Reminder settings for birthdays Birthday v1.2.2.8

In the settings, I think, first of all, you need to select “Run a program with Windows”, otherwise its whole meaning is simply lost. After all, you may forget to launch it yourself before some important date that you no longer remember.

I also select “Minimize to tray at startup” so that after every time you turn on the computer, the program window does not appear on the desktop. I sort the list in order of approaching someone's birthday. To do this, click on “Next”. When clicked, sorting occurs either in forward or reverse order:

You can change the remaining settings at your discretion and you can sort the list in different ways by clicking on any column name. Be it “full name”, “Date”, etc. There were some minor flaws in the reminder version v1.0.3.5. For example, it was not possible to delete the entire list of birthdays.

I had to leave at least one line unselected, and then delete it. When moving the scroll slider to the right, the list stood still and only after the end of scrolling did it suddenly jump. And some other little things. All this has been fixed in version v1.2.2.8.

Google Keep is probably the best note-taking app out there right now. It has a collaboration feature that allows you to share notes with others. You can also include text, list, photos, audio and video in your note. You can also change the colors of your notes for easier organization. You can set reminders for a specific time or place. This is one of the most useful reminder apps.
