Access: Free

The shared overview shows three active wishes belonging to Daniel with prices, priorities and occasions.

The short answer

Your family plans in one place

The problem

When a birthday approaches, the family asks for ideas again because earlier suggestions have been forgotten.

How Best4Family helps

Open Wishlist from the module overview. In Active, tap the plus to add your own wish. Enter a title and description, keep Visibility set to Visible to the whole family for a shared wish, then save. The item appears with your name in the overview.

How it works

Get organised in a few steps

01
Open the collection
Open Wishlist. Active shows the shared wishes that are still open, together with the name of the person each belongs to.
02
Add your own wish
Tap the plus and enter a specific title. Describe the size, version or purpose so the family understands what you mean.
03
Add useful details
Add Estimated cost, Currency, Priority and Event type if useful. Keep Visible to the whole family enabled for the shared collection shown here.
04
Save and read it again
Tap Add, then open its card to check the description and details. Items already marked as bought appear under Purchased.

Good to know

Use these steps for wishes intended to be shared. Private gift ideas are not reliably protected in data queries in this version; do not store secret or sensitive details here.
Public means visible to the family in this interface. It does not publish the wish on the internet.
The ordinary wish form has no recipient picker. This guide does not use the separate Gift Ideas view.
Only the owner and family admins can edit a wish or change its purchase status. Shared visibility does not give other members editing rights.
The Free policy provides ten active wishes per person. Purchased items do not count towards the active total.
Free allowance: 10 open wishes per person and family.
Where the Free allowance applies, you need an available place or Premium to add more. Existing content remains readable and editable, even above the allowance. Premium removes this quantity limit; it does not promise unlimited AI usage.
Your private gift ideas also count. Purchased or cancelled wishes free a place.

If something looks wrong

You cannot edit another person’s wish.

Ordinary family members cannot edit other people’s wishes. Ask the owner or a family admin to change it. Being able to read a shared wish does not give you editing rights.

Less coordination, a clearer view

Bring your family plans together.
