Install the wish button
The wish button opens the new-wish form from any online shop — one click on your computer, the share sheet on your phone.
The wish button is the fastest way to get products onto your list. One click opens the form.
See something online you want? The wish button opens the form with the product already in it — pick the list, confirm, done.
On a computer
Installing it
- Open the wish button page
- Drag the pink button into your bookmarks bar
- That’s it
No bookmarks bar? Press
Ctrl+Shift+Bon Windows orCmd+Shift+Bon a Mac. In Safari it’s View → Show Favorites Bar.
Using it
- Open any product page — Amazon, for example
- Click + Add to wishlist in your bookmarks bar
- The form opens with the product in it
Almost done: if the shop lets us read it, the name, the price and the image are already filled in; if it doesn’t, you add them yourself. Then pick the list and confirm.

The wish button is an ordinary bookmark, so it works anywhere bookmarks are allowed to run JavaScript.
On a phone
On a phone the wish button works through sharing.
Best option: install Wishlist.de as an app
iPhone and iPad:
- Open wishlist.de in Safari
- Tap the share icon, the square with an arrow pointing up
- Choose Add to Home Screen
- Done — Wishlist.de is installed as an app
Android:
- Open wishlist.de in Chrome
- Tap the menu, the three dots at the top right
- Choose Add to home screen
- Done
Using it on a phone
- Open a product page, in the Amazon app or in your browser
- Tap Share — the icon looks different from app to app
- Pick Wishlist.de from the list
- The product is recognized. Then you choose the wishlist, check the details and save.
The iOS share sheet
Once Wishlist.de is installed as an app it shows up in your iOS share sheet by itself. You can share from:
- Safari
- The Amazon app
- Chrome
- Any other app that can share a link
If you can’t find it: scroll to the right in the share sheet and tap More to switch it on.
Sharing on Android
Same idea: Wishlist.de appears in the share menu as soon as the app is installed.
What happens after you share
- Wishlist.de opens
- The product is recognized — name, price, image
- You choose which list it goes to
- One tap on Add, and it’s on the list
More than one list? We ask which one. If you only have one, the product goes straight there.
It works with every online shop
You can bring a link from any shop. Most of them we can read automatically:
- Amazon
- Zalando
- Otto
- MediaMarkt and Saturn
- IKEA
- H&M
- About You
- Thalia
- Douglas
- Decathlon
- Lidl
- …and a thousand more
International shops usually work too. If a page refuses to be read automatically, Wishlist.de says so and you fill in the details yourself.
