im literally pulling my hair out right now because my daughters 10th birthday is this saturday and i have spent two hours trying to figure out this stupid walmart website. i made a list of everything she wants:
but i cant find a way to send the link to her aunts. it keeps showing my own account or saying its private even when i try to fix the settings. honestly im so fed up with this clunky app and i just need to get these gifts sorted before the weekend.
can i actually share a walmart birthday wishlist with my friends or am i just stuck??
yeah its honestly such a pain dealing with that app sometimes. walmart is usually my go-to because the prices are way better than target for those squishmallows and craft kits, but the tech side is messy... you definitely can share it, but you have to toggle the privacy specifically within the list settings or it just creates a loop. try this to get it working:
Like someone mentioned, the desktop version is usually the only way to bypass those bugs. I spent four hours last Christmas trying to sync a toy list for my godson and it was a total nightmare. You might want to consider being careful with those privacy toggles tho, because sometimes they reset if you jump between the app and the web. Honestly, just search for Walmart wishlist sharing on YouTube or check the forums. I saw a super helpful video recently that shows exactly where the hidden share button is now because they moved it again. Its much safer to follow a visual guide so you dont accidentally delete your whole list. Those craft supplies can get pricey if you miss the sales, so getting the link right is huge for the budget. TL;DR: App is a glitchy mess, just search for a recent YouTube walkthrough for the fix. Just a tip, Walmart Wishlist Creator is a life saver for planning big holiday shopping trips without losing track of things.
Agreed, its way worse than expected. That Huffy bike mess last month was my last straw. Unfortunately, the app glitches, so just copy the URL from a desktop browser instead.
Ngl Walmarts whole list system is basically broken half the time. I struggled with this for my sons party last summer and eventually realized that Lists and Registries behave totally differently on their site. Registries are way more stable for sharing than just a standard shopping list.
