PackMate helps friends split the packing list before a trip, camping weekend, or group getaway. Create a trip, add what needs to be brought, invite friends with a code, and let everyone claim what they can bring. If an item needs more than one unit, each person can choose how many they will cover, and PackMate keeps the remaining quantity unassigned until the list is complete. Key features: - Apple and Google sign-in only - Shared trip packing lists - Invite-code based group joining - Quantity-based item claiming - Clear unassigned item tracking - Profile nickname and compact profile photo - Account deletion from inside the app PackMate is built for the practical moment before departure: fewer repeated messages, fewer forgotten items, and a packing list everyone can trust.
