Notification Alerts for Important Dates

[öNonMonkö]

Dear Samsung,

There is a provision within contacts, to set important dates like an anniversary or birthday.

Please, provide a feature that a notification with alarm pops up on the day of the event, at a preset time, rather than users having to set a repeating alarm in calendar or reminder. 

Thanks.

It's already there just go to contact > choose contact as per your choice and tap Edit, now tap 'view more' option and you can see 'important dates' text box, set date and save... however you can't set time...

Dude, did you read my post carefully?

I requested for notifications, for the important dates.

So notification not triggered???

[öNonMonkö]

Nope.

But I found out how to set and get notifications.

Calendar ➡️ Settings ➡️ Alert times ➡️ contacts' birthdays.

Edit: Long back, I had requested for this feature, but never knew that Samsung ultimately provided it.

I had also requested for a conversation table in Samsung calculator, which Samsung provided and they informed me that they did. This was a couple of years back.

Nice... this will help me too... 👍

Nice to be of help. I'm not so particular about the 'accept solution' plus point, but if you want to accept my post as a solution, I'd be glad.

I used a Blackberry Q10 in the era when Blackberry smartphones ruled the roost, and the Blackberry smartphones had the notification feature.

Got the notifications to work but can not figure out how to get it to show age.  The contact section let's you put in a year but I can not find anywhere that it actually uses it.  Would love for it to show age.
