You know the feeling. It's the morning of a birthday party and you're scrambling to remember: Did I buy something? Is it wrapped? Where did I put it? GiftFlow puts all of that in one place. Add your people, save gift ideas, set a budget for each person, and track every gift from first thought to hand-delivered. Whether it's Christmas, a birthday, a wedding, or a last-minute baby shower, GiftFlow keeps you organized so you can focus on picking the right gift instead of managing a spreadsheet. TRACK GIFTS LIKE NO OTHER APP Most gift trackers stop at "Bought." GiftFlow gives you six stages: Idea → To Buy → Bought → Arrived → Wrapped → Given Know exactly what's still in your Amazon cart, what's hiding in the closet, and what's ready to hand over. If you order online (and who doesn't?), the Arrived stage alone is worth the download. TWO MODES. ONE APP. Christmas Mode gives you a dedicated holiday dashboard with progress bars, budget meters, and pace tracking so you can see at a glance how close you are to being done. When the holidays are over, switch to Occasions Mode for birthdays, Mother's Day, Father's Day, anniversaries, graduations, weddings, housewarmings, and more. A built-in calendar highlights upcoming gift-giving dates so nothing sneaks up on you. BUDGETS THAT KEEP YOU HONEST Set a spending limit for each person and watch it update as you go. No more tallying receipts in your head or hoping the credit card statement looks okay. You'll see exactly where you stand before you check out. NO ADS. NO LOGIN. NO CLOUD. Your gift list is private. GiftFlow works entirely offline and stores everything on your device. There's no account to create, no data leaving your phone, and no ads interrupting your planning. FEATURES YOU'LL ACTUALLY USE • Attach photos and one-tap store links to any gift • Import contacts to build your list fast • Drag and drop to organize your list your way • Smart shopping view groups gifts by store • Filter and sort by status, store, budget, or person • Tag stores with custom emojis and colors • Export lists as PDF, spreadsheet, or text to share with a co-planner • Dark mode for late-night planning sessions UPGRADED PLANNING WITH GIFTFLOW PRO The free version handles everything most people need. If you want to go further, a single $6.99 purchase unlocks Pro permanently. No subscriptions. • Gift Radar: smart reminders for birthdays, budgets, and deadlines • Group gifting to coordinate and split shared gifts • Spending analytics with year-over-year trends • Gift Memory to track past gifts and avoid repeats • Pace comparison to see if you're ahead of last year • Spouse Mode to hide surprises when sharing your list • Custom themes: 5 presets, 30 accent colors • Advanced filters and custom sort presets GiftFlow was built because every other gift app was either cluttered with ads, stuck behind a login wall, or missing the one feature everyone kept asking for. We built the app those apps should have been. Download GiftFlow and make gift-giving the fun part again.
