Stay Informed
Stay on top of crucial notes and events with Dex, ensuring nothing slips through the cracks!
Never miss a birthday! Get notified to send your wishes on time!
With Dex, you can add a friend’s birthday manually through the contact detail panel. However, Dex automatically adds birthdays during the Facebook Import.
Once your birthdays are imported, you can easily access them from the Birthdays page in Dex:
Birthday Reminders
By default, most users will only have reminders via email for Most Birthdays, not all birthdays. In particular, you can configure your birthday reminder notification settings here:
- Disabled: if you turn this off, you won’t get any reminders
- Important birthdays: you’ll only receive email reminders for contacts that are starred or have a last interaction.
- All birthdays: you’ll receive email reminders for all contacts that have a birthday

Stay in the loop! With LinkedIn sync active, Dex notifies you of both title changes and new connections, keeping your network current.
Title Changes
After setting up LinkedIn, you’ll spot title changes conveniently displayed on the main Today page, like so:
-
By default, you’ll receive emails about title changes, which you can turn off with notification settings.
-
Title changes are shown in the ‘Today’ feed from most recent to least recent.
-
If contact is archived, you generally won’t get title change notifications for them.
New Connections
Dex also notifies you of any new connections synced to your account:
With Gmail and Google Calendar sync, Dex keeps tabs on all your email exchanges and upcoming meetings!
