Santa's Bag for Negative User Reviews
✓ Great gift app with the exceptionUpdate: I’ve dropped my star rating to 2 stars for lack of response from the the developer to enable syncing between devices. Out of all the gift apps, this is my favorite. You can pull from your contacts or individually add recipients. I love that you can personalize the stores purchases are made and the best feature other gift apps don’t have, you can tag gifts as stocking stuffers. I would love to give it 5 stars except that it doesn’t sync between devices. This is a really important feature to have and there is no reason not to make it available. I’m aware backup on Dropbox is an option but it doesn’t always work and I still end up entering info in both my phone & iPad. I know I’m not the only user requesting this option. Please make it work..Version: 2.3.2
✓ Latest upgrade and now just crashes on openingVery disappointing-might want to sort it out before Christmas shopping starts!.Version: 2.2.0
✓ Great for the first yearAwesome to track people and presents, but no simple way to clear the gifts from the previous year. I don't want to enter everything again!.Version: 1.5.3
✓ Worked fine till nowUsed this for 3 years, worked well, but now the app won’t open, can’t access my data, seriously considering trying another app if it doesn’t resolve..Version: 2.2.0
✓ *was* Almost perfect!*edited to change from 4 stars to 1* This was a great app, used for several years. Got a new phone this year, and even though this was backed up to iCloud, all of my previous years’ data is gone, no response from support. Disappointed to be sure. ……… I had to replace my old gift app since it wasn’t supported anymore, and after testing several this was the clear winner! Very easy to use, well organized, hits all of the things I like to track. A few minor tweaks and this would be a full 5 stars! One is just a wee cosmetic change...more visual contrast between groups on the recipient page ;)...the pale gray on the group title background is too close to all of that white. Also, rather than just ‘in progress’ and ‘complete’, would love if a person could be taken to a ‘to be wrapped’ and ‘to ship’ status...I’ve worked around that for now by setting up groups (shop, wrap, ship), but would love to be able to click it off easily like the ‘complete’. And last request lol...within the recipient, a ‘santa’ section, to differentiate the gifts coming from Santa for the kiddos ;). Thanks for the great app!!.Version: 2.3.2
✓ Was greatWas a great app. Had everything in it. Then 2 months before Christmas it crashes every time I try to open it. Had to delete the app reinstalled it but still crashes. And yes my phone is up to date!.Version: 2.2.2
✓ 15 stars! (Update...no longer 15 stars😏)I wish I could give this app 15 stars! I love to make lists. This app is something I could've only dreamed of. Every time I think of a feature I wish it had, I poke around...and find it!!! This. Is. GREAT!!! UPDATE: Ok, so I think I came across a much needed feature that I’m not finding. I had taken the dive and purchased this app. As you can read in my original review, I really do love and appreciate what this app offers. But I recently purchased a tablet...an iPad, specifically so it could easily sync with my iPhone. I can't believe it! Such a multi-featured, extremely detailed app, but doesn't allow you to sync with other devices?? Just lost some stars 😢.Version: 2.2.8
✓ Where are updates?Disappointed after paying $5.99 for pro that the last update was 3 years ago. I’ve used the app for all 3 of those years and it was my favorite app for planning and budgeting the holidays. After trying out a dozen other apps (at the time) only a couple came close to the features offered here, despite the sometimes confusing or clunky interface (surprisingly relevant as it’s an app used mostly once a year). In any case, I think it’s time to find an alternative to this app, especially with newer iOS updates eliminating availability of apps not updated to support it..Version: 1.5.3
✓ App won’t open now 🙁Been using app for last couple of years. Updated app and goes to open and then closes 🙁.Version: 2.2.1
✓ Needs Options for Online ShoppingI've used Santa's bag for 3 years now. I still really like the app but I see room for improvement. I did a lot of online shopping this year & the app could really use an update in the status options. "Purchased" is great but with all the gift I ordered I need to keep track of what gifts I have received in the mail. It would be great to pull up a list of the things I am still waiting for..Version: 1.5.3
✓ Great, but missing an obvious featureI love this app. It has done a great job keeping me organized and within budget for Christmas. However. I wish that it had a log in so that more than one person could see what you have purchased and add to the list of things. My mother and I use this app for my kids and it is time consuming having to send her a shared spread sheet, her update her list, then she sends me a spreadsheet to update my list. If we could both log in on the app to the same list and only one person has to enter something and it updates on the other persons site, that would be awesome and I would immediately give 5 stars..Version: 1.5.3
✓ Changed for the worseThis ‘new’ version makes it more difficult to track spending. For example, there is no subtotal for stocking stuffers, nor does the app subtract your budget for each individual as you go. I am constantly pulling a calculator out to do what this app used to do before it was ‘improved’..Version: 2.2.5
✓ Where are my budgets?*update - 2 years later and this still has not been fixed. I love this app, but I do not understand why a simple feature (carrying over recipient budgets from year to year) is no longer an option. Super annoying to have to go back to the previous year to copy them all again every year.* I have used this app for 10 years. I love it, I tell everyone about it. I paid for the pro version years ago. I just went to start my 2020 list and it did not import my recipient budgets from the previous year. That’s one of the reasons I use it, so I know what I spent on people last year without having to enter each one again every year. If you have to set everyone up each year, what would keep someone from trying a competitor app?.Version: 2.3.2
✓ It's great - until you want to use it the following xmas!I used this app last xmas and it worked well for me. Unfortunately it doesn't let you archive last years gifts unless you upgrade to the pro version for $4.99 - which I'm not willing to pay. It's also really hard to delete the gifts individually. So that's it. Won't be using it again this year..Version: 1.5.3
✓ Terms of use policy too vague and long to understandThe old version of this app was great. I deleted it after the new terms of use because it contained so many vague references to things relating to privacy that I can’t know what it’s tracking, what it does with the information, and who it is shared with. I will not support apps that can’t tell me in simple language what they are collecting, and why..Version: 2.2.6
✓ On the right track but needs workWhen I try to add a note the keyboard hides the note section so can’t see what I’m typing. Also, would be nice to be able to make notes about different stores that carry if for price comparisons....Version: 1.5.3
✓ Don't purchasePurchased this last year. Now unable to retrieve data and 'support' don't reply to emails..Version: 1.5.3
✓ DisappointedI have used this app for 4 years now.....downloaded again this year to do my yearly planning; however the save option under the recipients does not work, no way to track progress. Rendering this app useless now. Please update ASAP!.Version: 2.2.2
✓ Name and app logo problematicI've just downloaded this app because it seems like the best one available- I really like it already- however I am fearful my children will see it on my phone as the name and logo are likely to expose a big secret!! Please think of a less incriminating name and logo... much appreciated..Version: 1.5.3
✓ Lost all my infoWas great I used it for a couple of years, had the things I’d bought people previous years in there and lots of future gift ideas that I’d saved but it’s all gone! I contacted the app company and they got back to me right away but they have not retrieved my information 😢my advice pick a reliable app not this one..Version: 2.3.2
✓ DisappointedI loved the idea of this app and spent hours loading info into it on my iPad only to find that the app doesn't sync with other devices !! And it will be my iPhone I have with me when buying gifts. Very annoying when most other apps sync automatically across devices. I've also now got a new iPad and none of the data is stored anywhere so the money spent on the app is worthless because I don't have any of the data and haven't got the time to load it all in again. I've contacted support twice, three days ago and heard nothing back. Having read the FAQs it appears it doesn't back up unless I buy the advanced pack and then it syncs with Dropbox. It still DOESNT sync across devices..Version: 1.5.3
✓ Needs Syncing featureGreat app for staying organized but needs to be able to sync across multiple devices for total efficiency..Version: 2.3.2
✓ Info all gone!I’ve used this app for the past few years (paid for version) but today have found that all previous info has gone! I stored previous years gifts to remind me what I’d bought before, & had all my recipients listed so I knew what I needed to. If it was a free app I’d accept that the details had been cleared, but having paid for the app I’m really not impressed!.Version: 2.3.0
✓ Great app but needs syncing capabilityI like being super organised for Christmas and this is the best gift app I have used so far, but I would like to be able to use the app on my iPhone and iPad and be able to sync between the two. I would like to use the app on my iPad at home & on my iPhone when christmas shopping so I can upload purchases on the go & use the shopping list. I'm not going to pay over $100 for Dropbox so I can sync between devices just for this app..Version: 1.5.2
✓ Lost previous entriesI used this app for a number of years and loved it. With the new update, all of my previous entries disappeard. I used it to keep track of who gets what every year. Now I have no idea what I usually buy/tip for clients. 😞.Version: 2.2.7
