Secret Santa - Draw & Chat

Set up your group's Secret Santa in minutes: you create the draw, invite people with a link or QR code, and everyone gets their own match on their own phone.

Two ways to draw names

1. Draw without an account For groups that are together in the same room or already talk on another app. You type the names and choose between:

• In person: the phone is passed around and each person taps the screen to see only their own result.
• Remote: the app generates a key for each participant. You send the key by message and that person checks their own result in the app. This mode requires no account, and the draw history is kept on the device.

1. Online draw Each participant joins the group from their own phone and gets the result there. This mode requires a free account, created with email and password, with Google sign-in or with Apple sign-in, so that each person can only see their own match.

What the online draw includes

• Invite participants by link, by group code or by QR code.
• Event date and suggested gift budget, visible to the whole group.
• Restrictions: you can prevent specific people from drawing each other, such as couples or people who matched last year.
• A draw that never lets anyone get their own name.
• Push notifications when the draw is done and when new messages arrive.
• Private reveal: the result is shown only to the person signed in with that account.

Group chat and anonymous chat The app has two conversations. In the group chat everyone agrees on the date, the budget and the place. In the anonymous chat you talk directly to the person you drew without revealing who you are, so you can ask about tastes, clothing sizes and gift ideas without spoiling the surprise. The person receiving the message can reply without finding out your identity either.

Gift preferences Each participant can fill in what they like and what they would rather not receive. Whoever drew that person sees those preferences when choosing the gift.

When to use it End of year parties, Christmas gift exchanges, workplace and office swaps, school and university groups, friends and family, including groups spread across different cities.

Ads and pricing The app is free. It shows ads, and you can watch a video to stay 24 hours without ads if you prefer, at no cost.

Languages English, Portuguese, Spanish, French, German and Italian.
