Comparison
Greetigo vs WishDay
An email with the message ready vs a phone app that writes the greeting
WishDay is a birthday reminder app for iPhone and Android that writes a greeting for you with AI: you pick the tone, length and emoji level, review it, then share it. Greetigo emails you before each date with a message already written, on the web or in its apps for iPhone (US only) and Mac.
