A lot of people on Facebook and other sites are naturally shy of social media sites announcing birthdays on the site. What's the Ninja action on this ?

@kevinmineyours Not just their birthday. Many Facebook users don't set their year of birth or make it visible to others. That's one of the problems that I encountered on the first version. There used to be an "Import contacts from Facebook" feature but I removed it in version 1.1.1. The Facebook user can set his/her birthday to month and day only with no year. The app needs all three (month, day, year) plus the name/nickname. The created birthday infographic is better sent via email with a custom birthday wish. Let the celebrant be the one to post it on his/her Facebook timeline if he/she wants to share it with friends. If you are referring to the website, it only requires the birthday info with no name. This is to make the celebrant anonymous since the generated birthday page is visible to the public. Please note that the lite web version and the app are separate. You can use both or just one of them but only the app can create the birthday infographics.

@ricgalit I hope you felt my question helpful. I think you have a massive hit on your hands. I couldn't get into the app through your Product Hunt links yesterday. Not sure if this was because of the Apple problems. So I will try again today. However this is a great product. I don't do birthday messages ( and I'm sure I'm not alone) But if I can send a message that gives a wealth of exciting information about the birthday, oh my gosh. Again i haven't seen the site or app so forgive me if this is a feature, If i could filter that message to focus on the birthdays interests i.e.: politics, business, art, history WOW. Also you must give the customer instant Ninja security. like, NINJA DOESN'T SHARE you share. You are going to need a synergy with web and app. The integrations are endless, WhatsApp, Twitter, Ok enough, Wish this was mine. Good luck.

This $0.99 app designs cute, ninja-themed birthday infographics so that you can stand out from the tsunami of birthday greetings on Facebook, or over email.

This is definitely something unique. Would like to see it pull in the birthdays from Facebook, not just contacts.

@mrkampmann The ability to pull birthdays from Facebook was originally included in version 1.1 but I decided to remove it. Facebook requires that both you and your friends must use the app before the birthday list can be imported to the app. It somehow defeats the purpose of being the first person to use the app and send the birthday infographics. There are other workarounds to the problem but it requires violating the use of the SDK.

Hey Product Hunt(ers)! I'm very happy that my birthday ninja app was listed here. Big thanks to @kikischirr for hunting. Feel free to ask any questions about the app. I would love to get some feedback on how to make it better for the next update. (Hint: more ninjas and more templates are coming!) You can give it a try without having to buy the app by visiting the website http://mybirthday.ninja That's where the app is pulling the data from. The web version will give you the birthday facts but no infographics.

@zaccoffman Thanks for the suggestion. I experimented on that idea but the CPU and memory resources needed to create one infographic is too much. I can use AWS or other cloud providers but I'm not comfortable charging users for each infographic that they want to create. IMO, a monthly or yearly subscription is too much to ask for. I ended up creating the paid app with unlimited use. No ads, nothing to unlock with IAP and all current including future templates will be available to the user.
