About

Munus

Features

Giving a gift shouldn't be a last-minute scramble. Munus remembers the days that matter to the people you love, and keeps your gift ideas safe until the day arrives. NEVER FORGET A DAY Birthdays, anniversaries, graduations โ€” all in one calendar. We tell you before the day comes, so you're never caught unprepared. Birthdays already saved in your contacts come across in a single tap. WRITE IDEAS DOWN INSTEAD OF REMEMBERING THEM A good gift idea usually arrives at the wrong moment. Save it the moment you see it: paste a shop link and we'll fill in the rest. ONE LIST FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY Create a family group and invite the people you love. Everyone's special days appear in a shared calendar and wish lists are visible to all. Since it's clear who is bringing what, nobody buys the same gift twice. A SURPRISE STAYS A SURPRISE This is the part the app cares about most. You can't see who claimed an item from your own wish list โ€” not because it's hidden in the interface, but because the database never sends you that record. If someone added a surprise idea for you, it never reaches you either. SHARE YOUR OWN LIST Write down what you'd like and send the link. People without the app can open your list in a browser, so nobody has to guess. IN 15 LANGUAGES English, Turkish, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Russian, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian and Finnish. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS Your records are stored tied to your account. They are not sold, not used for advertising and not shared with third parties. You can permanently delete your account and all your data from inside the app.
