Pros and cons of Santa's Little Helper app for iPhone and iPad

Santa's Little Helper app good for

It is a fun and easy to use way to keep track of expenses and gifts purchased so far. You can quickly add a gift idea so you dont forget.
Feedback: ability to take a photo of each gift would help, when returning to a store to purchase. Thanks Merry Christmas and thanks for The Best List app ever. This is perfect!!!!! Ive got a big list and this really keeps me on track. The password protection is perfect for keeping snooping eyes out.
Get this app if youre like me and have countless gifts to buy. It covers all my Holiday shopping list needs, from the planning stage until the last gift is wrapped. Its simple and fun to use. The hardest part was typing in all the names on my list, and I did that a couple of years ago, so at the start of every season I just need to clear the gifts and the names are all there and ready to be checked off. The option to print or email the list is great (to keep a record), and so is the password protection. Updates over the last couple of years makes it a solid and ultra convenient app.
Absolutely love this app. So incredibly handy and easy to use. Only suggestion is that it could be synched to a second device so that my husband and myself could both have access to an updated shopping list all the time. Keep up the great work. :)
Wonderful help in keeping things organized. There are a few ideas that would help keep things organized for me (alphabetizing the list of gifts I need to buy would help to make sure that I do not miss someone in the rush). Also it would be nice to have groups/stores so we could have the option to print our a partial list if someone is helping with the shopping (right now I edit the email). Still and all, this has made things much, much easier this year. Thank you. The latest version changes make this app even more useful than before. I almost wish I had more shopping to do! Again, thank you.

Some bad moments

The app is good, but it is inexplicably tedious to enter gifts. Youre always switching to and from various screens -- even for simple thing like yes or no. It gets tiresome. Please fix this and Ill raise the no of stars awarded.
Love the app but would like to see a separate field for the planned amount and the amount that was actually spent. With the same field, the planned amount keeps changing with your purchases and you cant see how you are doing to an overall budget. Thanks!
I like the app. except I think it would be better if you could put your planned budget amt in as the Planned amt. and then as you purchase items they would subtract from that amt. so you could then see what you have left to spend of your planned amt.
This is an AWESOME app.  Just what I was looking for.  I usually have to take an "old school" excel sheet with me to track this type of info. You can put names into groups and it tracks money spent and money planning to spend. Great app to keep track of not only Christmas gifts but I use it for B-Days too.
This app is great for gift shopping & budget!!! Very easy 2 use!!
Does exactly what I need it to do - track Christmas gift giving. Love that I can look up by store, by gift or by person. Budget tracking is great. I can now give up my spreadsheet and have it all at the tips of my fingers. How about adding to this or adding another app for other gift giving occasions - birthdays, showers, weddings, etc. Worth more than the .99 I paid!
