GoWish is a digital wishlist app that lets you save things you want from any online store and share them with friends and family. It first came out in 2015, and you can find it on both Google Play and the App Store. The app has passed ten million downloads, and it is free to download and use. You do need to sign up with an email or Facebook account to get started, but there are no in-app ads and no in-app purchases pushing you to spend money.
Using GoWish is pretty simple. You browse a store in your phone browser or inside the app, and when something catches your eye, you add it to a list. You can set up different lists for birthdays, Christmas, or just everyday wishes, and you can sort items by price or priority. A handy tip: install the browser extension if you shop on a computer, since it makes saving items from almost any shop a one-click job. Another tip is to add sizes and colors to each item, so whoever buys it knows exactly what you want. You can also invite family members to your list so they see updates right away.
I have tried a few similar apps, like Wunderlist before it shut down, and Wishlist Plus on Google Play. What made me stick with GoWish is how clean and calm it feels. Other apps bury you in ads or ask for money to unlock basic things. GoWish does not. The sharing part is also smoother, because your friends do not need to make an account just to see your list. You send a link, and they open it in a browser. The app syncs fast between phones and tablets too, so I never worry about losing something I saved. For a free app with no ads, that is honestly a rare thing these days.
Features
- ๐ Adding wishes from any store is the standout feature. You paste a link or use the built-in browser, and GoWish pulls in the product name, image, and price for you.
- ๐ Shared lists update in real time. When someone marks a gift as bought, everyone else on the list can see it, which stops double gifts.
- ๐ Groups keep things organized. You can create separate wishlists for family, friends, or work and control who sees what.
- ๐ Compared with Wishlist Plus, the app is far less cluttered. The interface is calm and easy to read, and there are no ads interrupting you.
Pros
- ๐ No ads and no in-app purchases, while many similar apps like Giftster push paid tiers.
- ๐ Works on both Google Play and the App Store, so friends with different phones can still join.
- ๐ Sharing by link is easy, and people can view a list without signing up.
- ๐ The clean design makes GoWish quicker to use than Wishlist Plus.
Cons
- ๐ง It relies on an internet connection, so saving items offline is not really possible.
- ๐ง Some smaller shops do not load product images correctly, which Wishlist Plus handles better.
- ๐ง The sign-up step can feel annoying if you only want to peek at a friend's list.
- ๐ง Notifications are a bit basic compared with Giftster, which lets you set reminder times.
