The IOS App has a companion website that runs in your Safari browser or on your phone or computer desktop with all the same data and features. You and your family can use Giftster from any phone, tablet or computer to view and shop lists.
“I searched iTunes and played around with a few different apps and the one wish list app that has really worked for me that I am loving is called Giftster…was not only easy for me to use but easy for my family to use as well.” -- Laura Wittmann, orgjunkie.com

How Giftster works
With Giftster you become part of a small social network connecting family and close friends around gift giving occasions.
If this is your first time using Giftster, you won't have any family or friends connected yet.
Once you connect one or more of your family into a group, each family member logs in to update their own wish lists, and to view and reserve gifts on each other’s lists.
- Everyone in your family can connect to you with this App - we built a version of Giftster that runs on just about every device.
- Giftster instantly synchronizes changes to all devices, including your account at giftster.com.
- Requires internet access via cellular data or wifi to operate.

Coach Krys,
Must have app
If you ever have to make a gift list, this is a MUST have app. Whether it’s for birthdays, holidays, or just a wish list, it is the best way to share with friends and family. In my house, we have 3 kids, 2 sets of grandparents and an uncle all to shop for. My mom insists on buying everything in July while others wait until the last minute. This app allows me to easily add something I’ve found online or when the kids see something they want. And it’s always there until you take it off. I love that it tells you who bought the item, although only on desktop…..I wish it would do mobile as I’m always on the app on my phone. It won’t allow you to see what’s been purchased from your own list, so it’s always a surprise.
Is the app perfect? Nope, but it still a Godsend!!! Highly recommend.

ldralsto1,
Love this app!
I love this app! It’s awesome to use year round for birthdays and holidays! It helps me keep track of things I eventually want to get so I keep a personal list just for me on here too. We have been using it for over 5yrs now for both sides of our families. They are quick to respond and always answer my questions. The only small thing that drives me nuts is with secret Santa it seems like if I get one person one year the next year my spouse gets the same person. But there are ways around it by choosing the add draw exclusions option. The other small thing is you can’t suggest items for people if they just create their profile but haven’t created a list yet. We have a few elderly folks that don’t always want to put stuff on their list so they just create a profile so we can do the draw but if they don’t create a list we can’t suggest gifts for those that got that person. Other than that the app is awesome! ❤️ love ❤️ love it!
JollyJoseph,
Good app for gifting. Needs some improvement though.
My family has been using this app for a number of years for birthdays and Christmas. The user interface has not been visually updated after all these years and really needs to be as it is a bit bland looking and still has usability glitches that have existed since its launch. Scrolling is frequently glitchy and jerky, for example. The colors need a bit more vibrancy. It’s sort of drab looking. However, we’ve got it to do what it was made to do.
We need to be able to add images that reside on our phones as another example. I have tried many times to get an image for a product but have to use the web site link and the app most times never finds the image or finds the incorrect image. So much simpler to just add an image.
As I said, good app, but some visual and usability improvements needed. I want to give it a 5 so please do improvements. I have been tasked by my family to find another app to replace this aging app. <>

Great Concept, but VERY Glitchy
Listen, I love this app because there’s not really anything like it out there, but as soon as a competitor comes along with an app that really works, I’ll move on, no question.
Good luck trying to upload a photo or getting the “fetch” feature to work the way it’s supposed to. I’d say 75% of the time I can’t even get it to pull up the upload photo option, and the few times it does work, it doesn’t actually upload anything.
The fetch data option usually works, but occasionally it pulls in photos of the wrong product...which then requires you to save you own photo and manually upload it (and you already read how that goes).
If you’re good with manually writing in everything and trust that your family/friends will find the item that way, then you should be fine. But if your family is anything like mine and you need photos to help them out, just be aware that you’re in for a frustrating time.

Used to love this app—very glitchy now
I used to love this app for giving family members ideas for birthday gift for the kids. Regarding gift exchanges, it’s okay. My biggest complaint is that I have gotten the same family member 3 out of the 5 years that we have been using it. This is a regular occurrence for everyone else in the family, even when you maximize settings to avoid repeat picks.
Also, in the past couple of months, the app has become incredibly glitchy. I have to sign into the app after every time I close it. It freezes a lot. I frequently cannot access lists in general and accessing my child accounts is even more unreliable. I just get blank pages or missing lists.
Giftster, you could be great. Please fix these glitches.

Reliable, Clever, and Easy To Use!
I'm a busy mom and this has decreased the chaos at Christmas time like you wouldn't believe! Even the people in our family who don't have smartphones can use it with the website and now we can get the perfect gift for them every time! It's simple, clean design makes it easy for the grandparents to use. Not only does it have lists that you can reserve and purchase items from, but they also have a gift preferences page that can help you learn more about things they may want that aren't on the list. So many other great features too! I can't tell you how much this has helped my family. After searching and searching for something like this I finally found Giftster and can easily say it's the best wish list/gift registry there is out there!

Game changer
The Giftster app takes the guess work out of gift giving and prevents duplicate purchases. I like that you can create a profile of your preferences and sizes in case someone wants to buy items not on your list. The ranking feature lets everyone know what you most hope to receive. I use the item description section to mention coupons or sales that may be coming up. If I know someone in my group really wants something they haven’t included on their list, I can add a suggestion to their list that’s not visible to them. I also create private lists of gifts I plan to buy for people with links so I don’t forget where I saw something. I do wish there was more color contrast between the purchased and available items but it’s a small criticism of very good app.
golferlady48,
Awesome!
My whole family and extended family have used this app for Xmas 201. It has been such a timesaver and really made gift giving easier than ever. You know the gift you’re giving is something they really want because with Gifster they make their own list. You can see if someone else has already claimed the gift, (purchased it), so no longer any doubling up on the same present, best part is the recipient cannot see what has been purchased. Links can be added to the gift list making it easy to buy the correct item along with the cost so you know how much you are spending. There are so many more cool features I could go on and on but you get the idea. I highly recommend this app if you need a way to simplify gift giving within a group.

Making shopping easy
I don’t know how I ever shopped before Giftster. Since I’ve found Giftster, this site/app has made shopping so easy.
I invite my family and friends to join my group. I make a wish list. They make wish lists. Then we shop. We mark our items off the Giftster lists that we are purchasing for each other, so others don’t buy the same thing, but the list owner still stays surprised. You can then purchase the gifts from any online or retail store.
You can even start a Secret Santa exchange!
Giftster is so helpful not only for Christmas, but birthdays, bridal and baby showers, etc. I can bring up my app on my phone while out shopping and check lists.
Best of all, Giftster is free! If you need help getting organized this holiday season, check out Giftster!

It solves so many problems
My family started using this years ago, and it’s solved so many problems.
You can assign people to multiple groups, but they only have to make one list. We’ve got one group for my relatives and another one for my husband’s relatives. This keeps the groups separate but not my list. No longer need to divide up a list in hesitation of duplication because both groups see the same list.
You can tag items as purchased as well as on hold (which you can release at any time), so it’s easy for other people to determine what’s left. And the list owner can’t see any of the claims; they just update the list as needed.
Items can be linked to websites for easy purchasing options, but items don’t have to be found online. I’ve listed backrubs as an item. And once you receive items, you can mark them accordingly, so you don’t need to make a new list each year.
With the reminders feature, you get heads up for both upcoming events and reminders to update your own lists.
And parents can list their dependents (children/pets) on their behalf. Super easy to share kid info like clothing sizes and current interests with family members.
