### 5/5 — Worth money 100%

*2020-11-27, version 3.1.1*

Just try it.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2016-11-04, version 2.7.4*

It is a way of keeping track of what you've already spent. But I wanted a budget app - how much money left per person.

### 1/5 — Did not fit the bill

*2014-11-25, version 2.7.4*

I was looking for some way to organize my Christmas Lists what my kids have told me they want and ideas I have for them, when I find these products on sale, a way to show their price, location or web site, and a way to put multiple locations prices for each item.  I did not find that with your app

### 3/5 — Thank you cards needed

*2012-07-13, version 2.7.2*

Everything is there except with gifts received there should be a spot for thank you card sent or give it an option on cards.

### 4/5 — This is a great app.

*2011-11-24, version 2.6.2*

This is easy to use. You can email a list to yourself or someone else. I'm able to look back to see what I've purchased for people before. I can use the iPhone app on my iPad but, I would give it 5 stars if you could make it an iPad app also.

### 4/5 — Very Helpful App

*2011-09-07, version 2.6.2*

I really like this application. I love being about the customize views by person, store or occasion. I wish I could customize the budget by occasion or person. The program allows only one budget per list, which doesn't work well for me since I have a Christmas budget and a person budget. I spend more on some people than others, so one global budget really doesn't work for me.

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2010-12-26, version 2.4.6*

Love this app! It doesn't just do gifts. The birthday card list is fabulous. I keep track of over 80 birthdays and anniversary. This had helped me greatly in the past 6 months. Gift list is great too. Nothing needs to improve for it to be an amazing help. There are always things that could make it prettier and such, but this will improve your life right away. Just had my first ever Christmas remembering all gifts I bought, managing budgets for family, and keeping track of who wanted what. I don't use it as an address book. I have an app for that. This is a two-for-one having cards and gifts list in one app. I use it constantly for cards and add to gift lists as I go. You will find it the best available so far.

### 4/5 — Great app!

*2010-09-29, version 0*

This is a wonderful app with a ton of features!  My only requests would be for the app to integrate with my contact list when adding people and occasions.   I would love a checkbox list to popup listing upcoming occasions from my contact list and when a new occasion is entered and I need to create a list for certain attendees or even for cards, again I'd love for the app to pull the info from my contact list (including addresses).  These features would make this app nearly perfect!

### 3/5 — Needs work

*2009-11-30, version 0*

This app is the most "complete" Christmas organizer I could find but it could still use some work to make it perfect.
1. The app crashes when I move an item from one list to another. This is especially annoying when password protect is enabled.
2. I wish the greeting card portion of the app had an address book. Seems silly to keep track of cards this way when I need to refer elsewhere for the addresses anyway.
3. I'd like to see a To Do list to keep track of things like decorating and holiday baking.
4. It would be nice if purchased gifts were moved to another list to track whether or not they've been wrapped.
5. This is nitpicky, but I hate the combination lock style password. It's irritating to have to scroll through.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2009-11-24, version 0*

Great App. But it would be nice if they add the budget feature and the ability to drag an item to another group to listomni.
