New Skipwish App Features

Hopefully, by now everyone has downloaded the Skipwish App. If not, you have a couple of new reasons too. Over the past few weeks, we have been adding new features and capabilities, making the app experience just like our website. Things like Search, Add Item Button, Friends Gift Lists, Share and Recommended Items. With that being all said and done, let me show to you what features and capabilities were added during those times.

You can now Search for Gifts, Gift Lists, and Users on the Skipwish App. When you search for a gift, the app will give you items that are already on Skipwish and from popular retail sites. From this screen, you can easily add them to any Gift List with the purple Add Item Button.

You can also now Share your gift lists to your social media accounts to make sure all of your friends and family who is planning a surprise party celebration for you know what gifts really matter to you. After you have created your list, you just have to go to your gift lists tab, and from there, you should be able to see the Facebook and Twitter social media icons there. You just have to click the icon on what social media you want to share your gift lists with and you're all set. Quite convenient right?

The Add Item Button is on most screens that show gifts. We made it so that each and every time you see an item that you want to add to your gift lists be surely added to your gift list. If you see something that you like and want to add it to a gift list simply tap the purple plus icon. Next, select the list you would like to add it too and hit “Add to this List”. This will make filling your gift list easier on the App! Along with the Add Item Button, we have also added a Recommended Items tab to all Gift Lists. So if you need some ideas or making a gift list from a scratch, you could always rely to this feature and show you gifts from other users who added the same items on the same occasion. That way when you are looking to fill a gift list you can just jump over to this tab to find and add more gifts.

We have also made it easier to view the Gift Lists of your Skipwish Community. You can view others’ Gift Lists by searching for your friend’s Gift Lists or from the Gift List tab. While on the Gift List tab just select “My Friends Lists” to view other’s lists. 

All of these features should make adding to your Holiday Gift Lists and sharing them much easier from the App. Along with these new features, we are working on adding even more by the end of the year. Make sure to stay on the lookout for more features to come soon!
