It could be implemented as "using contacts as a database" - I don't know how technically easy/possible it is (in your app), but that's the approach that many FOSS apps take on tasks like that:
For example, notes apps that store notes as plain markdown files - so there is no app-lock-in, and you can still easily edit them by hand

You're right, i'll fix this in the next few days

For me, this option doesn't find any birthdays (yes, I gave it permission) - even tho BirthDayDroid finds them fine
Edit: I was an idiot - i did not grant it contacts xD Now it works fine
Also, in my case, I would like to store birthday data in my contacts to avoid app-lock-in (thanks to it, I could now move from BrithDayDroid to your app 🎉) - so a "contacts sync" rather than one-time "import" would be nice 👌

Well, import the contacts again will act as a sync, but if a contact has a different birth date, a double will be created. The name alone is not enough to determine if the event is about the same person, but i'll think about it, a sync could be useful as you said. Regarding the name, the original request of this issue, i should modify it in 1.8. I didn't in 1.7 to avoid modifying every translation 😄

Solved in a2c9343 . Now There's no reference to Google Contacts, since as you said the import regards every contact provider, thus even non Google-saved contacts.
