How do I make a wishlist?
Updated October 17, 2026
You can make a wishlist in the Wishes app on iPhone or Android, or on the web.
In the app
- Tap New wishlist on the home screen.
- Give it a name, like "Christmas 2026" or "Our wedding".
- Pick a theme, or keep the one Wishes chose.
- Save it, then add your first wish.
You don't need to sign in to start. Wishes keeps your wishlists in a guest account until you sign in with Apple or Google, and they come with you when you do.
On the web
- Go to wishes.app/new.
- Name your wishlist, pick a theme and add your first wish.
- Tap Create. Wishes asks you to sign in with Apple or Google here, so your wishlist is saved to your account.
The web is the quick way to start. Organizing your wishlists, secret wishlists and the rest live in the app, where you'll find the same wishlist once you sign in with the same account.
Your first three wishlists are free. For more, see How much does Wishes cost?
