Stuck on what to get someone? Tell Truly who it's for, the event, your budget and what they love, and get gift ideas that actually fit. Every idea comes with the reason it suits them, even for the dad who says he wants nothing. Giftruly is the gift app for the whole year: gift ideas when you need them, birthday reminders before you need them, and Christmas, Secret Santa and wishlists in the same place. No account needed. Want one? It's free, and it keeps your phone and giftruly.com in sync. GIFT IDEAS THAT ACTUALLY FIT • Truly asks four quick questions: who, the event, the budget, what they love. Or describe them in your own words • Every idea comes with a reason, not just a product • Tweak them in a tap: cheaper, splurge, more personal, experiences, surprise me • Or swipe through 2,000+ gift ideas: right to save, left to pass • 200+ gift guides: for Mom, Dad, teens, coworkers, gamers… CHRISTMAS, ALL IN ONE PLACE Who's on your list, an idea for each, and where it's at: to buy, bought, wrapped, given. Set one Christmas budget, share it out person by person, and see what's left. GET TO KNOW YOUR PEOPLE A page for everyone you buy for: what they love, what they mentioned, their sizes, the gifts you're planning and the ones you've given, so you never give the same thing twice. SECRET SANTA IN 30 SECONDS Add your name, a budget and the day, then share one link in the group chat, or send each person their own. Nobody has to sign up or download anything: it opens in the app or in a browser. Keep couples apart, write your wishes, and ask your person questions anonymously. Everyone unwraps only their own name, and not even the organizer sees the whole list. All at the same table? Draw on one phone and pass it around. BIRTHDAY REMINDERS THAT REMEMBER • Birthdays, anniversaries, name days, weddings, graduations, even the dog's adoption day • Bring birthdays in from your contacts in one go • Reminders come with what matters: "You noted: her garden gloves have holes", or the gift you already planned • The big ones (a 60th, a 25th anniversary) get a heads-up three weeks out • Nothing planned two days before? Last-minute ideas that don't need shipping YOUR PHONE AND THE WEBSITE, IN SYNC An account is optional. Sign in with Apple, Google or a code by email (no password, ever), and the same people, events and gifts are on your phone and on giftruly.com. Plan with your household: gifts for each other stay hidden. WISHLISTS AND GROUP GIFTS Share your wishlist: family picks what they'll give, and nothing gets bought twice. Collecting for a group gift? Everyone sees their share, you see who's paid, and the money goes straight to you, never through Giftruly. HOW DID IT LAND? One tap after the day: loved it, liked it, meh, or didn't land. Giftruly keeps it with the gift, so next year starts smarter. The thank-yous you still owe are right there, and Truly can write them with you. AND THE LITTLE THINGS • Write the card: the right words for a birthday, a 60th or a thank-you • Can't decide? This or that picks a winner, two at a time • Your year in gifts • Dark mode, and a Calm mode with less motion WHAT STAYS ON YOUR PHONE Without an account, your people, dates, notes, gifts and budgets stay only on your phone; with one, they sync with giftruly.com. Truly's ideas and what you share (Secret Santa, wishlists, group gifts) go through giftruly.com. Download or delete everything in Settings, any time. Prices are estimates.

Forgot your friend's kid's name again? Blanked on what a client told you last time? Kinfolio keeps what matters about the people in your life — names, dates, what you talked about — and quietly reminds you before you meet or when it's time to write. A private personal CRM for family, friends and everyone your work depends on: no account, your data stays on your device. REMEMBER WHAT MATTERS • Kids' and partner's names, interests, allergies, work, gift ideas — pin the important ones to the top of the card • A 30-second note right after you talk: what you discussed and what to ask next time • Search by anything: "who snowboards?" • See how your people are connected A QUIET BRIEFING BEFORE YOU MEET • An hour before a meeting in your calendar, Kinfolio tells you who you're meeting, what matters to them and what to ask • Works for one-on-ones and group meetings STAY IN TOUCH • Set how often you want to hear from each person and get a gentle nudge when it's time to write • The Today screen shows upcoming dates and who hasn't heard from you in a while DATES THAT MATTER • Birthdays, anniversaries, name days, work anniversaries and any date that matters, with a reminder a few days ahead • A home-screen widget with upcoming dates and people it's time to write to • Import birthdays straight from your contacts FOR FAMILY, FRIENDS AND YOUR NETWORK • Import contacts: job title and company become a fact on the card • Relationships like "colleague" and "introduced by", tags for clients, partners and community • Follow-ups in the journal, so a promise to a partner isn't lost YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS • No account, no ads, no data selling.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Giftruly at none against Kinfolio's 2. Kinfolio's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 10 days). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
