## Review summary

Users like that the app automatically finds birthdays, offers gifting/cash‑card features, and has a clean, fun design. Major complaints are widespread bugs (including a confetti‑only screen), inability to delete birthdays or accounts, and a confusing UI that forces contact import and shows a mostly blank home screen.

### Pros

- Automatically finds friends' birthdays from contacts (no Facebook required)
- Built‑in gifting features — send gifts instantly and redeem via a cash card
- Clean, well‑designed and fun interface (pleasant look/feel)
- Useful notifications to remind you of birthdays

### Cons

- App is frequently buggy or doesn't work reliably (crashes/blank screens)
- Confetti/celebration displays often appear with no further functionality when opening the app
- Cannot delete birthdays or delete account — limited control over data
- Confusing workflow: blank home screen until search and forced contact import/no easy bypass
