Everything I need

I’ve had this app for several years. It does what I need it to do for the holidays and keeps track of peoples assignments so I can make sure no one gets their significant other or the same person 2years in a row. It’s also easy to send everyone their secret Santa assignments via text. I appreciate the wish list feature, but it could be a bit friendlier for older people. Wish we could see all items on our lists instead of having to scroll down.

Wishlist

Have used secret Santa gift exchange for the last 3 years, but this year the invitees were having trouble accessing the Wishlist. I emailed Ashley tonight advise and as a quick as a flash she had given me two options to sort the problem. It all worked well and now everyone can use the Wishlist and hopefully they’ll receive exactly what they’ve asked for. Thanks so much for sorting out for me so quickly.
