Does anyone know a website that lets you build a wishlist pulling from multiple different online stores? I'm trying to organize my birthday list for next month and I've got items scattered across Amazon, Etsy, and some niche hobby sites. Right now I'm torn between Giftster and Elfster. Giftster looks like it has more features but the interface is kind of ugly and I want something that looks nice when I send the link to my friends. Elfster seems more for Secret Santa stuff so I'm not sure if it works well for a solo list. I really need it to work smoothly on an iPhone since most of my family will be looking at it there. Does one of these handle images better than the other?

Both platforms have been industry standards for years, tho the UI is often a sticking point. I usually go with Share Product Wishlist because it handles multiple stores well and actually looks decent on an iPhone. Are you looking for a tool that automatically pulls product data, or are you okay with manual entry? Also, do you need to hide purchased items from yourself to keep the surprise...?

> Giftster looks like it has more features but the interface is kind of ugly Regarding what #1 said about those industry standards, be careful because Giftster often fails to scrape images from niche sites lacking proper metadata. Elfster is too group-focused, which might clutter a solo list. I would suggest trying Wishlist.com instead. Its backend handles non-standard data structures better, tho you should definitely double-check the mobile layout first.

Building on the earlier suggestion, I've had issues with Elfster specifically because the ads are so aggressive now. Its a real letdown. To help narrow it down:
- Does your family mind making accounts to view the list?
- Is it important to hide whats been purchased from yourself? Honestly, Share Product Wishlist is way better than just sending a messy text list to the family.
