Hi Reggie,
Just open the app store, put focus on the “Featured” tab at the bottom left of the screen (where normally the Phone icon is when you are on the home screen), now flick left 3 times and you’ll be on a button called “Send Gift”. Here is what you see on the screen that opens: A “To” button, double tap on that and enter the email address of the person you want to send the gift to. This is a bit of a strange field because double tapping the To button pops up the on-screen keyboard and you can enter the email address, but you can’t actually see it until you are done and press the Return/Enter button on the virtual keyboard. If I entered my own email address, it would then say “To [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> ” instead of just “To”. The second button is “From” and it should already have your name in it. Then is a message field with a 200 character maximum, so you could type something like “Merry Christmas, enjoy this little gift” or whatever. Next you have several values to choose from, there is a $20, $30 and $50 option or an “other” choice where you could type in a custom amount, this field works properly and a numeric keypad pops up where you can enter the amount. If you select one of the amounts that are listed Voiceover will say “Selected” after you double tap on it. Next is a heading called “Send Gift” and underneath a button which says “Today”. If you double tap on this it changes to “Other date” and you can select a future date from a picker, there is a picker for month, day and year at the bottom of the screen and you can flick up with one finger to pick a future day. Since we are in December and you can’t pick a day in the past the month picker cannot be changed unless you first change the year from 2015 to 2016, at that point you can select any month and day in 2016. flick up/down to adjust Once you are done with all that double tap on “Next” Now you can choose a theme, if you touch at the bottom in the middle above the home key you find a page picker. You can flick up and change it, for me it had 7 options, if I touched the middle of the screen after changing it it would tell me a description of the theme, e.g. Purple Background with a green present or “Holiday” or “Winter”. Select you theme and double tap next again at the top right of the screen. Lastly you now have a summary of everything, it shows the To address, the name, your email address, the theme and amount and you can now double tap on the “Buy” button at the top right and your credit card will be charged. Remember two things: 1. You can only send a gift to somebody who uses the same app/iTunes store as you, e.g. if you are in the US you can only send a gift to somebody else in the US who uses the uS app store. I am in Canada and I couldn’t sent you a gift because you are not using the Canadian app/iTunes store. 2. Any gifts you send are charged to the card on your account even if you yourself have a gift card balance. Good luck, Sieghard From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Regina Alvarado Sent: Thursday, December 10, 2015 8:14 AM To: [email protected] Subject: iTunes gift cards once again Where can I find iTunes gift cards which send an email to recipient with the code to put in? Apple changed the store, and I am getting frustrated as it sends me to podcasts. Do I need to go online or can I order from app? I have never done this before, though I have been a recipient of gift cards. Can I get a step-by-step from the giving side, please?
