  • Could use a little more features/functionality

    I purchased this app for the upgrade after liking the functionality of the light version. I have use the Gift Plan app for years but this one has a little more functionality and ease of use. This app is aesthetically pleasing and it works well on the iPhone eight...have not experienced any crashing to date and have used it heavily for approximately four days. To the developer, I would suggest the ability to scan receipts within each gift. It would be nice to be able to enter the details of a new gift and take a picture at the same time, rather than to hit the done button after entering gift detail then go back into the gift to retake the picture...almost seems like a glitch. Otherwise a pretty useful app. that I will enjoy using. Thank you

  • Keeps taking me back

    Used the app for 2016 Christmas list with no probs, but since creating one for 2017 a few months back, every time I load the app it goes back to my 2016 list and I have to go back in and load my 2017 again. Every. Single. Time.
    Would be much easier if it loaded on the same list where I left off, or at least at a list of the different events to choose from.

  • The Christmas Gift List

    This a great holiday management application that allows you to create gifts lists from scratch or import them from your contacts of the free version in case you are upgrading to the premium version. The app backs up data to iCloud so all devices can be used for your gift planning as well. The app includes not just you marking down the gift recipient's name but categorizing the people included by family, friends or other. The amount of the gift as well as personal notes for that person can be recorded as well. The app even goes as far as allowing you to archive gifts from years back and marking the status of the gift such as if it is just purchased or if it needs to be packaged, presented and shipped. The design is somewhat basic and nothing special but the interface is easy to navigate and add data to. The app has also little ancillary features which bring some personality such as the ability to add photos for people and their gifts as well as countdown clock to Christmas or New Year's.

  • Great App

    I have been using this app since it was available. I love all the features it has. There are a few thing that would make it perfect. First, it would be great to be able to make a list of stores to choose from instead of always having to type it in every time or have it recognize what store it is so you can tap on the store anywhere in the app. Second, it would be great to have a section to make groups for family members to make adding names easier. Third, it would be nice to have a "wish list" area for gift ideas through the year. Fourth, it needs a place to track stocking stuffer things so I can remember what I bought to make sure I spend fairly. Lastly, I have an iPhone 7plus and I can't view the whole page when looking at the progress. I can only see the graph and can't rotate the app to see the information. I have to use my iPad to view the entire progress page which is not helpful when I'm in a store. I'm playing around with some new apps to see if they are more user friendly.

  • Christmas Countdown

    I like this app - this is my 2nd or 3rd year with it, but I will go with another app next year if there isn't a few improvements. 1) I want the ability to delete a gift without having to delete the entire list and start from scratch. 2) I need the list to roll over year to year so I don't have to enter ALL of my people and pictures AGAIN. (I like the picture feature) and 3) I would like to ARCHIVE my lists from year to year, so I don't duplicate gifts. Some people are hard to shop for, so it helps if I can see what I have bought in the past so I can try to be creative rather than get stuck in a rut.

  • Santas Little Helper

    What a tool for organizing Christmas shopping! I started using it several months ago as I began collecting ideas for gifts. As Christmas is approaching I'm whittling down my lists and starting to shop. Tomorrow I hit the brick and mortar stores with a list of presents organized by store. I especially like that my data is available across multiple devices, giving me freedom to maintain my list without being tethered to any one device. What I would like is a listing of people showing the budget amount and how much I've spent.

  • Favorite Christmas list app

    I have been using this app for almost 4 years now and it is great! I use it every Christmas to keep all my Christmas ideas and purchases here. It helps me stay organized. It also helps me remember what people say through out the year that they want toe need. If I hear someone on my list say "oh that's so cute I want one of those" I'll hurry up and act like I'm texting, but really I'm opening the app and marking that down under that persons name. Awesome app! Recommend to all my friends and family!

  • Password function not working

    Hi I purchased this app as it said it had the password function as my children use my phone and I don't won't them looking at what I plan to buy them. The password only works after turning phone off completely. Once you put the password in once and then leave the app the password is then not required when returning to the app soon after so I am unable to use this app as it is pointless to use if you need to completely turn your phone off and on each time you want to use the app. If you do not power off you phone after using it once it is then NOT password protected. Very disappointed in spending money on this app!

  • Used to love, but no more

    I used this app last Christmas,2015 and loved it. Was using it this year and decided to make it password protected, it allowed me to put 4 letters as a password and initially I was not having any problems, then today, October 20th, I tried entering my code but it would not allow me to enter any letters, only numeric. Therefore it has locked me out with no way to contact anyone to find out why.
    I've tried to delete the app and reinstall it to no avail. Not a happy Christmas shopper :(

  • Love it

    I can add ideas for the kids presents and add a photo and store name so I don't forget where to go back too.
