Christmas brings with it one of the most frustrating tasks of the year – gift giving. It’s strenuous, expensive and can often lead to unneeded stress, which is why Glasshouse Apps has created a program to help streamline the process.
Gift Plan is all about simplifying the gift giving experience. Rather than have all of those birthdays and anniversaries sneak up on you, Gift Plan warns you in advance of all of these events, and lets you know when they’re coming closer.
The app allows you to import contacts and birthdays, anniversaries and profile photos from Facebook. Once that’s done you can edit a profile for each person and put in some likes, dislikes, clothing sizes and other types of gift ideas.
On the main screen, occasions are colour coded, and you can highlight the number of days until each event.
This isn’t just a Christmas app; the strength of Gift Plan is that you can use it all year round.
Definitely worth the $2.49 asking price.
