Giftful 4+

Good app, one minor inconvenience

Just downloaded, really enjoying the app so far. Pretty straightforward to use, share lists, add items manually & with links, etc.

Being able to “claim” gifts without the recipient seeing was my core reason for downloading and this works great.

My one gripe thus far is that, when pasting a link from a website, probably 65% of the time the app auto fills with completely incorrect photo options. For instance, on a whiskey website with the whiskey bottle front and center, a huge photo, the app auto selects a photo of a dress (assuming from an ad?) and a completely different whiskey shown elsewhere on the page as a “related item” as my “photo options” for the gift. So I have to manually take, crop, and upload a screenshot for the photo to be correct. I think some sort of relative photo size qualifier/filter would be helpful for the app to more accurately auto select the right photos from the web page, as the item in question will almost always be the largest photo on the page.

Also it’s best to click the giftful button using the share icon in the web browser or the chrome extension if using it on the web!

Great app! Needs some updates

I’ve loved this app! I’ve had it for a few years now and it has made it so much easier with wishlists and tracking items I want to buy later. I appreciate the time frames you can add to lists, archive options, private options, and adding friends. They’ve done really well correcting any bugs over time. The only thing I have been really frustrated about is how long it takes to edit lists. I wish it had a feature similar to photos or Pinterest where you can select multiple items and move them to one location. Instead you have to select the item, edit, move, and keep doing this until you’re done. I also wish you could categorize things. Health, clothes, etc while also categorizing price. If you have a long list people aren’t going to scroll the entire thing and it’s hard to see if you’ve added the same thing twice. Some people just haven’t wanted to download the app so I wish there was a way around that, but I personally think it’s been a great way around making lists in other ways.

A Family Favorite

Our family is now spread out in different cities and states and Giftful has been amazing when those special moments come. When it’s time to purchase a gift that is meaningful or a special occasion, sometimes gift cards just don’t seem personal enough. Giftful helps us know some of the secret wishes that others may have and not buy for themselves; that makes the gift even more special to give.

Giftful is so easy to use as it sets up links for you, so you just click on the picture and “there you are”! You place your order and done! This has been a great tool during CoVid and when someone is long distance. If there is ever an issue with the app it gets corrected quickly and your back to shopping for that special person. The creators of this app came up with a brilliant idea!
