Try adding a contact for them in your contacts list.
If the Birthdate field isn’t there, there is a button to add fields.
Add the birthdate field. And enter their birth date, which will include the 
year.

Make sure that in your Settings, Calendar, the birthday calendar is selected so 
it will show; don’t make it the default of course, but make sure it will show 
up.
Then, I believe you will get what you are looking for.

Subject: Re: how to create a calendar event that increments each occurance

Hi Dan,

Unfortunately, I don’t know an easy way to do this. The closest thing I could 
come up with is when you create an event with their birthdays, put the year 
they were borne in the notes section or title. That is the only way I can think 
of. Sorry I couldn’t be of more assistance.

grandchildren's birthdays.  I'd like it to indicate their age each time the 
event comes around.



I assume I can do this by some how including some kind of control in the title 
or a date or something but can't seem to find info on it.



Any ideas?



I use the calendar app native to the Iphone and Ipad.  If I have to I can move 
to another app but would rather not.



Thanks.
