### 4/5 — Bien pratique

*2023-11-07*

Bien pratique pour n’oublier aucun anniversaire et noter les idées de cadeaux. 
L’appli est fonctionnelle, l’esthétique n’a pas évolué depuis un moment

Plus de mise à jour, application abandonnée.

### 4/5 — Long time user

*2020-08-27, version 1.8.12*

I have used this app for many years and have never found anything I like better.  I love the holiday categories and all the integrations.  I do wish it would get a bit of an updated look after all this time... I would also like to see more budget options (how much did I spend on Christmas, on a person in 20XX, etc), but overall fairly happy with this app.

### 5/5 — Nice App

*2020-04-23, version 1.8.12*

I love the reminders. It’s great too for knowing age and jotting down gift ideas on the fly.

### 5/5 — C’est parfait

*2020-03-14*

Application très pratique pour ne plus oublier les anniversaires. Je recommande vivement cette application; merci aux concepteurs.

### 5/5 — Best Gift App Ever

*2019-12-22, version 1.8.12*

I’ve been using this app since 2011. It’s the best! Let’s you take pictures so you don’t duplicate gifts. You can add notes, pictures and names of people you buy for. And at the end of each year you it adds the next year. I’ve seen other apps and have tried a few when I thought this app was going away but I come back to this. The format can be a little wonky and not user friendly but once you get the hang of it you’ll never use another gift app. #awesome
