misschien een optie om de catergorie ook in de totaal lijst te zien en hierop te kunnen filteren. Zeker als je hem gebruikt voor werk of vereniging. Hier is meer verloop en wil je snel kunnen zoeken

Hello, I just tried your app.

There seems to bee a lot not translated.

 ![Screenshot_20260826_155034_Homey](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/9/c/9c1f35999c034c73693af7a474e9dbd5b8c2fdc1.jpeg)

And if I want to enter a new bithday ther are no descriptions what the fields are for and no possibility to save the entered data.

</div>

Can we add some “male/female/other” property in the bday list so that I can properly use the right male/female pronoun in the bday message I send?

Other cool stuff would be to add a nickname (because I use the nickname in the message)

I’m currently working on a bug fix for all the bugs mentioned, including the time zone issue. And finally, iCalc integration.

Sorry this app does not work since the beginning. Maybe I do something wrong. But what can I do with a configuration page like this:

Good morning,

🎉v2.1.5

## 🚀 New test Version Available!

This update makes sure **everyone** celebrating on the same day gets their birthday message from the **Birthdays** app! 🎂✨

* * *

## Fix

🎂 **Multiple Birthdays on the Same Day** : Fixed birthday messages only being sent to the first person when several people have their birthday on the same day. Every birthday person now triggers the Flow at the configured time, even when a Flow (for example sending a WhatsApp or SMS message) takes longer to finish.

⏱ **Reliable Time Check** : The birthday check now runs exactly once per minute and no longer drifts or skips a minute. Also fixed Flows with a set time not triggering when Homey is set to Danish, Korean or Arabic.

* * *

## Improvements

📋 **Better Diagnostics** : The app log now shows who has their birthday today, and the global tokens are updated before the Flow starts.

Dear LRvdLinden,

My statement was intended simply as information. I appreciate your efforts to develop a great app, and I would love to use it. However, in its current form (see my previous posts), it’s not usable for me and just takes up space on Homey.

🎉v2.1.6

## 🚀 New live Version Available!

This update makes the **Birthdays** settings clear and readable again in both light and dark mode! 🎂✨

* * *

## Fix

🌙 **Dark Mode Settings Fixed** : Fixed settings pages that could become unreadable in dark mode. The settings now follow the theme of the Homey app instead of only your phone’s theme, so you no longer get white text on a white background (or dark on dark) when both use a different theme.

* * *

## Improvements

🎨 **One Consistent Look** : The main menu, birthday list, birthday form and iCal calendars now share one light and dark colour scheme, with readable text, fields and buttons everywhere.
