The Christmas Gift List for Negative User Reviews

✓ Passable, but need more optionsLove the app, great substitute for the ole Christmas gift app I had that is no longer available. Can track multiple people and categorize them (not really necessary). Improvements I want that aren’t there include grouping people so that I can log individual gifts fir my married children but then group them so that I know how much I spend on their whole family. Another is splitting a gift between 2 people who will share the gift (husband and wife). So that I can track spend on each person. I would also like my home view to be $$ spent rather than # of gifts purchased. Or al least have the option to choose. Other than my wish list, this app is ok, basically just a glorified spreadsheet with graphics. If they include the options above in a future version, it would be worth so much more. To still make it free to users, your free version could include ads to vendors for “wishlist items” or suggestions for people if you can enter their age, gender, likes, etc..Jillsy1966Version: 1.8

✓ Good but shame I lost everything when upgradedHave been using this for many years but wished I could print list so decided to upgrade to paid version. Annoying Lost all names and gifts stored. Emailed for support and got answer quickly but not being very techie I didn’t understand all of the instructions. What i did manage to do failed so easier to input everything from scratch.JLH4270Version: 1.8.1

✓ Good free app I use yearlyGood app allows you to set overall budget for Christmas and keep track of what you paid and where you bought the gift. Improvements could be made. It would be handy to be able to take pictures of receipts to attach to each Item in case it needs to be returned. Also, once you click on an individual from your list, and then an item on their list, there’s no easy way to go back to that person without having to click people at the bottom and find their name. This app is good that it also lets you set budget for each person. I like it. There may be a better one out there that I am not aware of Because I keep using this one. Just wish couple updates were made..FumicrosoftVersion: 1.8

✓ Not great for sharing lists with other usersStar for nice interface. Second star for easy to use and get started. I paid for the pro version so I could share list with partner. Didn’t work, so I contacted app support. shared Apple family with partner, but he is still unable to import the date from the link I send. At this point his frustrations are so high he is just not going to bother to use the app. Good app if you are just using it yourself, but do not recommend for multiple users. Better off using Google sheets!.JLynnBwnVersion: 1.9.1

✓ UselessBy the time I tried to add a second gift to a person it changed the details of the first to equal the second..Kiwi HaydenVersion: 1.8.1

✓ I liked my first Christmas app betterUnfortunately, the app that I used for so many years needs to be updated by the developer and can’t be used currently. There are so many things that I dislike on this app. I want to set a budget for a group, not just for individual people. I hate how the cursor for an item cost includes a zero in the amount and doesn’t just start with a blank field. When I have edited a gift (both item description and cost), it doesn’t save both edits. You should be able to make all updates on that screen including moving it from Bought to Wrapped. The worst thing is when on a person, you should be able to view the details of a gift and then go back to that same person’s list rather than only having the options to go back to all Gifts or all People. Super disappointed in the features but will continue using for this holiday season since I have entered so many details and muddled through the back and forth already..DP@Christmas2021Version: 1.8.1

✓ Mostly SatisfiedI like having a place to organize gifts. Being able to add a picture, price, and status is fantastic. However, I would like it better if the title of a gift could be reused such as “book” then I can put the title of the book in the description. As it is I have to list 5 books separately. Also, if I’m getting the same thing for two people I have to list the gift twice. I would also like it if I could go back to the person when I update their gift instead of going back to the list of gifts and then having to choose the person again. All that said, overall I do like this app and it meets my basic need to help me remember what I have gotten my family for Christmas (especially my little ones)..Mckay23turtleVersion: 1.5.2

✓ Really wanted To Love This ApWas looking for an ap for Christmas buying but ended up more frustrated and am switching back to my old list. Wanting one my husband And I could use and share easily. This does that great. But I don’t like : -that every time I open the ap it’s on the gift list. Would like the default to be the. People list -don’t like (and reason I am switching back to the old ap) is how the gift name is locked n and only used once. Everyone in my family gets a cost - but they all cost a different price. I don’t want to have to be so detailed in the gift name - want fast entry and focused more on by person than list of gift. This ap has a lot of nice feature, but I’m looking for a tool to manage a true gift list by person and budget and status of get/bought/wrapped gift. Check out The Christmas List as an idea of what works. That Ap is ust not as good with the sharing/syncing as this one seems to be..AsaboVersion: 1.8.1

✓ Trouble with iPadThis app is easy to use, and I like a lot of the features. I don’t like the fact that I have to round all my purchase amounts to the nearest dollar. But my biggest complaint is that it will not work properly on my iPad. I first downloaded the free version, and entered a lot of information. When I upgraded to pro, on my phone and my iPad, the information I had entered into the free version did not transfer. I emailed customer service, and they gave me a suggestion that worked. I was able to get the pro version working on my iPhone, with all of the information intact. Originally, it was working on my iPad as well. However, at this point all of my saved information has disappeared from the pro version on the iPad. No amount of deleting and reinstalling the app has helped. I am glad that it still works on my phone, and that the information has been retained there. But it is frustrating that I cannot use the app on my iPad..Bellajewel NinaVersion: 1.5
