## What is Perch?

Every business trip, something ends up in your bag that was already waiting for you at the other end.

Perch works differently: it remembers what's already at each place you keep going back to, then works out what this trip actually needs.

To pack = (packing template × days) − (what's already there)

■ A live inventory for each base
Set up "the Shanghai flat", "the dorm in Thailand" or "my parents' place" as bases, each with its own list of what's there. Add items by typing, voice or photo. Mark consumables like toothpaste or contact-lens solution and set a low-stock threshold.

■ Delta packing (the part no one else does)
Pick a base and dates; the number of days is worked out for you. Per-day items scale with the trip — four days means four of each. Anything already at the base stays off your packing list and goes into a collapsible "Already there" section, so you can leave it behind with confidence.

■ Shopping list
Whatever you're not bringing and the base doesn't have — or a consumable that's running low — lands on a shopping list automatically.

■ Check out when you leave
Take / leave / used up: tap through and the base's inventory updates. Used-up consumables show up on the next shopping list. That loop is what keeps the inventory "live".

■ Good & bad places map
One tap where you stand to log a spot as good or bad, tied automatically to the nearest base. "Never again" is a first-class tag here.

■ Your data stays on your phone
No account, no sign-up, no cloud sync. Your bases, items and trips live only on this device and are included in your phone's own iCloud backup; you can export a backup file at any time.

Every feature unlocked, unlimited bases. Contains ads.
