Elfster truly makes the ease of coordinating and executing a Gift Exchange or Secret Santa incredibly easy and efficient. It's also great to be able to keep a wish list available if anyone asks what you want. And you can also create a wish list for a child as well!

great app but its removed the "write in a list" option tho it occasionally shows when at inconvenience except not for when I actually WANT it to show up, trying to reorder items on your list freezes up for no reason

We are always trying to make Elfster more user-friendly. If you would like to add a link from another website, you can enter it in the search bar on any main page. To add a custom wish, you can find the "Link or Describe" button at the top of your Wishlist. We will take a look at the re-order items freezing. Thank you for letting us know!
