(Minneapolis-St. Paul, Mn) — Nov. 15, 2023 — Today Giftster announces the release of the Giftster 6.0 App for iPhone & iPad, a 2-year development effort to give iPhone and iPad users a version of Giftster built just for their devices.
Ron Reimann, Giftster CEO says “Apple customers are big fans of Giftster, so we built a dedicated version of Giftster from the ground up, just for them. I’m proud of the team that delivered and will continue enhancing this app, which includes our UX/UI designer, a dedicated iOS programmer/architect, a full stack developer for API and back-end work, and staff for testing and product management.”
This app is all new, but it is built on the 14 years of experience Giftster has with gift registries and wish list sharing.
Giftster added three wish list-building enhancements in this new app, which replaces the existing Giftster app
Add any item fast from Safari. Add items from any store while browsing the web in Safari or from a retailer’s app.
Add an item with Find & Fetch. Search for an item to add from the web without leaving the app.
Personalize your wish lists. Select a list image theme, note, and profile photo to customize each Christmas or birthday list.
In addition to list creation, Giftster has introduced the ability to recruit new group members by text message or in their favorite messaging app. And while members shop their families’ lists, they can now sort items by newest, availability, price, and more.
