How can we help?
Answers about making wishlists, sharing them and booking gifts.
Getting started
- How does Wishes work?
Make a wishlist, add what you'd love from any store, share one link, and friends book gifts so nobody buys the same thing twice.
- How do I make a wishlist?
Tap New wishlist in the Wishes app, or start one on the web at wishes.app/new. Name it, pick a theme and add your first wish.
- How do I add wishes to my wishlist?
Paste a link from any store, share a page to Wishes from another app, or type a wish yourself. You can add a photo too.
Making wishlists
- What kind of wishlists can I make?
Any kind: a birthday, Christmas, a wedding, a baby shower, a new home or just things you like. Every wishlist works the same way.
- How do I edit a wishlist or a wish?
Open the menu on a wishlist and choose Edit to change its name or theme. Open a wish to change its name, link, note or photo.
- How do I make a wishlist together with someone?
With Wishes Plus, invite collaborators from the Share wishlist screen. They can add, edit and remove wishes with you.
Booking gifts
- How do I book a gift?
Open the wishlist link, pick a wish and tap Book. Wishes asks you to sign in with Apple or Google, and the wish shows as booked to everyone.
- Can I see which wishes are booked on my wishlist?
Yes. Booked wishes show a Booked label, and in the app you can filter your wishlist by Available, Booked or Received.
- Can someone see who booked a wish on their wishlist?
No. The owner sees that a wish is booked, never who booked it, so the surprise stays yours.
- Can more than one person book the same wish?
No. Once a wish is booked, it shows as booked to everyone, so nobody buys the same gift twice.
Secret Santa
- How does Secret Santa work?
Start a group at wishes.app/secret-santa, share one link, and everyone gets a wishlist. The organizer draws names when at least three people have joined.
Wishes Plus and pricing
- How much does Wishes cost?
Wishes is free for your first three wishlists, with sharing and booking included. Wishes Plus adds unlimited wishlists and more.
- What is Wishes Plus?
Wishes Plus is a subscription with unlimited wishlists, every theme, secret wishlists you share by invitation and wishlists you make together.
Your account
- How do I sign in and keep my wishlists?
Sign in with Apple or Google. Everything you made before signing in moves to your account.
- How do I delete my account?
In the Wishes app, open Settings and tap Delete account. Your wishlists and data are deleted for good. Cancel Wishes Plus in your store first.
- How do I report a problem with Wishes?
Email help@wishes.app with what happened, which device you use and a screenshot if you can. We write back by email.
Apps and assistants
- Is Wishes on Android?
Yes. Get Wishes free on Google Play. Make wishlists, share one link and book gifts, the same as on iPhone.
- How do I use Wishes with Siri and widgets?
On iPhone, ask Siri to add a wish, search your wishes in Spotlight and put a wishlist on your Home Screen with the Wishes widget.
- How do I connect Wishes to ChatGPT or Claude?
