Find a friends wish list on amazon

Struggling to decide what to buy for your friend or family member? Buying the perfect gift seems to get harder every year. That's why it's so helpful to choose something from an Amazon wish list.

Here, we're going to tell you how to find someone's Amazon wish list, along with a wedding and baby list.

How to Find an Amazon Wish List

In the past, you could make an Amazon wish list public. Now, it needs to be specifically shared with you.

To see the wish lists that have been shared with you:

1. Go to the Amazon homepage.
2. Hover over Account & Lists in the top right.
3. Click Find a List.

3 – Tap Find a List or Registry from the drop-down menu.

4 – You can search by name to find your friend’s Wish List. Enter the name of the registrant, select the list or registry type from the menu, and click Search to see your friend’s profile.

5 – Click the name of the list you want to browse.

6 – Scroll through the list and see the products your friend has added.

7 – If you don’t see your friend’s name, go to Your Friends. Send a message to request access to their Wish List or registry.

A pop-up window will appear containing a pre-written note asking the Amazon Wish List creator to share their list or registry with you.

You can then select Copy message or Email this message to contact the friend or family member who created the list.

That person then needs to go to their Wish List, click Send list to others, then invite you to give you access to their list.

Using the Amazon App on Mobile Devices

Thanks to the Amazon app, accessing a friend’s list, Amazon wedding registry, or baby registry on your tablet or phone is just as easy.

Follow these steps to access the Wish Lists page via the Amazon app.

1 – Open the Amazon app on your device and sign in to your Amazon account.

2 – Tap on the hamburger menu—the three lines in the lower right corner of the screen.

3 – Click Lists on the bottom right corner of the screen.

4 – Tap the Your Friends’ Lists tab.

5 – Choose your friend’s name from the drop-down menu to view the list they have shared with you.

6 – Click the name of the list you want to browse.

7 – Scroll through the list and see the products your friend has added.

8 – If you don’t see your friend’s name, send a message to them to request access to that person’s list.

How to Buy an Item From a Friend’s Amazon Registry or Wish List

You now know how to find a family member’s or friend’s Amazon Wish List, so let’s talk about buying a gift.

The checkout process for purchasing items from the Wish List is essentially the same as the checkout process for regular items.

Here’s how you can purchase items from the Amazon Wish List.

1 – Choose your gift and tap Add to Cart. Select Add to Cart again in the pop-up confirmation window.

2 – Select Proceed to Checkout.

3 – If you want Amazon to deliver the item directly to your friend, choose the address your friend has provided on the checkout page under Other addresses.

You could enter the address yourself if your friend didn’t include it.

4 – Tap Save Gift Options to add a message and remove price details from the receipt.

5 – Confirm your payment information and select Place your order.

Note that Amazon will only remove purchased items from the list if you use the on-file shipping address associated with the list.

Amazon won’t remove an item from the Amazon Wish List if you choose to have Amazon ship the item to your address.

In such cases, someone else might buy the same gift, resulting in duplicate purchases.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How Do You Make an Amazon Wish List?

It’s easy to make your own personal Wish Lists as long as you have an Amazon account.

Here’s how.

1. Go to Your Lists.
2. Select Create a List and input a list name.
3. Tap Create List.

Once you’ve made your list, you can add items you’d like to receive from friends and family by selecting Add to List on the product details page of these items.

How Do I Share an Amazon Wish List?

Here’s how you can share your Amazon Wish Lists with others.

1. Go to Your Lists.
2. Tap the list you want to share.
3. Click Invite, and you’ll see two options: View only and View and Edit. The View only option means people with the link can only view the list and not edit it. The View and Edit option means they can view, edit, and remove items from the list.
4. Select the setting you’d like the invited person to have.

Once you’ve fixed the setting, you can invite people to check out your list through a link, an email, or a text message.

Are Amazon Wish Lists Anonymous?

You can change your privacy settings to make your Wish List anonymous. Amazon has three privacy settings to manage access to Wish Lists.

• Public: anyone can find and access the list
• Private: only you can view it
• Shared: anyone with the link can see it.

Will Anyone See My Address on My Amazon Wish List?

The short answer is no. Addresses are confidential on Amazon Wish Lists. By default, only the registrant’s name and city appear to protect the list owner’s privacy.

The default shipping address may be available if the list owner has enabled third-party address sharing. Otherwise, you have to enter the exact shipping address.

Will the Recipient Know if Someone Purchased Something on Their Wish List?

That depends on whether they have set up a spoiler alert. The Wish List feature has a Do not spoil my surprises setting.

This setting prevents the recipient from receiving a notification when someone purchases something from their list. It’s handy for surprises but can also result in duplicate purchases if the recipient orders an item, not knowing that someone already purchased it for them.

Take advantage of the Manage List option if you have your own Wish List and want to avoid duplicate items.

Here’s how.

1. Go to Your Lists.
2. Tap Manage list on the particular list you want to change.
3. Uncheck Keep purchased items on your list.

The Bottom Line

The Amazon Wish List page is undoubtedly a feature that makes gift shopping much more manageable.

It saves you time and effort and is a surefire way to help you choose presents that the recipient will love.

Whether you’re looking for a gift for a wedding, a baby shower, or any other special occasion, the registry or Wish List will prove invaluable.
