## What is HintDrop?

Drop a hint from anywhere. Every store, all in one place. Gift ideas for you, for them, or together. Never miss a birthday. Never guess a gift. Be thoughtful, waste less.

HintDrop is the free wishlist app that works with every store. See something you love? Tap Share in any app or website, choose HintDrop, and it lands on your list with the name and picture. Your family and friends see exactly what you'd love, and you see theirs. No more screenshots in five group chats.

THOUGHTFUL, NOT WASTEFUL
We think we like surprises. Research says we don't: people value the gifts they asked for more. And 3 in 5 of us have been given a Christmas present we didn't want (Censuswide for Finder, 2,000 UK adults, 2024). So asking isn't greedy, it's helpful, and less ends up in a drawer or the bin.

DISCOUNTS FROM BRANDS YOU LOVE
We work with hand-picked partner brands to get you discounts where we can. Save from a partner store and your code is right there.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
- Drop a hint from any store or app: tap Share, then HintDrop
- Everything you love in one place, for birthdays, Christmas and everything in between
- Friends tap "I'm getting this" so nobody doubles up, and you never see who's buying
- Never miss a birthday: import birthdays from your calendar, or send one link so friends add their own
- Chip in together on bigger gifts
- Plan a shared list for the big days, like Mum's 60th or the family Christmas
- Free Secret Santa generator, where every player gets their own wishlist so nobody has to guess
- Stuck for ideas? Browse the gift shop

Keep any list private and share it only with the people you choose. We never sell your data.
