> it actually grabs the image and info correctly To add to the point above: be careful as mobile scrapers fail on boutique sites. Are you using iOS or Android? If youre tired of people asking, just use Share Product to send a link once.

> i just want one place where i can paste a url and it actually grabs the image and info correctly Yeah I hear you, manual entry is a total time sink. I have been using Giftster for a bit and it is definitely one of the more solid ones out there. It feels pretty secure and doesnt spam you with weird ads, which is a big plus for me. I totally agree that most universal lists are just Amazon clones in disguise. This one handles links from small local shops pretty well tho. One thing I noticed is the image grabber might take a second if the shop's site is slow, but it's way more reliable than what you're dealing with now. It is a decent middle ground for keeping things simple for your family... should make the Canada connection easier too.

I spent years jumping between different lists before settling on WishList.com because it worked for my budget. Back when I was planning a big move, I needed to track prices without paying for a premium app.

• no hidden costs
• tracks prices for sales
• easy link grabbing It took a while to realize most paid apps dont offer anything extra. Going the free route saved me quite a bit.
