Giftwise · for iPhone
Birthday reminders that come with a gift idea
Giftwise remembers the dates, reminds you early enough to do something about them, and arrives with ideas for that person — from their interests, their age and the budget you pick.
How it works
- Add your peopleBy hand or from Contacts. Unlimited people, free.
- Get reminded in timeA week ahead, the day before and on the day by default — two weeks or three days ahead if you prefer — plus a Sunday summary of the week ahead.
- Open the reminder to an ideaFive suggestions for that person, never repeating what you already gave.
- Keep the listCollect ideas, paste links, note prices, mark gifts bought and then given, and keep a year-by-year history.
What it looks like
A gift tracker without the spreadsheet
A Christmas or birthday gift tracker is usually a spreadsheet: names down the side, ideas, a budget, bought, wrapped, given. Giftwise is that sheet with the reminders attached — it knows the dates, keeps the ideas per person, and remembers what you gave last year so you do not give it again.
Free, with Pro for more
The free app includes unlimited people and wishlists, reminders, Contacts import and three gift-idea sets a month. Giftwise Pro — monthly, yearly or once for life — adds unlimited ideas, more occasions, budgets and gift history, and PDF export.
Honest about the limits
- Ideas are suggestions. They come from what you tell it about the person — the better the notes, the better the ideas.
- No account, no cloud. Your people, dates and lists stay on your iPhone. Purchases go through the App Store.
