Farha app screens: save from any store, your wishlists, and secret reservations

01Challenge

Gift-giving is surprisingly hard to coordinate. Families and friend groups end up guessing in group chats, buying the same thing twice, or spoiling the surprise by asking directly. Common pain points:

  1. 01

    Duplicate gifts

    Nobody knows what the others are buying.

  2. 02

    Store-locked registries

    Most wishlists only work with one retailer and one country.

  3. 03

    Spoiled surprises

    The only way to know what someone wants is to ask them.

  4. 04

    No Arabic or MENA option

    Existing apps ignore Arabic, right-to-left layouts and occasions like Eid.

02Solution

Farha (فرحة, “joy” in Arabic) brings every wish into one free app. Save products from any store in the world, share a list privately or publicly, and let friends reserve gifts without the owner ever seeing who picked what. Gift-givers can view and reserve from the web without creating an account.

Wishlists

03.1

Every wish, in one place

Create wishlists for birthdays, weddings, baby showers, Eid or anything worth celebrating, each with its own occasion, date and visibility: private, friends only, or public.

Gifting together

04.1

Share in one link

Send a wishlist to family and friends. Public lists open on the web, so givers can browse and reserve without installing the app.

04.2

Secret reservations

Friends reserve gifts privately: other givers see an item is taken, the owner never does. No more double gifts, no spoiled surprises.

After reserving a gift, givers can send a reaction and a short message to celebrate with the wishlist owner.
