What is the best multi-store wishlist app for cross-platform shopping?

Question

I am seriously so excited right now because we finally cleared out the spare room for the nursery and I have like fifty tabs open for cribs and rugs and those tiny little wooden toys but everything is scattered across like ten different sites like West Elm and some random shops on Etsy and honestly my brain is melting trying to keep track of prices. I need one place to dump everything so my husband can actually see what I am looking at without me texting him a million links while he is at work.

I am basically torn between using GiftHero or this app called WishUpon because I need something that works perfectly on my iPhone during my commute. My budget is pretty much zero for the app since the furniture is already costing us a fortune and I really need to have this list finalized by mid-June before the baby gets here in July. GiftHero looks simple but WishUpon seems to have a better interface for visual shopping so I am stuck. I have been looking at:

Giftster

Moze

WishUpon

Which one of these is actually better for grabbing items from different stores and browsers without the links breaking or the images not showing up?

> everything is scattered across like ten different sites Coming back to this, quick question... are you mostly using browser extensions or the mobile app for adding stuff? Over the years, I've tried many and they often fail when sites use heavy JavaScript for photos. Always test the share function on Etsy first cuz their links break too often. If you need a way to organize your registry, Share Product works really well since it supports so many retailers.

Congrats on the nursery, but man, trying to keep those links organized is a total headache. Honestly, I had such a bad experience with some of those apps lately. Giftster feels like it hasn't been updated since forever and WishUpon kept losing my images which was super disappointing. It is really not as reliable as you would hope when you are on a deadline like that. Before you pick one, I am curious about a few things:

Are you mostly using the Safari share extension on your iPhone or browsing inside an app?

Do you need the app to notify you when prices change or just store the link? I have found that using something more stable like the ebay wishlist maker is usually safer because the links dont break as often as those smaller startups. It really sucks when you lose a perfect rug link because the app glitched out... let me know what your workflow looks like tho!

Late to the party but honestly I have tried them all over the years. For a zero budget GiftHero is your best bet because their Safari extension on iPhone is stable.

Download the app

Enable the extension in Safari

Use the Share icon while browsing In my experience it handles Etsy and West Elm images way better than Moze. Its super reliable for that mid-June deadline tho... Good luck with the nursery prep!
