Hintik is an app where the people closest to you hint at gifts instead of guessing them. "What would you like?" is an awkward question to answer straight out. And guessing on your own is a lottery. There's a third way: drop a hint. A HINT GOES TO ONE PERSON To the one you actually want to tell, not to everyone at once. Paste a link and the name, price and photo fill themselves in. Hint at things and at experiences alike: a concert, a dinner, a trip for two. THE SURPRISE STAYS A SURPRISE When someone is preparing a gift for you, it gets marked privately: "bought" or "planned". You won't see it — not the mark, not a sign that it's there. That's how the app is built; it isn't a switch anyone can flip by accident. A WISH LIST YOU'RE HAPPY TO SEND Keep your own list and send its link — it opens for people who don't have the app. Need a separate one for a birthday, a housewarming or your child? Make as many as you like; each gets its own link. NOBODY BUYS THE SAME GIFT TWICE Whoever is getting an item marks it, and everyone else sees that it's taken. The person whose list it is sees none of that. A LIST YOU CAN KEEP TOGETHER Parents keep one for their kids, friends go in on a gift together, a family chips in on one thing. Everyone adds their own, everyone sees the same list. DATES, RIGHT NEXT TO WHAT THE PERSON WANTS Birthdays, anniversaries and occasions of your own. Open a person and you see the date and their wishes at once. Not on Hintik yet? Hint anyway — it waits until they join.
