How to see sent, hidden gifts in VK - an easy way
If a person has many friends and subscribers on VK, he often does not understand how to find out who he gave a gift to in VK. After all, it is very easy to forget or confuse. And sending the same gift to the same person is not very nice. A friend may be offended, especially if the friend is female . For some reason, girls pay a lot of attention to such things.
In the old version of VK there was a special “sent gifts” tab, but it has now been removed for security reasons.
How to find out who sent a gift to VK if the sender is anonymous?
How to find out the unknown sender of a VKontakte gift? The question posed gradually lost its relevance, since the administration of the social network removed the function that allows you to send anonymous postcards. Now you can give a nice gift without revealing your identity in exceptional cases and in limited quantities. The last time such an action was held was on February 14. Then everyone received the right to 1 free Valentine card without a signature.
That is, now every picture sent will be signed. But such changes do not reduce the number of questions that users want answered. Especially when we are talking about close people who decide to hide some of the information from others. Unfortunately, in most such cases it will not be possible to influence the current situation. But something can be done, regardless of the complexity of the current situation.
So how can I see sent gifts in VK now?
- If you periodically have to remember what gifts you gave and to whom, we do not recommend that you clear your correspondence history for at least a year.
- Go into a dialogue with the user to whom you are going to send a gift, scroll back and see if you have already given him the same gift before. All gifts are displayed in correspondence, including hidden ones.
How can I view sent gifts on VK if they are not hidden and the message history has been deleted?
Usually, doubts arise only among a relatively small number of people. To see if you gave exactly the same gift to your girlfriend for her last birthday, you need to:
- Go to her page.
- There, right under the photo and the list of friends you will see the inscription “gifts”.
List of gifts - By clicking on it, you can see who gave what gifts, when.
Window title with a complete list of gifts
It is useful to view all the gifts of the person you are interested in, even if you sent the gift, hiding your name from strangers. When you see your gift with a hidden name in the general list of gifts, you will most likely remember that it was you who gave it.
This method can become too tedious if you are interested in not just one person, or a small group of friends, but more than a dozen. In this case, page verification may take too long. In addition, some people generally hide all their gifts.
Who sent a gift on VKontakte
This service is a great way to express your feelings and emotions. The recipient of the “present” can easily find out the name of the donor. Actions:
- Go to the “Gifts” tab. It is located on the main profile page on the left side.
- Place the cursor over the received “present”.
- Read the fan's first and last name or his social network nickname.
However, sometimes a secret admirer wishes to remain incognito. In this case, instead of personal data, the message “Unknown sender” will appear. It happens that the following line is indicated: “The message and sender’s name are visible only to you.” This means that the donor decided to remain anonymous to all other friends of the recipient, choosing the option “Show my name only to the recipient” when sending.
How to see hidden gifts in VK using id?
On the Internet you can find a way to view gifts using ID. But let's figure out what it is and whether it's worth doing it. First, let's understand what ID is.
Each user on VK has his own individual number, the so-called id. With its help you can also see his gifts. To do this, you need to know the id. You can do it like this:
- Hover your mouse over “send a gift” and right-click.
"Send Gift" button - A menu will appear in which you need to click on “copy link”.
- Pay attention to the end of the link after vkontakte.ru/gifts.php?to, since these numbers are the id.
- Then type vkontakte.ru/gifts.php?id and add id.
Type the link
Ready! You can see the gifts. If you sent someone a private gift, and your name was hidden from other users, you will also be able to remember your actions and your gift by seeing it among others and looking at the date it was sent. But is it worth doing all this?
After all, it’s much easier, without using an ID, to go to a person’s page and look in the section with his gifts for everything that interests you. If a person hid his gifts, no knowledge of ID will help.
By clicking on this button you will be taken to the settings menu
To hide gifts yourself, go to settings, “Privacy” section and set the corresponding option to “Only me.”
How to find out the unknown sender of a gift on VKontakte?
Probably every user of the social network VKontakte has encountered the fact that an anonymous sender sent him a gift. Of course, a gift from a mysterious stranger haunts you and you are curious about who this person is. Some, having received a gift from an anonymous person, react neutrally, while others are haunted by the thought of who it could be?
It is impossible to officially find out the sender of an anonymous gift.
It would seem that nowadays there are all kinds of special applications through which you can find out everything. But, unfortunately, it is impossible to find out who this mysterious stranger is. Why? The fact is that the developers of this social network have worked carefully to ensure that the anonymous user remains anonymous.
Of course, this is unfair and generally dishonest, but what can you do? No matter how hard you try to find a way out of this situation, nothing will work out. You can find a special program, in the description of which it will be written that you will recognize this mysterious stranger for free.
All programs and services that guarantee you to recognize the anonymous sender are fake and, at best, will simply not show you anything; at worst, they will steal your data.
However, you should not believe this. Such software provokes your curiosity, but does not help in solving your problem. Therefore, you will have to come to terms with the fact that this mysterious admirer will remain unknown. And perhaps this is even for the better.

How to send an anonymous gift on VKontakte
Send an anonymous gift to VK
It won’t work directly, without using little tricks. As we said above, VK has completely removed this function from use. When sending a gift, you can make sure that only the person receiving it sees your name. To send a gift:
- Go to the page of the user you want to please.
- Under his profile, find the item “Send a gift.”
- In front of you you will see sections with gifts. Choose the one that suits the occasion.
- In a separate area with a gift that opens, you can write a message to the recipient. And also add users if you want to send gifts collectively. For example, if two of your friends have a birthday on the same day.
- After the message field, you will notice a gray box that will help you hide your name from everyone except the recipient. Click on it. VK will take you to the field where you can pay for the gift.
After payment, from a card or in sent messages, you will see a report of what you gave, and you will also be able to see exactly what time your friend received his gift. If you want to keep your name secret, then you can send a gift from another page in VK. To do this, you will need another phone number to register another page. On your new profile, leave the first and last name fields blank if possible. Or type in a set of characters that doesn’t mean anything. Go to the profile of the person you intend to send the gift to. Complete all steps to send a gift. This is the only way to send partially anonymous gifts.
How to send free gifts on VKontakte
For those who do not want to spend money, but at the same time want to send a gift, VK has prepared a special promotion. Until August of this year, any user who owns a Visa card can select and send 1 free gift to VK.
All you need to do is link your card to VK. Linking can be done in the gift selection section. In the very first line you will see the word “Promotion”. Expand the arrow pointing to details. Enter the details in this window. To check whether your card is working, VK will write off 1 ruble from it and return it immediately. After this, you can send any gift that you like the most. If you don’t have a Visa card, wait for the next holiday.
But what do you need to know about the function itself? Well, firstly, it doesn’t hurt to find out where the VKontakte gifts are.
Actions with gifts
Now let's move on to the most interesting part, i.e. to the practical part. The first question: “How to send a gift to VKontakte for free?” And here the most important thing is to determine which pictures are, in principle, free. But don’t expect any difficulties: the entire main range is subject to payment. And users can receive free gifts on VKontakte only on certain holidays. For example, on May 9, each social network member has the opportunity to send, for example, 5 St. George ribbons. And if you want to congratulate a friend using internal “Contact” surprises, you will have to pay a minimum of 21 rubles - this is the minimum price of a VK gift at the time of writing.
And since we've moved on to the financial part of the function, let's talk about payment. To pay for the desired surprise picture, you must first top up your VKontakte account. As you know (you know, right??), the internal currency of VK is called “votes”, and after transferring money to your account, the conversion into these same votes automatically occurs. And only then you can safely purchase a paid gift to subsequently send it to your friend. Well, or not to a friend.
And now another important point: confidentiality and hidden gifts. Agree, not everyone wants to show off their gifts.
And not everyone wants to give something to someone openly. Therefore, the VK system allows you to manage privacy settings for both recipients and senders.
Most often, of course, the senders themselves use this function - they make an anonymous surprise. What reasons there are for this is a personal matter for everyone. Maybe a modest lover wants to secretly please his beloved, or he even wants to give himself a gift through another account (officially, you won’t be able to send it to yourself). In any case, already when sending a gift picture, you can select the audience to whom your name will be visible.
And there are several options here:
- the sender's name is visible to everyone;
- only the recipient will know who sent the gift;
- you remain completely anonymous.
So, if you want to hide the name even from the recipient, choose the third option.
As a gift recipient, you can also set your own privacy preferences. The list of donated pictures can only be seen by you, or you and your friends, or also friends of friends, or generally all VK users. Many third-party online services offer to view hidden gifts, but we will talk about how functional they are, and especially how safe they are, in another article. And there we will tell you how to find out the unknown sender of a gift in VK.
In special cases, you can remove the gift. But remember that canceling an action, i.e. You won't be able to get back deleted pictures. Therefore, when deleting, think carefully about everything again.
Let's summarize. Now you know how to send gifts for free, how to pay for them and hide them when sending and receiving. We hope the information will be as useful as possible for you. Well, if you still have questions, post them in the comments!
Many people love gifts - both receiving and giving. But how can we surprise a person who is hundreds, or even thousands of kilometers away from us?

There is an alternative option, a little more modest, but no less pleasant - gifts on VKontakte. And yes, this is the topic of our article today - read on!
