Why is it necessary to fill in an phone number? I just want to to have a reminder of a birthday or play a birthday song when wakeup. or calculate how many day’s till the date and put this on a dashboard. ---

Hello. Congratulations on this new app. Just installed and testing. (Version 0.2.1) Most of it works properly, but I still encounter 1 problem. I have 1 precise date where I have 2 birthdays, the app apparently cannot handle that, when I create a test flow with a timeline notification or WhatsApp I only receive the 1st birthday of the 2 that are configured on this day. The 2nd birthday disappears into nature What would also be useful is to add an edit button to change data instead of having to enter everything again. Will this be in one of the next updates? Thank you [Next page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-birthdays-for-homey/93178.md?page=2)
