About this app
Secret Santa Draw runs your office gift exchange without anyone having to be the person who knows everything.
One person starts the exchange and gets a six-character code. Everyone else joins with that code, and when the draw happens each person sees exactly one name: the person they are buying for. The organiser draws blind too — they take part like everyone else, and the app never shows them the pairings.
No account. No email address. No password. You type a name and you are in.
TWO WAYS TO RUN IT
• Everyone on their own phone
Share the code, everyone joins, each person gets their own private result. Add a wishlist so your gifter is not guessing, and ask them an anonymous question if you are stuck for ideas.
• Just this phone
For the colleague who will not install anything. Type everyone's names, draw, then pass the phone around — each person taps their own name, sees their giftee, and hands it on. Or send each result privately, one message per person. Works completely offline.
WHEN SOMEONE DROPS OUT
Somebody gets ill, or leaves the company, the week before the exchange. Most apps make you draw again and ruin it for everyone who has already bought a gift.
This one repairs itself. Mark the person as having left, and the one participant who was buying for them is quietly given a new giftee. Nobody else's pairing changes, nobody else is told, and the organiser still learns nothing.
KEEP CERTAIN PEOPLE APART
Couples, or two people who share a desk. Add a "keep apart" rule and the draw will never pair them. If the rules cannot all be satisfied the app says so in plain language instead of quietly ignoring one.
ALSO IN THE APP
• A budget per gift, in your currency
• An exchange date, with a reminder the day before and on the day
• Wishlists — only the person buying for you can read yours
• Anonymous questions between a gifter and their giftee
• English, German, French and Italian
• Light and dark theme
ABOUT PRIVACY
Assignments are stored so that each person's device can read exactly one of them: their own. That includes the organiser's device. When somebody drops out, the single participant affected is allowed one extra read for exactly as long as it takes to repair the ring.
Solo mode never touches the internet at all.
