App Description

Help you to organize a Kris Kringle event quickly using this app. It creates a name list of people participating in a Kris Kringle (a.k.a. Secret Santa) and it works out who is buying gift for whom.

Quick and simple. You input the names and the app automatically selects who is buying gift for whom randomly. This also makes it a very fair process. No need to draw names from a hat.

Features:

• Quick entry of participant’s names. You can enter their full name, or just their first name, or even a nickname.

• Pick names directly from your address book.

• Draw names randomly. This determines who should buy gift for whom. A quick and fair process. One click will do the trick. Alternatively, you can shake the device.

•Full record of who is buying gift for whom. You can send this list to yourself or someone else.

•Inform each participant. You can email or SMS each participant directly to let him or her know whom he or she is buying the gift for. You can create a customised template that for these emails, saving you lots of typing.

•Simply data entry. The app automatically lookups the person’s email address from your Address Book. (This feature works best if the participant’s full name is entered.)

•Add email address and mobile number. This is useful in situation where the person is not in your address book and you may not want to put them there.

•Hidden mode. This hide the name of the recipient on the screen.
