Favory, a new list sharing app designed to modernize digital gift-giving, has officially launched with a focus on privacy and anonymity. The platform debuts with an anonymous claiming system that lets users mark gifts as purchased without disclosing who bought them, helping to maintain surprises while preventing duplicate presents.
The launch arrives as consumers grow more cautious about how much personal data apps collect and how much visibility they allow into private exchanges. In the growing space of gift apps, where birthday gifts, weddings, Christmas gifts, and group gift exchanges often involve personal details, Favory’s privacy-first approach sets it apart. The anonymous claiming feature is presented as a key innovation, addressing both the stress of buying the right item and the desire for discretion.
Founded in 2025, Favory is now available on iOS, Android, and the web. The company said the platform is designed to cut down on the billions of dollars spent annually on unwanted gifts while reducing the uncertainty that surrounds selecting the right present. By centralizing wishlists across major retailers, Favory allows users to create, manage, and share what they want in one location.
“Favory isn’t just another gift app. It’s a platform that brings people together through the joy of giving,” said Tyler K. Gordon, founder of Favory. “We’ve built something that competitors can’t easily replicate: a comprehensive ecosystem with AI, social features, and privacy controls that make gift-giving meaningful again. In just weeks of development, we’ve introduced features that larger platforms don’t offer, and this is only the beginning.”
The platform introduces a range of functions designed to simplify the process for both list creators and givers. Favory includes more than 40 predefined categories spanning home décor, fashion, toys, and technology. Users can import items directly from major retailers with a single click, consolidating scattered wishlists without the need for manual entry. Real-time synchronization across devices ensures lists are always accessible, and offline support helps users stay connected even without an internet connection.
Favory also features an AI-powered assistant, Listo, which generates personalized gift recommendations and supports natural language list creation. Users can upload photos to identify and add products seamlessly. For families and groups coordinating birthday gifts, Christmas gifts, or Secret Santa activities, Favory enables group gift splitting, shared lists, and automated matching for group gift exchanges.
The company emphasized that its privacy-centered design reflects the growing shift in consumer expectations. Rather than pressuring users to make their preferences public, Favory allows for selective sharing. This flexibility helps preserve personal comfort while enabling meaningful exchanges. The anonymous claiming function ensures surprises remain intact, while also avoiding multiple people purchasing the same gift.
“I built Favory for my family,” Gordon said. “I wanted an easy way to get them exactly what they wanted, and nothing beats the joy on their faces when they open that gift. Favory is more than just an app to me, it’s a vision for how gift-giving can and should be.”
The launch underscores the growing demand for digital tools that accommodate the realities of modern celebrations. With many families and friends spread across cities or continents, coordinating gifts has become increasingly complex. Favory aims to address this challenge by combining wishlist management, social features, and secure coordination into one system.
For users searching for birthday gifts, Christmas gifts, or everyday gifts, Favory provides a central hub that works across any retailer or website. Unlike single-store wishlists or social bookmarking tools, Favory was designed to be platform-agnostic and universally accessible. Its focus on anonymity, coordination, and intelligent suggestions makes it stand out among list sharing apps.
The company is targeting a diverse audience that includes families preparing for holiday celebrations, young adults creating lists for birthdays and personal events, and professionals coordinating office Secret Santa activities. By combining e-commerce aggregation with social features, Favory seeks to ease the burden of gift-giving while making the process more thoughtful.
The launch also reflects a broader consumer move toward tools that balance ease of use with respect for privacy. Favory’s approach combines the benefits of social connectivity with data protection, positioning it as both a list sharing app and an example of how digital platforms can evolve responsibly.
As gift apps grow more common, Favory’s system offers a way to unify wishlist creation, group gift exchange coordination, and Secret Santa automation while respecting user privacy. By addressing everyday needs around gifts, from birthdays to Christmas gifts, the platform is designed to simplify traditions and help users focus on meaningful moments. The app is available on the Apple Store at https://apps.apple.com/us/app/favory/id6748315853 and Google Play at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wnapp.id1751902215550.
