imports, and reworked the settings page to be more straightforward.

In our next release, we plan to support more social networksites. But of course, we're always open for suggestions, so contact us if you want your great idea to be added to Birthday!

Birthday Reminder 1.1.1 is submitted to the App Store a few days ago and is ready to push birthday reminders to your iPhone OS 3.0!

As we promised during the initial launch of Birthday Reminder - the one and only app in the App Store which reminds you in a proactive way about upcoming birthdays - Birthday Reminder is ready to notify you of upcoming birthdays through the new Push Mechanism available in iPhone OS 3.0.

So, as soon as the Apple elves release are newest version, you will be able to configure Birthday Reminder to send out push notifications (like the one shown in the screenshot below).

As always: comments, enhancements and even bug reports are always welcome!

We just submitted Birthday Reminder 1.1 (codename: FacebookReminder) to Apple for review.

Yes - only 3 weeks after its initial release we have an update ready and we made sure you really want Apple to publish this update quick: Birthday Reminder 1.1 meets Facebook: you can configure Birthday Reminder to scan all your Facebook friends and get notified by email (or push notifications in the near future) of their upcoming birthday!

And that's not all, we have added some minor enhancements too:

• Multiple colored themes
• Favorites (to not get spammed by birthdays you're not interested in)
• Enhanced email notifications
• Reworked settings screen

As we already pointed out in the description of Birthday Reminder, we are completely setup for iPhone OS 3.0 and Push Notifications.

In order to show a sneak preview of what you can expect, we show a screenshot of our developer iPhone receiving a push notification for an upcoming birthday. In Birthday Reminder for iPhone 3.0, you can choose to either receive notifications by mail, push notification or both.

We even have some more neat features almost ready for submission: Facebook integration and themeing - so stay tuned for any updates!
