### 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

### 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.

### 4/5 — Useful app

*2019-11-01, version 1.8.12*

I find this really useful. Great visual way to see who’s birthday is up next. A few features I’d like to see a card list as apposed to presents. And a way to group a family. And a way to record what presents you received to write thanks.

### 3/5 — Ein bisschen in die Jahre gekommen.

*2019-10-19*

Die App ist sehr praktisch, aber das Design ist in die Jahre gekostet

### 4/5 — Love it! (Except 2 details)

*2019-07-18, version 1.8.11*

1. I can’t find how to delete an item that has been purchased.
2. I REALLY wish there was a budgeting tool built into this.  So you can create a budget per person, per occasion, and then it could show a balance as you purchase.

### 5/5 — Very useful

*2019-06-13, version 1.8.10*

Makes my life so much easier when organising gifts for people

### 2/5 — Deleted all dates with update

*2019-05-10, version 1.8.10*

I love this app and have used it for 2-3 years. I just updated the app this morning though and all of my information was deleted. It’s like I’m starting over. What happened?!?

### 5/5 — Good App

*2019-01-06*

Good App

### 5/5 — fantastic

*2018-12-23, version 1.8.10*

used for years and love it

### 4/5 — Good App

*2018-08-20, version 1.8.8*

Helpful app for planning and keeping records, and I like the presentation of it.

Two things would help make it better:
- able to add more events, eg. Father’s Day / Mother’s Day
- backup options would help - I continue to use this app but have lost data when changing phones from time to time.

### 5/5 — All ideas in one place

*2018-04-08, version 1.8.8*

This app is great. I can have ideas listed as I go thru the yr. Makes the holidays and birthdays so much easier. Recommend it highly!

### 4/5 — Very helpful app

*2018-02-14, version 1.8.8*

I’ve had this app for a number of years and it’s an amazing tool. I am hopeful that they will update it soon as I am now unable to upload pictures of gifts and people that I could in the past. This is the only reason it gets a 4/5

### 4/5 — Love this app!

*2018-02-12, version 1.8.8*

This is my favorite app for tracking gifts, and I was so excited to see you made recent updates.  

Please add the ability to use across multiple devices.  This would make it a 5 star rating hands down!!

Also, fingerprint recognition to unlock would be nice.  Thanks!

### 2/5 — 😟

*2017-12-02*

Хорошее было приложение. Однако, по всей видимости, его перестали сопровождать... К сожалению, фотографии теперь прикрепить нельзя.

### 5/5 — Please fix photo upload option

*2017-11-25, version 1.8.6*

Great app but stopped letting me upload photos 😦

### 4/5 — Great app

*2017-11-24*

Love this app - recently there is an issue to add a picture for a bought present however I’m sure it’ll get fixed soon. 
Could be better if the dates appeared on the list too (have to edit the person’s details to read their date of birth for example).

### 3/5 — Can’t load photos!

*2017-11-06, version 1.8.6*

Good app but can’t access photos. Just goes to a blank screen.

### 1/5 — Inutile

*2022-05-11*

Plus de mise à jour, application abandonnée.

### 1/5 — 👎

*2018-06-01*

Nul

### 1/5 — No back up lost all data

*2017-11-24, version 1.8.6*

All data disappeared for the last 5 years!  Good idea but now have no record of what I bought anyone. 

 I had been using it to record coins as part of a set that I was giving my father in law... and now have no idea what coins I have bought.

Also, lost the memories of what gift I bought my own children.... it is amazing how easy it is to forget who bought what.

### 1/5 — WELL... :/

*2016-08-13, version 1.8.6*

Used to love this app, used it all the time then deleted it to save some space on my phone. just downloaded te newest version and everytime I try to connect to facebook it says it failed, and to please log in and try again.. but it gives you NO PLACE to log in AT.... really? I used this basic function before, but not it's not working and I am SO not inputting everyones birthdates by hand. No way. New Gift Plan App FAIL!

### 1/5 — Won't connect to my Facebook account.

*2016-07-21, version 1.8.6*

What's the point if this basic function doesn't work?

### 1/5 — M

*2016-01-06, version 1.8.6*

Doesn't sync. Freezes a lot

### 1/5 — Schlecht! Keine Weiterentwicklung

*2015-10-05*

Die App wird nicht mehr weiterentwickelt. Der Login zu Facebook klappt nicht mehr. Schade, war eigentlich mal eine praktische App

### 1/5 — No update in over a year

*2015-09-04, version 1.8.6*

Looks like this project is lost. Like the app but it's missing a lot. Sad that this app seems dead. Going to delete it and look elsewhere.

### 1/5 — Nicht kaufen / don't buy it!

*2015-02-20*

Updates kommen alle paar Jahre und beheben dann längst nicht alle Fehler, obwohl die App es aufgrund einiger Bugs bitter nötig hätte. Dafür muss man kein Geld ausgeben.

### 1/5 — Was a good app but without sync it's useless

*2015-01-30, version 1.8.6*

Can't sync so had to abandon. Can't export content so will have to start from scratch in a different app and manually enter records of past gifts.

### 5/5 — Brilliant help with gifting!

*2021-12-07, version 1.8.12*

This app helps me so much to keep track of my gifting at Christmas time-I love it!

### 5/5 — Beautiful app

*2021-08-18, version 1.8.12*

Great app. Works perfectly and it keeps updating itself every year.

### 5/5 — Great idea

*2021-06-16, version 1.8.12*

This app helps me keep on track. Thank you

### 5/5 — Use every year

*2020-10-13, version 1.8.12*

Use app every year to do my Christmas shopping it great!

### 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

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2019-12-21, version 1.8.12*

I really love this app! It is so helpful in remembering important birthdays, anniversaries and other special events. It even allows me to put in complete dates so that I can know the age of that special individual in case I lack that knowledge. I love that I can also write in ideas that person may have mentioned. It also lets me set reminders ahead of time for each special person so that there is no way to not remember. I couldn’t be happier with this app.

### 5/5 — Beste Geschenke-Organisations-App

*2019-11-06*

Dies ist die mit Abstand beste App um Geschenke/Ideen zu organisieren. Man kann eingeben und auch sehen was für wen zu welchem Anlass gedacht ist, ob es eine Idee ist, gekauft oder verschenkt ist, den Betrag, Fotos, Url,...

Das einzige was mir wirklich sehr fehlt ist die Möglichkeit die Listen zw. den Geräten zu synchronisieren (Iphone&Ipad). 

Daher habe ich in letzter Zeit nochmal verschiedene andere Geschenke Apps getestet, aber keine andere kommt an diese von der Verwaltung und Darstellung heran.

Verbesserungsvorschläge:
-Synchronisation über ICloud zw. verschiedenen Geräten oder die Möglichkeit des Daten Ex-&Imports via Mail 
- Sprache Deutsch
- evtl. modernisiertes Design

### 5/5 — Gift plan

*2019-09-22*

J’utilise cette application depuis de nombreuses années avec satisfaction is des années et j’en suis très satisfait
