A lunar birthday reminder that lands on the right day
A lunar birthday sits on the Chinese lunar calendar, so its Gregorian date moves every year. Loomday does the conversion for you and reminds you in time — no yearly lookup, no mental math.

If someone's birthday is set by the Chinese lunar calendar, it falls on a different Gregorian date each year — sometimes weeks apart. Calendar apps that only understand fixed dates quietly get it wrong, and the day slips past. That's exactly the problem Loomday was built to solve.
How Loomday handles it
- Store the original lunar date once. Loomday converts it to the day it falls this year — and every year after, including leap months.
- Choose how early you're reminded: a week ahead to send a card, the night before, or the morning of.
- See the countdown on a Home Screen or Lock Screen widget, updated automatically.
- Import birthdays from Contacts so you're not retyping anything.
More than the Chinese lunar calendar
The same automatic conversion covers Hebrew, Islamic (Hijri), Indian and Persian (Solar Hijri) dates — plus ordinary Gregorian birthdays and anniversaries. One app for every calendar the people you love actually use.
Private by design
Loomday is free, needs no account, and keeps everything on your iPhone. Your dates, photos and stories never leave the device — there's nowhere for them to go.
