Import friends birthdays from facebook to your favorite calendar.
What is Birthday Calendar Exporter for Facebook?
Birthday Calendar Exporter for Facebook is a versatile Chrome extension specifically developed to help you keep track of all your Facebook friends' birthdays. Once installed, this utility scans your Facebook friends' birthdays, then generates and exports these dates in ICS or CSV format, which can be easily imported to your preferred calendar program. It also provides quick-glance features, like the cake icon that shows the number of friends with birthdays on any given day. Additionally, it gives you the flexibility to weed out unwanted contacts from your calendar exports through a third-party tool.

Extension summary
With this extension you will
- Follow and never miss your Facebook friends' birthdays.
- Generate and export a calendar with all your Facebook friends' birthdays.
- See number of your friends having birthday today at the extension "cake" icon.
- Have a birthdays' calendar overview.
The birthdays calendar can be exported in ICS
format.
Dates of birth can be downloaded as the CSV
file as well.
- ICS is a universal calendar format used by Microsoft Outlook, Google Calendar, and Apple Calendar.
- CSV file format used by Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets.
At the end of the process a file named birthday-calendar.ics
will be downloaded automatically to your Downloads folder.
Use the generated file to import your friends' birthdays to your favorite calendar program.
I strongly recommend creating a new Birthday themed sub-calendar and use it for imports.

Thank god this exists, Im constantly feeling terrible for forgetting loved one's birthdays so now I can add all this data into my 2nd brain in notion and I can get notified of them. Thank you Peter!
It works! YES you WILL get an error. Just ignore that and click on "Calendar Generator" after the scan. Then after you download that, import the file to Google Calendar and it's there
