What happened the day I was born?
A birth date is more than an age. It is also an exact point inside an era: news, music, technology, culture and people who were living on that same day.

Your date as a doorway into an era
Vivímetro starts with an exact date and places it in context. The goal is not to summarize an entire year, but to bring you closer to what the world looked and felt like around that moment.
Some data can be determined precisely —such as your date, age or elapsed days— while other material depends on historical archives or editorial sources. That is why the experience separates exact data, estimates and recreational content.
What you can find
Depending on the date and country, Vivímetro can show nearby historical events, cultural references, music from the period, everyday objects, media and birthday matches with well-known people.
When a match falls on the exact same day and month of birth, it is presented as such. Historical references should be interpreted according to the source and the coverage available for that date.
Why looking at your birth day can be interesting
A date can connect a personal biography with much larger processes. Two people of the same age may have been born into very different countries, technologies and social contexts.
Vivímetro aims to make that relationship visible without turning a historical coincidence into an explanation of your personality or destiny.
The important part, without mixing concepts
Did these events happen exactly on the day I was born?
When there is an exact match, it is identified. In other cases, the page may show context from the surrounding period, which should be read as historical context rather than necessarily as an event from that exact day.
Does Vivímetro store my birth date?
The app is designed to perform its main calculations in your browser and does not need to store your birth date to show the experience.
