How to Find Birthdays on Facebook App 2021

Easiest way to find your friends' birthday using the Facebook app

Social networks such as Facebook relieve us from the hassle of remembering the birthdays of our friends, colleagues, and family. Facebook notifies you about today’s birthdays as well as the upcoming birthdays. Hence, it’s nearly impossible for you to forget a friend’s birthday (added on Facebook) unless you miss the birthday notification. Having said that, if some friends have hidden their birth information then Facebook may not notify you about their birthday.

While you can view birthdays on the Facebook website, the same is also possible through the Facebook app. By manually scrolling through the birthday directory, you can easily see today’s birthdays, recent birthdays, and upcoming birthdays.

UPDATE (15 March 2020) – The Facebook app is going through a major revamp and hence certain settings and features are redesigned. One such thing is the ability to find friends’ birthdays. Ever since the launch of a new Menu tab, the Calendar doesn’t list birthdays altogether. The Calendar page now shows information related to event invites, hosting, past events, and your upcoming events.

Thankfully, it is still possible to view birthdays from within the Facebook app. Without waiting further, let’s see how to find birthdays on Facebook app for Android and iPhone.

How to Find Friends Birthdays on Facebook App

  1. Open Facebook and tap the search button at the top right.
  2. Enter “birthdays” and tap the “Upcoming Birthdays” Facebook shortcut. search birthdays on facebook app
  3. You can now view the upcoming and recent birthdays. Additionally, the Birthdays page shows the forthcoming birthdays of all your Facebook friends from the entire year. find friends birthday on facebook app

Now you can tap a particular profile and wish your friends on Messenger or write on their timeline.

On PC or Mac – To find birthdays on your computer or desktop, visit facebook.com. Click the Events option in the left sidebar. (Tap See More if you can’t see Events). Then click “Birthdays” to see the upcoming birthdays and birthdays of your friends from the following months.

    My notifications no longer have birthdays even though it is all set up to do so and has done so for 14 years. Manually checking birthdays is not a solution. Does anyone know why notifications are not sent even though push and sms are activated for birthdays? Thanks.
