My birthday is visible on my friend’s calendar. Somehow friends of my husband also show up on my contacts list and their birthdays on my apple calendar.
How do I stop at least my birthday showing up on other people’s calendars?
iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 16
If your friend entered your birthday into the entry in their contacts for you, it will show up on their calendar (assuming they have an iPhone). Or, they may have entered it manually into their calendar so they can remember your birthday. Other than asking your friend to remove the information from their phone or calendar, there is no way you can prevent it from showing.
Are you sharing an Apple ID with your husband? Or an email/contacts account? If so and if he has entered their birthdays in Contacts, they will show up. The solution there is to stop sharing an Apple ID with your spouse.
Ps it is definitely not option 1 or 3 on your list
Just to add, i already checked my own card in contacts and it only has my phone number. No other details at all

Except, of course, they did. Glad you got it figured out.
That is correct.
I have the same issue! A friend, not even a close friend just someone who took my number for a quote - has my birthday, in red, in his iPhone calendar? How come??
Stop sharing my birthday on other people claendar
