Birthdays, any day of the year
A birthday gift for your boyfriend or girlfriend that's all about them
A birthday gift for your boyfriend or girlfriend can be the year you spent texting them. A Wrapped counts your WhatsApp chat, adds a birthday letter and a quiz, and lands as one link they can open at midnight.

one birthday wish would have been plenty
There's a small race on every birthday to be the first message after midnight. A Wrapped wins it properly: instead of 'hbd', they get a story with their name on the gift and a year of the two of you inside.
Give it alongside the real present. It's the part they open in bed at 12:01 and screenshot to their friends.

Happy birthday to the person I'd text first in any emergency, and most non-emergencies.
Another year of you. Lucky me, mostly.
I wanted to be the first message today. Clearly I planned ahead.
You're older, and somehow still the most annoying person I love.
Happy birthday. Your present is late, but this is right on time.
Every year with you is my favorite one so far.
Make a wish. If it's me, good news.

Questions
What's a thoughtful birthday gift for my boyfriend that isn't a thing?
A story made from your texts. A Wrapped shows how much you talk, who says I love you more and the hour you text most, then adds a letter, photos and your song. He gets it as one link.
Can I make it for a friend or family member's birthday?
Yes. The chat stats work with any one to one WhatsApp chat, so a best friend, sibling or parent gets their own Wrapped. Use the family or friends stickers instead of the hearts.
Is it too late if their birthday is today?
No. It takes about five minutes and arrives as soon as you send the link.
Can they write back?
Every Wrapped ends with a reply box. You see their answer on your private responses page, along with their quiz score and the coupons they redeem.
