Remember birthdays

It's easy to forget a birthday, and even easier to remember it too late: the night before, with no present. Gave keeps the birthdays of family and friends in one place, shows what they'd like, and reminds you while there's still time to shop.

The birthdays of the people you follow

When you follow someone in Gave, you see their birthday and how old they're turning. Under Gifts you'll find everyone with a birthday coming up, sorted by date, together with Christmas. Each row shows how long is left, and whether you have a gift reserved or bought.

Tap a birthday to open the person's profile. There you see their wish list, the countdown, and the gifts you have for them, in one place.

You add your own birthday when you set up your profile. Your followers see the day and month, and how old you're turning, but not your full date of birth.

Reminders in good time

Gave reminds you of birthdays 3, 7, or 14 days before. The default is 7 days. The reminder tells you whether you've bought anything yet, such as "You haven't bought a gift yet."

If you've already bought the gift, you get no reminder. Gave doesn't nag about what's done.
Reminders arrive in the daytime, between 9am and 9pm where you are.
You choose which notifications you want: new wishes, reminders, reservations, and new followers.

Right on your Home Screen

With the Gave widget you see who has a birthday soon, and whether you have a gift ready, without opening the app. The widget never shows what's reserved on anyone's wishes.

Remember what you've given

Gave remembers what you've bought for each person. Under "My reservations" you see all your gifts, sorted by person and occasion, and split into "Not bought" and "Bought".

Ideas through the year

If you see something that suits someone in June, save it as a gift idea. Only you see it, and it's ready when the birthday comes round.
