Safari extensions are new in iOS 15! They let apps interact with websites you browse on Safari, just like a Chrome extension. hbd uses a Safari extension to help you import your Facebook friends' birthdays.

How to Get the Extension

  1. Make sure you already have hbd and are signed into the app, and you're on iOS 15+

  2. Open Safari on your iPhone

  3. To the left of the address bar on any website, tap the "aA" icon. This will open a popup menu.
