A universal wishlist is an always-on list of gifts and essentials you want—no matter the occasion. On GiftList, you can use the same wishlist for birthdays, holidays, housewarmings, or spontaneous gift ideas, adding items from ANY retailer and sharing via a unique link. Learn more in our FAQ.

• Cross-platform apps: Manage your list on iOS (download), Android (download), or desktop.

• Easy sharing & collaboration: Copy your unique URL or invite friends to view and edit.
