Best app for packing

I purchased Packr Premium several years ago and absolutely love it. I had a problem when I deleted this app off of my iPad and thought I had lost all my lists, but the developer fixed it within a day. I use this app for all of my trips because I love the weather forecasts which help me know how to pack. I also have saved customized packing list for different activities like backpacking or international travel. I have recommended this app to several travel buddies who were green with envy when they saw all it could do. If you travel, itโ€™s worth every penny.

Amazing packing app

I was packing for Coachella and this made my life so much easier because I was dealing with a health problem that made me very uncomfortable and not feel like myself. A month or so in advance, I was brainstorming things I wanted to pack and had come up with a preliminary list. Then as I was packing for the few days before leaving for the trip, I was adding as I went. Finally I finished everything on my list and I didnโ€™t know what else to bring. I had to sleep and then leave in 6 hours lol. It was great!! I didnโ€™t forget anything.

I really like the layout of this app. Sometimes it can get confusing with lists and removing stuff in lists it asks you if you want it removed forever, i just ignore them and it seems to work out fine since i dont really need to pack for trips that frequently. It works well for when you want an app thatโ€™s not your Notes or Reminders app

Long term trips not catered - 15?Bras?

Going away for 3 months and doesnโ€™t seem to take that into account. Suggests 15 bras and then when you have a look, gives you bizarre color choices. Definitely designed by men.

Also, tells you the temp now but not in July when you are actually there. Not helpful. Hoping it would help design packaging for cool weather (spring) and then summer. Very simple app - feels like it was created in the 1990s.

Because it is a multiple trip, made me pay up front. Thought it worthwhile investment but itโ€™s not. If you want to try it, break up your destinations to single trips before committing your money.

Thank you for your review ๐Ÿ˜‡

Very helpful

Iโ€™ve been using this app for several years now and Iโ€™ve come to rely on it greatly for making packing smooth! The interface is much better than other packer apps out there. Highly recommend!!

Horrible AD experience, keep away!

This app USED to be good until it became bloatware. I got spammed with 4 different kind of ads in one minute. Thatโ€™s not how you go about encouraging people to go Premium. This is basically bullying. Instant DELETE. Shame on you, devs.

Quits Unexpectedly

I really like this app, but recently it has been quiting after i enter the location and date - it isnt anything to do with the location / date becuase i have tried changing both...
If this could be fixed that would be greatly appreciated becuse i am going away in april and i need to use the app...

Glitchy app

Free edition shows ads, I watch them both. The โ€˜xโ€™ in the top corner is hidden behind my battery display, therefore unreachable. Cannot turn the screen orientation to reach it. Stuck over and over again. Closed and opened the app to the same thing. Feels like it is forcing you to pay for Premium. I would rather you make it a paid app than con people into watching ads with unreachable prompts to the next steps. Used to use this ad and have recommended all of my friends this app over the years but would rather move onto another app

Everything thatโ€™s wrong with the app economy

Non-paid version had ads. Sure, Iโ€™ll watch an ad and use the app once or twice to see if itโ€™s any good, then lโ€™ll pay for it. Nope. Itโ€™s literally a hellscape of ads crowding on top of ads. Watch the video and there are three other ads on top that you canโ€™t get rid of. The worst. Donโ€™t bother.

Great resource

I love this app for packing lists. I have used TripIt for a couple years for keeping track of travel info. This works well with that to help me prep and pack for those trips. Iโ€™m he suggested lists consider weather and what I will be doing (after I make selections) to make the list very practical. I can also add my own notes and modify the list as I see fit. I also love the ability to share a list. Iโ€™m his has been helpful for my husband and me as we can just check that app and make updates (instead of assuming the other grabbed it or grabbing double.)

The only addition that would have been helpful for this trip is a section for pets. I could be similar to the section for babies, but including things like food, leash, crate, meds, etc. would be super helpful for those of us who have pets but donโ€™t always travel with them.
