What is Things To Have?

Things To Have is a calm wishlist app for you and your friends.

No ads, no paywalls, no algorithm deciding what you should want — just the things you like, privately organized and ready to share in one click.

I started it in 2022 as a wishlist for a group of friends. Over the years it grew into a full app.

Why Things To Have?

  • It's more than a gift list. Use it as a holiday wishlist — or a buy-it-later shelf, a music setup planner, a vinyl collection tracker, or a workspace showcase.

  • Calm by design. No algorithmic suggestions. No suggestions at all, actually. It's built with privacy in mind, and its design stays neutral — your list looks like yours, not like an ad for our brand.

  • Free, everywhere, no friction. Every feature is free — nothing sits behind a paywall. It works in any browser on any device, and installs as an app (PWA).

  • Social when you want it. Follow friends to see what they add to their wishlists. Discover new things through friends and like-minded people. Share your wishlist with anyone — they don't need an account.

All it takes is an email address — start your first list.
