DOWNLOAD OF THE MONTH The Christmas Gift List COST: $2.99 OS: iOS 9.0 or later, Android 4.0 and up

Buying Christmas presents for family and friends can be a big job, and with Australians spending, on average, a little over $600 each on gifts it’s not a cheap one either. This app helps you stay on top of gift giving by allowing you to set up helpful lists of each person you’ll be buying a gift for, how much you plan to spend on that person and whether your purchases have gone over or under budget. You can even track whose gifts still need to be wrapped.

Best of all, the app is password protected so children and eager partners can’t snoop around and spoil the surprise.

Your gift list is automatically saved, so when January 1 rolls around, this year’s recipients are carried over to a new list for 2019 festivities.

The $2.99 cost of the app could be a great investment to help you manage an expensive time of year.
