Giftory for Mac

Avoid buying the same gift twice

Have you ever unwrapped a present only to discover you had given the same item the year before? Giftory is designed to prevent that by helping you keep a record of the gifts you give and the ones you receive, so duplicate purchases become a thing of the past.

Core capabilities

• Record details for each gift (store, price, and other notes).
• Create separate lists for each recipient and mark entries by year.
• Track both presents you plan to give and those you’ve received.
• Add fun extras like the hiding spot or the special occasion associated with a gift.
• Monitor spending so you can balance budgets across different people.

Known limitations and quirks

• Prices are limited to US dollars, which restricts international use.
• There is no built-in way to export or print your lists.
• The app hasn’t been updated since 2006 and could benefit from modern improvements.
• For many users, a well-structured spreadsheet can reproduce most of Giftory’s functionality.

Suggested alternative

• Minecraft: Java & Bedrock Edition (paid) — listed as a top alternative in some places, though it’s not a like-for-like replacement for a gift-tracking tool.

Bottom line

Giftory is a simple, straightforward program for logging gifts given and received over the years, but it lacks export/printing options, multi-currency support, and recent maintenance.
