This is great!! :) ### 5/5 — Simply Amazing *2024-12-17* I’m new to gift giving thing, as it’s not usual in our area but this app makes it so much fun to find anything for anyone. 5 star! 🌟⚡️🎁 ### 5/5 — Amazing *2024-12-07, version 1.0.7* So helpful, easy and amazing don’t miss out 😎 ### 5/5 — Love this *2024-11-22* As someone who procrastinates and never has a good answer about what gift I want, this is godsend. Especially around the holidays and birthdays. Great app! ### 5/5 — Gifting Made Easy *2024-11-13* I absolutely love using this app for all the special occasions in my life! My family and friends have really embraced it too. It’s not just for Christmas — it’s perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, or even just for surprising someone with a fun gift. The best part is how easy it is to use. It takes all the guesswork out of gift-giving, making it super simple to find something they'll actually love. ### 5/5 — New to Gift List *2024-11-12* I’ll be honest, I had to sign up because of my families annual Kris Kringle. In the past, I we would just text gift ideas. It was a pain to go through the text messages to see what people wanted. Now it’s on the site and makes it so much easier. ### 5/5 — Awesome for Secret Santa *2024-11-08* Just found this app and it’s perfect for listing your Secret Santa gift choices. No more having to guess what your match wants for their gift, or getting something you don’t like. Wicked easy to add to my list. ### 5/5 — Game changer! *2024-11-07* Have used this app (and website) for the last few years and it has made my shopping journey simpler and more fun, both for myself and my friends/family. Highly recommend using this! ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2024-11-07* Used this for our Christmas lists last year as a family and was a hit. Excited that it is now in app format, just in time for the holiday season! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — It won't even register my birthday! *2026-04-07, version 1.0.44* It automatically sets itself back to the current date, and I can't make an account because of it. Please patch this! ### 1/5 — Can’t login *2025-10-30, version 1.0.31* I created an account and it won’t let me log in, keeps going back and fourth from login to sign up ### 1/5 — Unable to log in *2025-10-29, version 1.0.31* Downloaded the app. Created account with my email, Apple ID, google id. All of them puts me in an unending loop from sign up screen to log in screen. Nothing happens beyond that. Please fix this bug! ### 1/5 — Couldn’t even login *2025-10-27* Tried to create an account. I hit sign up after putting in my info and then took me to the login page. So I put the information that I just signed up with and it took me back to the sign-up page. even if I put my information in the sign-up page, it says this accounts already been created, yet it won’t let me log in. So long story short, login takes me back to signup where I can put info in again or click “already have an account? Login here” and repeat never letting me actually login. **Developer response:** Hi - we're so sorry to hear you had issues, but everything should be resolved in the most recent app update. Please reach back out to us at support@giftlist.com if you're still having any issues. Thank you, Team GiftList ### 1/5 — Confusing *2025-07-21* So when I was looking at the app it said 4+ and then when I downloaded the app it said 13+ I’m turning 13 in a few months and was really disappointed that I couldn’t make an account! Please fix this. ### 2/5 — Great when it works, but it doesn’t *2025-11-09* Where do I start.. When it works, it is seamless. And then it gets hella buggy. Misses adding a picture, doesn’t include a link, doesn’t save, can’t click on my list, can’t click on a friend’s list, can’t find my or my friend’s lists at all, won’t open, freezes up completely.. Honestly when it does work depending on the day I will copy everything to Google Sheets so I don’t lose everything. Great idea, poor execution ### 4/5 — Only one thing I didn’t like *2026-08-21* I am very new to giftlsit but I will say it is very useful but trying to search things up through the app is much harder then just finding it online and copying the link. Also, it asked for my address and I don’t want that I just want to have all the things I want in one place. **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! You can use the in app browser on the "Add gift" tab to search for any product or website and add directly from there. For example, start at google.com and just search for whatever product you like. Also, you don't need to give an address. Most people use GiftList as a registry so we allow you to input a shipping address or custom instructions so friends and family know where to send your gifts. This is good feedback though and we'll add an option soon for people who just want to use GiftList for a personal wishlist and don't have intent to share it. Please reach out to us directly at support@giftlist.com if you have any other feedback or questions. - Team GiftList ### 4/5 — Good until now *2024-11-30* Hi! I absolutely love Gift List!

It lets me pick for all type of stores without even having to go to a different tab! I would highly recommend this app! ### 5/5 — Love GiftList ❤️ *2025-11-15* GiftList is the perfect app for creating holiday wishlists! I love that you can add items while you browse the web in the app. And family and friends don’t need an account to view your list and reserve items. ### 5/5 — Very happy with it! GiftList > Amazon wishlists *2025-11-12, version 1.0.36* Every year family asks what my kids want for Christmas and love when I send them a list. Years prior I would always send an Amazon wish list but hated how I was only stuck to put things on sold by Amazon. Now that my kids are getting older and they are getting more specific than what they want which encompasses things beyond just Amazon I used ChatGPT to search for the perfect Wish list app and this one kept popping up. I tried two before this one and ultimately went with giftlist and I am so happy I did. It's really easy to use, the layout is clean and simple. Really love it so far! ### 5/5 — LOVE *2025-11-12* Best app for any type of wishlist. This list is so easy to follow even my dad can successfully get what I want for Christmas without having to ask me. I LOVE gift list ### 5/5 — Love this app *2025-11-06* This app has come in handy for this mom of 5 & their spouses. I’m all about making life easier 🙌🏽 ### 5/5 — Finally! *2025-10-30, version 1.0.31* I had been lamenting for awhile that no gift registry exists that you can add anything to (not limited to Amazon or a single site or a baby or wedding registry) and then I stumbled upon GiftList. It’s SO helpful. Now I can add things from anywhere. I love that my husband’s & daughter’s lists are linked to mine and how easy it is to search & find my list (take a hint, Amazon!!). 10/10 recommend this site/app!!! ### 5/5 — Do not download this app *2025-10-22* I spend hours creating my lists for my husband and I and loved how the app looked and the gift ideas it came up with and today I went to add something and it deleted all of my lists- I have restarted account and nothing helps. Very disappointing **Developer response:** Hi - we apologize if you experienced any issues while our site was down temporarily for maintenance yesterday.
