How to See Birthdays on Facebook on iPhone or iPad

This wikiHow teaches you how to see your Facebook friends' upcoming birthdays using an iPhone or iPad. Although birthdays used to appear on the Events calendar, you will now find them on a special page called Birthdays. And if you're worried you'll forget your friends' birthdays, you can customize your Facebook notifications so you'll always be notified of upcoming birthdays.

[Edit]Tips

  • Another way to open the Birthdays page is to tap the Notifications icon (the bell) at the bottom of the screen and select any of your current or past birthday notifications.
  • If a friend hasn't made their birthday public on Facebook, you will not see their birthday on the calendar or be notified when it's approaching.
  • To view a specific friend's birthday, open their profile, tap About, select See All About at the bottom, and then find their birthday under "Basic Info." If you don't see it there, they haven't made their birthdate public.
