Almost perfect
I like that I can create multiple gifts per person and it syncs across devices. It also pre-populate recipients from repeating holidays (for Christmas 2023 and included all the recipients from Christmas 2022).
My wishlist, and these are features I would pay for:
-search function for gifts already entered
-sync to a website so I can enter and edit information from my computer as well as on the app
-duplicate ALL of the info from a selected gift, not just some fields
-not a must-have, but would be nice, to set a giver as well as a recipient. I track gifts that my kids give and it would be so helpful to see who has shopping left to do.

Has nearly everything I need
I’ve used this for Christmas, birthdays, and other gifts for 4 years. This yer I downloaded the “latest and greatest” gift app, figuring it would improve on Gifted. While it DID sync between my Apple devices, a feature Gifted unfortunately lacks, it didn’t provide all the functionality Gifted does. I haven’t found a better app than Gifted in the last 4 years.
I can keep separate lists and budgets for stocking stuffers and Christmas gifts, group families by using a 1, 2, 3 etc in front the names for each family, and keep track of budgets. It allows me to keep track of the gifts I’ve stashed throughout the year and include a picture and note to remind me where the gift is and who I had in mind for it. I can check and edit gifts for past, present, and future. It keeps track of ideas, costs, and shows the progress of each gift: idea, need it, ordered, have it, gifted. The only things it lacks are the ability to sync between my ipad and iphone and a way to do occasional gifts, the ones that aren’t repetitive, without clogging up my lists with tons of names.

App doesn't even open
Wish I could give this zero stars. Spent 2.99 and the app doesn't even open when clicked on. Buyer beware!
Great app, missing one feature
I do really love this app and use it all year. The one feature that would make it perfect is the ability to copy and paste all the gifts from one event to the next occurrence all at once. I buy the same number of gifts for the same people every time, especially at Christmas, and it would save me so much time to just edit what is already there rather than duplicating one at time or creating from scratch.

Web page extension
I love this app but it desperately needs a website extension option! It would make online shopping so much easier.
Great Gift Tracker!
I am a year around shopper for holidays, birthdays and so forth. This app is wonderful. Easy to use and easy to follow. Helps me manage my money and what gifts I have for people that I care about! Try it!
Not as user-friendly as it sounds
There is no place in the app to find the family sharing which was a plus when I bought the app. In order to put in past gifts for birthdays you have to re-enter the person that is already probably in your birthday list. Contacting support is impossible to get a response even after two times.
Helpful!
I am one full year into using this app and find it VERY helpful! It’s a great way to stay organized with gift purchases, helping me remember what’s still left to buy or what might be hiding in a closet at home. My only request this Christmas season is that along the line of “idea, need it, ordered, have it, gifted” there was also a tab for “wrapped”. I could only get one or two presents wrapped at a time and would find this addition useful. Thank you for this tool!

LIFE-CHANGING
I love this app. I shop year round and have over a dozen family members to shop for for Christmas, birthdays, anniversaries, Mother’s Day/father’s day etc. This app makes it so easy to track ideas, purchases and budgets! I love it! The only feature I could add is one more “step” between “have it” and “gifted:” there needs to be a “wrapped” step! Thanks for making the holidays a little less stressful!

Avoiding duplication
After I gave a son the same gift 2years running, I decided to keep track: 2 kids, 3 grandkids, 1 great grand, 1 sister and her spouse, 1sweetheart, several friends -- memory just can't handle that many presents accurately. This app is simple, clear, and very easy to use.
I'm just glad I'm not my cousin: She
and her spouse have between them 7 adult children, all of whom are married and, if I count correctly, all of these couples have at least one child. If she doesn't have this app, she needs it.

Lifesaver
As someone who hides gifts from the family then forgets what or where it is - this app is a lifesaver. My only wish is that it would sort by person and by occasion - is that possible?
My gift lists in one place!
I’ve always had several post-its, emails, texts, and misc. lists holding all my Christmas/birthday gift ideas floating around. This year, I decided to get organized and found this great app!
I love having all my lists in one place. There are separate lists for people, events, and the gifts themselves. It’s easy to assign gifts to people and/or events. And you can easily unassign the gifts from events (especially if you’re like me and buy too much so you need to hold something back for a future birthday/graduation/anniversary). The status slider bar makes it easy to keep track of ideas vs something you’ve decided to buy.
While the app has a budget tracking feature, it’s clunky and could be so much better, which is why I gave the app four stars. I’ve reached out to the developers with my ideas on this so we’ll see if I’m able to improve my rating.

Nice app
I really like this app. Better than the other gift tracking apps I’ve seen. Would like to see a gift status of wrapped & one for mailed.
Love it
I love having this app to keep track of our gift giving
LOVE THIS APP!
I shop year round for Christmas, and no longer have to keep up with a paper list in my planner. I love the fact that the app also tracks other of events such as birthdays and anniversaries. This is why I chose this app when comparing it with others. The only function that I would like to have added is if it would have option show gift status such as “wrapped.” Definitely a must have app for gift giving!

Needs updating
Added a star to my previous review since the dev added backup capability. However, the UI is still really outdated and kind of clunky. Navigating within the app is cumbersome and requires too many steps. It could also use better organization; when viewing past gifts for people they aren't in any type of order - dates and occasions are all mixed together at random, making it too difficult to find anything.

Response from developer
Thanks for using Gifted, and we appreciate your feedback. Gifted now has a Backup/Restore feature to export your data, using your choice of Dropbox, Google Drive, iCloud Storage, and more. You can also share your backup via Airdrop, email, etc. And, as always, when setting up a new iPhone, your Gifted data can be restored from your old iPhone using iCloud Backup/Restore. Happy gifting!
Great app for Organizing gifts!
Keeps you informed of upcoming events and allows tracking of gift ideas and previously given gifts. This app is a must have for Moms, who always seem to get stuck with “gift duty”, makes it effortless!
I've been using it for years
I'm compelled to come give a review because I wrote to the developer with a couple minor questions about the interface and got a personal letter complete with detailed, step by step tutorials to address my questions. I'm very impressed with that level of care for their customers.
As for the product, it is super helpful for organizing and keeping track of where you stand when you have a lot of people to get gifts for. I find each year I have to fiddle around about before I remember that gifts not only get assigned to a person but to an event.
I like tracking the stages a gift goes through: idea, need it, ordered, have it, gifted.
Remember to see it through to the end or next year you will have lots of ungifted gifts around.
Highly recommend.

Very helpful
This app helps organize gift ideas and purchases. It would be nice if an update added the capability to customize the location of gifts after you receive them instead of one answer if “gift closet,” especially for Christmas when tracking hiding spots is important.
Great gift list - not just for Christmas
Great app I plan to use it year round to record gift ideas as they come to me. I like being able to record people's likes and interests as well as dislikes which I use to record food allergies or that some one is a non drinker. I do find that needing to add duplicates of a gift an awkward way to handle but can live with it. Developer is VERY responsive to suggestions in a positive way.
