Birthday notifications on Google Calendar?

[honey01]

Suppose I want birthday notifications on android phone in the morning. Will this work?.. How to use Google calendar for birthday reminders

Thanks

On above link it only mentions how Birthday would be added to Google Calendar, but no where its mentioned about notification.
In Samsung phone, Samsung Calendar has option to display notification for Birthday at specific time. Not sure about Google Calendar.

hmm. I want something like recurring notifications every year but without any additional app

@honey01 yes, you can do that on google calander.

i manually added birthdays in my regular calendar many many years ago. has worked fine tbh.

at one point of time, google had google+ integration which iirc automatically fetched their birthdays if shared and google would alert you through google now. such a shame that we no longer have that smart functionality.

I have birthdays added to my calendar, but I don't get a notification of them. It annoys me a little because I forget to greet some people close to me. I don't know how to solve this problem. I get notifications from Facebook, but unfortunately, not everyone's birthday is listed there.

The method that I use is put a Google Calendar widget in one of your home screens that you see everyday.
