  • Fabulous Organiser!

    I love this app for keeping all my Christmas present organising in order. It is almost perfect!
    Only 2 small things keep it from being perfect; 1) l wish l could put down the exact price of items instead of rounding up or rounding down of the prices to the nearest pound. All those pennies add up when buying for 3 children, to keep them even. 2) l wish it was for more than just an iPhone, recommended it to a friend but as she had a Samsung she couldn’t download it.

  • My new favourite App

    I make a present list every year for three reasons 1. For who I need to buy for. 2. For ideas for presents and 3. To keep track of what I have brought for who.
    As the kids get older it’s becoming difficult to hide the list, remember where I put and I also never had it with me when I needed it. This app is just brilliant it does all three of my reason for having a list, it’s always with me and it’s lockable so the kids can’t get in to it.
    I would highly recommend this app

  • Excellent way of organising presents

    I have used this app for years for keeping a control of what I have bought each person, how much it cost and where I am in my budget. You can add categories to separate out work colleagues or family etc. It has a pass pin lock so nosy family members can’t see what I have been buying! The stages are really useful too, I can go from an idea to bought, shipping, wrapped and presented and see graphically where I am overall. It’s easy to roll over too. One thing I would like though is an easier way to compare this and last years individual budgets. You can do it but it could be easier.

  • Good app but could be great with some minor “tweaks”

    Good app and great that you can sync with iCloud
    Across devices. Just a few minor frustrations and some suggestions.

    - when you select the option to “show cents” so can type in pounds and pence, sometimes it will not let you type in the price or accept a decimal unless you select all and replace
    - when you add a gift under a contact, it will not let you add an image. You have to press “done” then go to “gifts” section to add the image.
    - it would be helpful if there was a drop down list for the status of the gift when entering the gift.
    - it would be helpful if the app would remember the stores you added and give an drop list option when adding a new gift, so you can can choose to resell them rather than type out again.
    - would be nice if could view images of gifts against each person. Presently, these can only be viewed under the “gifts” section.
    - would be helpful if could put a “check” against a person when all gifts bought.

    I have tried a couple of similar apps and do think this is one of the better ones, especially because of the iCloud option.

  • Perfect for big families & Pre planners!

    I have 5 daughters, 9 grandchildren, & a great grand baby coming soon...so I start shopping for Christmas as soon as Christmas ends. This app is PERFECT! It is amazing at not only helping me track what I have already purchased (so I know to look for where it’s been hidden for 6+ months), it also helps me track the number of gifts to prevent perceptions of favoritism. Also of importance, it is curbing my overspending.

    The minor fee for the upgrade is well worth it to me so I may look back to see what I purchased in previous years.

    I have tried a number of gift tracking apps and this one met my OCD requirements. Well done!

  • Perfect, Quick & Simple

    So great for recording spontaneous gift ideas. If you need something for recording store name, URL we’d site address, reviews, etc, and investing an hour of your time for each entry, then there are other choices out there. This one is simple, does all I need, and is the one I’ve come back to year after year. It’s perfect! Please don’t make it any more complex, but if you must, create a new & different app and leave this one alone. Thank you.

  • Good app but...

    For the most part the app works great for its purpose. But I have two issues: one I was not able to upgrade my lite version and archive last years list & gifts, which is why I upgraded in the first place.
    Second, I have a suggested feature that, I think, will make this more user friendly. There needs to be an option to mark out or highlight people’s names once you are completely done with them or move them to the bottom as completed. Yes I know you can choose to sort them OUT but I like to see them all at once and see who’s done and who is not on same page. Just my two cents worth.

  • Makes gift buying easy

    Easiest way to keep track of my Christmas shopping. Love how it has the progress graph and countdown, so I know exactly how many things I have to buy and how long I have. Can’t recommend it highly enough!
  • If you like lists ...

    Very useful and easy to use. Enabled me to keep track of all the Christmas presents and the gifts for four close family birthdays that are all in Christmas week. I usually have to keep getting everything I’ve bought out the cupboards to remind me what I still need to buy. This app was much easier and kept track of my spending too.
