What’s New
Version 1.0.4
Some bugs were eaten by our favourite packupine:
• fixes bug that would not allow composer to work
• allows entry of proper weights again (please use a . as decimal separator, even in metric countries)
• now requires iOS 13.2
More soon - thanks for waiting, and we apologize for the inconveniences!
Ratings and Reviews
Not too valuable
Basically the app is a list of possible items to take on a trip depending on travel days and estimated weight of each item. It provides your overall target weight and estimated weight by item. App value is in providing list of potential trip items. Individual item weight is an average (I guess) as people’s sizes are different and some materials weight more than others. A pair of jeans usually weights more than a light weight travel pants but there is no differentiation in the app as it says “pants” only.
While marginally useful most of what it offers is easily managed without the app. E.g. decide what you want to take and then weight the bag. If heavier than you would like adjust the items and re-weigh. For a list of possible items to take use common sense or get recommendations from web sites like Rick Steves.
For really traveling light
this app is a big help. Took me a couple of practice runs to learn how to use it effectively, but now I have a good idea of exactly how much my suitcase and personal item will weigh when completely packed. And that helps me fight the “might need this” additions that result in overpacking. Would like to be able to edit (rearrange) the items in my near-final list, but except for that omission I’m really happy with this app.
Fantastic app for traveling LIGHT !
I hauled 70 pounds of luggage around the US last Fall so I had everything I needed. Ugh! What a nightmare! After watching a Rick Steve’s video on packing light by the amazing Sarah (who helped design this app) I will finally be able to travel light to Europe! A 20 pound goal !! It’s easy to customize every item I want to take, complete with photo and EXACT weight. Then I check off everything I want to take (in the app) and it totals my weight. Then I start deleting items on the app until I hit the goal weight! Much easier than weighing your suitcase a dozen times or more. Just wish the info on my iPad would share with my phone.
