Finding the perfect present for a friend, partner or family member can be quite difficult, so the 'Wishpoke' app aims to make the process easier by enabling gift recipients to let everyone know exactly what they like.
Acting as a gift registry with a social twist, the app allows users to make a profile and pick out all of the things that they're interested in and like. This could include anything including fashion, travel, beauty, electronics and much more, which can then be browsed by someone looking to give you a gift for inspiration or a way to buy items directly.
The 'Wishpoke' app streamlines gift giving for holidays, birthdays and anniversaries to ensure that inspiration is always readily available when it's needed.
