Cameo's birthday reminder app, Candl, is a weak attempt at a comeback | TechCrunch
Briefly

Cameo experienced a significant decline last year, with its valuation dropping by 90% and financial issues preventing it from paying a $600,000 FTC fine. The company launched a new birthday planning app called Candl, which helps users keep track of friends' birthdays by syncing contact information and sending reminders. The app also includes a feature that shows zodiac compatibility and allows users to share birthday information with others. However, despite ambitious prior projects, Cameo faces a decline in app downloads since its peak during the pandemic.
