The Story Behind Hooraydar
Hooraydar was born out of a very personal need. As the creator of this app, I come from a bustling family of 7 and am a proud uncle to 12 wonderful nieces and nephews. With such a large and loving family, I quickly realized that keeping track of everyone's birthdays was becoming a challenge.
Birthdays are important and I wanted to ensure that my family members and friends felt special and remembered on their big day. My amazingly well-organized wife did her best to keep track but it took a lot of mental effort and when I became an uncle for 10th time she offically passed those duties on to me. With so many dates to remember, I found myself occasionally forgetting or sending belated wishes which felt terrible! That's when I knew I needed a system - a reliable way to keep on top of all these important dates.
I built myself a private system which sent me email reminders for each birthday with enough notice to get a gift purchased and delivered in time. I used this system successfully for years and when telling others about it would regularly hear that they would love to use it too!
I finally found the time to make this publicly available for all to enjoy. Hooraydar is not just an app; it's a solution that came from the heart, designed to help people like me show their loved ones they care, no matter how busy life gets.
