Generate a calendar with all your facebook friends birthdays.
The generated calendar file is saved in `ICS` or `CSV` formats.
How to use
Click on extension icon (“cake”) and select one of the required formats:
– Generate Google Calendar – ICS is a universal calendar format used by Microsoft Outlook, Google Calendar, and Apple Calendar.
– Generate Excel file – CSV
– Remove from Google Calendar – ICS file used to remove previously imported birthday events.
At the end of the process a file named `birthday-calendar.ics` will be downloaded automatically to your Downloads folder.
Use the generated file to import your friends birthdays to your calendar program.
I suggest creating a new Birthday themed sub-calendar and use it for imports.
FAQ

Big thanks to:

It is open source, feel free to check it here: https://github.com/zagushka/birthday-calendar-extractor
I should thank you for making such a useful tool. Great work 🙂
I tried so many extensions. Nothing works. Your app pops up with a message checking for FB login and nothing happens… I think FB has prevented access to the events extraction.. Let me know if you have a fix or workaround.
Worked as expected, been searching for a while. Thank you!
Quick and easy! Deeply appreciated.
You’re an angel. Facebook removed the export option and you brought it back
Good day….I tried so many extensions. Nothing works. Your app pops up with a message checking for FB login and nothing happens… I think FB has prevented access to the events extraction.. Let me know if you have a fix or workaround.
Need help!
Hi guys. Can anyone tell me how to get the ICS extension from facebook? Im looking for it last last hour and just wasting my time! Could you help me?
It is not working. It just keeps loading and stays that way. It is over an hour, yet still the same result.
excelente
Hey it’s not working here???
Worked exactly like it should. Easy!
Exactly what i needed and created a CSV file with URLs and birthdays. Perfect and quick!
Worked great! Even added a fun little birthday cake icon to help identify from other calendar items. A++
Worked great.
does as it say. very clean, easy to use and straightforward extension to use. I used it to extract all the birthdays and events from my Facebook. Then I imported this calendar this extension created to my Google calendar. It was very easy. Now I don’t have to keep Facebook in my mobile to remember the birthdays of my friends.
Thanks Peter.
Amazing!!! Thanks
Does its job, congratulations
Not working.
Ive logged in and clicked the Extension…but it just keeps loading without any feedback. I’ve refreshed, opened the FB Birthday page, Reinstalled Chrome etc but it just keeps loading.
I have less than 300 friend’s birthday on FB to import so I don’t know why it should take 40 mins plus to import.
The birthdates being generated to the CSV and ICS files begin with today’s date and grow incrementally by one each row. Example, the birthdate in row 1 is 1-20-2021. I’m sure based on the reviews this extension works well, but it’s not right now.
great
It’s not working, any idea why?
It’s Jan 2021. Not sure if the extension’s still working.
Exporting to ICS or CSV is stuck in “loading” and no file exported into my Downloads folder.
Can the developer let me know if this still works?
Thank you.
Crazy useful and fast. :clap: :clap:
Thank you!
Worked perfectly for calendar export. Thank you.
Parfait ! Après avoir passé Facebook en anglais (ce que l’extension propose), ca fonctionne à merveille 🙂
