♻️ Recover deleted wishes, lists, and more

Deleting something in Bestboy doesn't erase it right away - it moves to Trashcan for 30 days, so you can bring it back if you change your mind.

## ♻️ Recover deleted wishes, lists, and more

Deleting a wish, list, gift idea, or person doesn't erase it right away - it moves to **Trashcan** first, where it stays for 30 days before it's gone for good.

1. Right after deleting something, look for the **Undo** button on the confirmation toast - the fastest way to bring it straight back. 2. Missed it? Go to [Settings → Trashcan](/settings/trash) any time. 3. Switch between the **Wishes**, **Lists**, **People**, and **Gift ideas** tabs to find what you're looking for. 4. Click **Bring back** to restore an item, or open its options menu and choose **Delete forever** to remove it immediately instead of waiting out the 30 days.

Anything left in Trashcan for 30 days is permanently deleted and can no longer be recovered.

30 days from when you deleted it. After that it's permanently removed and can't be recovered.

Can I skip the wait and delete something for good right away?

Yes - open its options menu in Trashcan and choose Delete forever.

Does deleting a list also delete the wishes on it?

No - the wishes stay put and can still be found under the Wishes or Gift ideas tab in Trashcan, independent of the list they were on.
