## Review summary

Wish Explorer is praised for its intuitive design, cross-platform support, and useful wishlist features like cost calculations and purchase tracking. However, multiple users report severe problems after the 2024 update, including item addition failures and login issues, especially with Amazon accounts. Sharing capabilities are also unreliable, with shared lists not visible to others. Some find the app slow or glitchy with confusing navigation. Overall, while the app meets wishlist management needs well, recent technical issues and sharing limitations detract from the experience.

### Pros

- Intuitive and modern interface, liked especially for sharing wishes with family.
- Cross-platform functionality with ability to log in on computer and mobile devices.
- Useful features like calculating total costs and linking items from various sources.
- Effective support and responsive updates appreciated by users.
- Flexible wishlist management, praised for organizing and tracking purchases.

### Cons

- Recent update caused significant issues with adding items (404 errors, authorization failures).
- Login problems with Amazon integration, including 'invalid API key' errors.
- Sharing functionality is problematic; shared lists often cannot be viewed by others.
- App can be slow, glitchy, and has confusing or clunky navigation.
- Lack of important features or inconsistent stability, especially on web/desktop version.
