Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I use a dedicated calendar to track the birthdays of people (who are not necessarily in my phone contacts). With recurring events this is pretty easy as one can repeat the event every year. What I'm missing though is a field where I can save their birth-year so that I can see how old they are at each of the later birthday events without manually calculating the age or increasing the age in the description field.

Describe the solution you'd like I see three nice scenarios:

Describe alternatives you've considered As I said, currently I manually calculate the age at the time I start to track a birthday and use the Description filed to store the age which needs a manual increase once the next birthday happens - really tiresome.

I also tried dedicated apps but I want to minimize the number of apps I install on my phone and the big downside of this approach is that now I have to check two apps which have date related stuff and it would be much nicer to have all things centralized in a single app.

Additional context none

Nice idea and alert notification would be great in order to not forget. Add a settings option alert at let user define hour of the day for all birthday to trigger notification
