RingyDing connects people who want to celebrate a birthday with real strangers who are happy to make someone's day — live, on video.
Imagine getting a birthday call from someone fascinating — a retired pilot, a former chef, someone who's lived a completely different life to yours — who chose to call you just to make your day. That's RingyDing.
There are two ways to be part of RingyDing. Choose yours.
Download the app, enter your birthday, and tell us a little about yourself — your favourite things, your availability.
On your special day, sit back. Real strangers who genuinely want to celebrate you will start calling.
Accept a call when you're ready. The app offers friendly conversation prompts so there's never an awkward silence.
Each call is a warm, real moment with a real person. No scripts, no actors — just genuine birthday joy.
On someone's birthday, open RingyDing in Wisher mode. You're about to make a stranger's day.
The app finds a Celebrant who shares today's birthday and is available for a call right now.
A live video call connects you. Friendly prompts help you start the conversation — but you'll be surprised how naturally it flows.
You just made a real person feel celebrated on their birthday. That's the gift — for both of you.
Birthdays should feel special. But for millions of people, the day passes quietly — fewer calls than expected, fewer people who remember.
RingyDing is built on a simple belief: there are people in the world who genuinely want to make a stranger's birthday wonderful. And there are people who would love to receive that call.
We built the app to connect them — safely, warmly, and for free. No ads, no subscription, no catch. Just real people, making each other's day.
"I didn't expect to cry. But hearing a stranger say happy birthday — and mean it — that was something I'll never forget."

Be one of our Founding Celebrants — the first people to receive birthday calls when we launch. Your spot is waiting.
Everything you need to know before your first call.
Wishers are regular people — often adult children or grandchildren wanting to do something meaningful for someone's birthday, or simply kind-hearted people who enjoy spreading joy. Every user on RingyDing is verified. We also use AI-powered content moderation to keep interactions warm and appropriate.
Safety is our top priority. You can end any call at any time with one tap. You can report any user immediately after a call, and our team reviews every report. Reported users can be warned, suspended, or permanently banned — and device-level bans mean they can't simply create a new account. You are always in control.
RingyDing is designed with simplicity as a priority — large text, clear buttons, and a warm, uncluttered layout. If you can make a FaceTime call, you can use RingyDing. And when you sign up for the waitlist, we'll send you a step-by-step guide before launch so you feel confident from day one.
Not at all. As a Celebrant, you set your own availability windows — the times and days when you're happy to receive calls. Outside of those windows, no calls will come through. And even within an availability window, you can always decline an incoming call with one tap, no explanation needed.
We thought about this. RingyDing surfaces friendly conversation prompt cards during every call — questions and topics tailored to the Celebrant's interests (things like their favourite films, travel memories, or hobbies). The prompts are there when you need them and easy to ignore when the conversation is already flowing. Most callers find the awkwardness lasts about 10 seconds.
We're putting the finishing touches on RingyDing now and planning a soft launch very soon. Join the waitlist to be among the first to know — and to secure your Founding Celebrant status before we open to the public.
Anyone 18 or over can be a Wisher — Celebrants tend to be older adults who love the idea of receiving a birthday call, but anyone who wants to be celebrated is welcome. The app is designed to be especially easy to use for people who didn't grow up with smartphones.
RingyDing is currently available for iPhone and iPad running iOS 17 or later. An Android version is on our roadmap.
Founding Celebrants are the first people to sign up as Celebrants before the app officially launches. They get permanent recognition in the app, priority access on launch day, and a personalised countdown to their first birthday call. It's our way of saying thank you to the people who believed in RingyDing from the very beginning.
