### 4/5 — Get packed

*2016-01-25, version 7.0.1*

A useful and effective app. I use it every time I go away.

### 4/5 — Gavalar

*2015-01-25, version 6.0.2*

A good App-a bit slow to sync' compared to other Apple based platforms-but not a show stopper ! It's good to have a dedicated App for travel lists and the ability to sync/e mail plus 'easy to add' photos makes all the difference - well done !

### 4/5 — Excellent app

*2013-08-29, version 5.0.1*

Very good app organises you well ready for your holidays well done

### 4/5 — Zeer goede app

*2013-02-08, version 4.1.2*

Goede, makkelijke app. Ook met meerdere personen te gebruiken.

### 4/5 — Love this app

*2012-08-26, version 4.0*

Like another reviewer I couldn't delete or amend the lists, so I contacted the support e-mail address and got a reply back very quickly - was very impressed by that as I have contacted other app support in the past and never had any response at all so 10 out of 10 for that.  I had been trying to delete and edit when my Ipad needed charging but once this had been done I found that the editing worked well.  And so I now love this app.  Hopefully I will never again get where i'm gong and find I haven't got what I need.

### 4/5 — Great App but slightly confusing to start with

*2012-08-18, version 4.0*

This is a great App and I have just completed my first holiday listing for a 2 week cruise so there are lots of different items needed. The program worked very well and handled everything very well. The reason for not giving 5 stars is like a previous reviewer I did find it confusing to start with and I also cannot find a way to delete things. I think with a few tweaks and a bit of refinement this App would certainly be a 5 star for me.

### 4/5 — Useful!

*2012-08-06, version 4.0*

Très pratique, complet et utile! Excellent!!! 
Une traduction française serait très appréciée.

### 4/5 — Unilingue

*2012-07-21, version 4.0*

Dommage qu'on ne puisse l'avoir en français se serait beaucoup plus pratique que de se recreais des listes.

### 5/5 — Get packet

*2012-05-24, version 3.0.1*

Awesome app! Can use it for all the holidays I go on, I would recommend this app If you go away often, I'm going to use the same list lots of time! Great app!

### 5/5 — A really useful App

*2012-05-20, version 3.0.1*

As somebody that works away from home every week I really appreciate having a list that I can refer to over and over again. The only improvement would be the ability to clear all ticks from a list do you can use it afresh - currently I use the same list the flowing week by removing the ticks from the previous week's list as I pack.

### 5/5 — The best one

*2012-05-06, version 3.0.1*

I've tried a few but this is the best in my opinion.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2012-03-30, version 3.0.1*

This is a great app.  Really clever how the answers you provide to the initial questions starts your list with certain items.  Items can then be edited / added to by the user.  I normally hate packing, but this is going to make it much easier!

### 5/5 — Great

*2012-03-29, version 3.0.1*

This is a great application. Gets me organized effortlessly. Can be sure I've taken and done things as it should be.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Good concept, sloppy finish

*2013-10-12, version 5.0.1*

App keeps crashing while I personalize my list. A pity, because I had high hopes of making my packing easier!

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2013-09-10, version 5.0.1*

Crashes every time I try to create a packing list. Liked the design and the items listed all seem good, but that's all irrelevant if I can't actually use it!!  Don't waste your money.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2011-04-18*

I am so very disappointed in this app.  I did not find it easy to use.  I could probably make it work but I would have to spend way too much time.  I have used many free apps that work better than this.  Not worth the money.

### 1/5 — A waste of money

*2010-07-14*

The app is waste of money

### 2/5 — Now abandoned by developer

*2022-10-19, version 7.0.5*

I loved this app and used it religiously for all travel for about 8 years. Sadly, it has now been abandoned by the developer, so really annoying bugs like the category titles getting stuck in the middle of the screen got on my nerves enough that I have given up. I have just tried 6 other apps and none do the job for a family quite as well, so it’s disappointing, but I guess I can’t really expect them to keep up maintenance forever.

### 2/5 — Doesn’t scroll well

*2018-08-21, version 7.0.4*

This app would make packing easy if it would scroll when I run my finger over it. However it doesn’t. It’s a bug that could be sorted. Good product.....get it working.

### 2/5 — Don't get it

*2012-07-26, version 4.0*

This app has such great reviews i bought it. But it's confusing. First, there's no sync between iPad and iPhone. Second i can't find a way to delete packing lists. I experimented and accidentally have loads of packing lists now. Need to delete them, but how? Third, on the iPad i couldn't find any way of changing the descriptions of packing lists- it seems to auto name them according to the place and dates which is fine, but you might want to customise the name.  I am sure it can be helpful so i have given two stars, but these are flaws which make it non user friendly and i found this out just in the first moments for trying it out. They should offer a one day free trial. It's a rip off and the bad grammar in the pop up instructions is not confidence inspiring.

### 2/5 — Nog sterk aan verbetering toe

*2011-06-13, version 3.0.0*

Functioneel zit het goed in mekaar maar de app is zeer onstabiel (schakelt zichzelf regelmatig uit) en mijn inziens onvoldoende getest. Als ik vb pakkist aanvul met bijkomend item voor specifieke reisgezel moet ik eerst de app reboaten alvorens nieuw item werkelijk op zijn naam verschijnt. Deze bugs zijn vervelend en hadden er moeten uit zijn bij de testen.

### 3/5 — Disappointing

*2013-05-28, version 4.1.2*

The transfer file to/from iPad to iPhone does not work. File is not recognised. Developers don't seem bothered as it has been like this since at least February.

### 3/5 — Good Idea

*2013-03-17, version 4.1.2*

A bit buggy with room for improvement but an essential if forgetful like me.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Really useful

*2019-02-07, version 7.0.5*

Great app. Going to Greece for 2 weeks. Really useful and customisable. I really liked the auto generated of things to remember. Easily worth the paltry pittance that they are charging.

### 5/5 — Very difficult to find fault

*2017-05-01, version 7.0.1*

I have used this app for several years for different kinds of trips and find it indispensable. 
Once you get the hang of it and adapt it for your language (it doesn't use English English, it uses American English but that's fine once you have changed the meanings once - from pants to trousers for instance - you can use previous lists as a start for future lists) and it saves them all in iCloud so I still have all my lists. Just make sure you don't tick something off before it is definitely in the bag! No socks in Italy last year!
Going to look at the photo app by the same developer.

### 5/5 — Very nice

*2014-04-14*

I’ve looked at (and paid $ for) a bunch of these packing apps.  This one is the best one I’ve run across.  Ease of use, sophistication, and beautiful interface.  The problems with most of the others has been bugs and quirkiness.

We’ll see if GetPacked is more robust.  For now, I give it 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Absolutely brilliant !

*2013-08-21, version 5.0.1*

This is genuinely one of those "how did I manage without it" apps. Excellent range of built in items and clever enough to know what you are likely to need. The ability to add those peculiarly personal items, as well as being able to customise the To Do list means it is flexible enough to cope with any eventuality. Fantastic.....

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2013-07-22, version 4.1.2*

Best app ever!!!!!

### 5/5 — Superhandig

*2012-10-23, version 4.0*

Echt leuk voor de mama's. Je kan zelf dingen toevoegen nadat de app adhv jouw bestemming een packlist maakt. Persoonlijk print ik hem altijd en dan maar lekker afstrepen!

### 5/5 — Very complete list

*2012-07-22, version 4.0*

You input information on your trip and it builds a very exhaustive packing list. Easy to use and you can modify the list

### 5/5 — Great app

*2012-07-21, version 4.0*

I think this app is a fabulous product. If you are a list person you will love it. Already feel more organised for my holiday

### 5/5 — Super useful

*2012-07-16, version 4.0*

Brilliant app, I hardly ever write reviews but wanted to share that this is great - does exactly what I wanted, helps me organise, is easy to use, I can customise where i want and is a good looking practical tool. Love it.

### 5/5 — Brilliant app and support

*2012-07-02, version 4.0*

Brilliant app. I've had this app a few months now and this is the best packing app by far, and I've tried a few. Excellent support.  If you're looking for a packing app then this is the one to buy. A very satisfied customer.
