Great app but can’t migrate to new phone

I absolutely love this app. I’ve been using it since 2010 and really can’t say enough wonderful things about it. Until now. I got a new phone and for crazy reasons, had to reinstall all my apps from scratch rather than restore from a backup. There is no way to export data from Christmas list on the old phone so that I can import it on the new phone. And Support has not responded to my request. If I get an answer, I’ll let you know.

Amazing App

I have used this app for several years. I love how it keeps me organized and in budget

Fantastic budget tool

I love this app so much! I’ve been using it for several years and it allows me to easily keep track of all my purchases, especially as I buy things earlier in the year.

My Personal Assistant to the Holidays

I cannot survive the holidays without this app! I’ve used this app the past 10 Christmases- it keeps me on track and organized and can quickly monitor my purchases, budget, custom buying groups & archives my gift lists too. So intuitive and easy to use. Very UX friendly.

Easy way to track gifts

There are a lot of options out there, but this app has been just what I needed. It’s intuitive!It has multiple ways to enter gifts, there are options for purchased, wrapped & to do, and there are ways to see all items from each category per recipient or for all. Gifts can be archived year to year. It’s perfect!
