User reviews

Love it

I love this app even more. I left a review about a critical issue and the developer promptly responded and fixed it. Thank you!!

The app is once again working like a charm and does everything I want in a gift tracker. I especially like the ability to add photos and the editable database of store names to track where you purchased a gift from. It’s also easy to display and monitor your spending by groups. No other gift tracking app I looked at has all these features except this one. 🙂

Perfect

This app does everything I need. I used it last year and discovered I can archive last Christmas and reuse my groups and people! So easy!! My only wish is that it synced to my mac computer too. Thank you!

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.

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.
