Revisit old highlights, find a line you remember, or turn a favorite passage into a card worth sharing.

Emergency preparedness without the anxiety. ReadyKit turns getting ready into a few calm, practical steps. Build a kit from a ready-made template, see exactly how much water and food your household needs, and keep track of what expires so nothing is out of date the day you reach for it. What you get: - Four complete templates: home, car, go-bag, and a family-size 72-hour kit. Each one is a real list with quantities and a short note, grounded in common preparedness guidance. - Water and food math done for you. About one gallon of water and two thousand calories per person per day, scaled to the number of people, pets, and days you set. - Expiry tracking with gentle rotation reminders, so food, water, and batteries get swapped before they go bad. - A readiness score for each kit and for your whole household, with a clear view of what is stocked and what needs rotating. - An expiry timeline and readiness charts, so you can see the state of every kit at a glance. - A family plan card: your out-of-area contact, the numbers that matter, and where to meet if you cannot get home. - A printable checklist for any kit, plus a household preparedness PDF you can keep or share. - One replenishment list combining shortages, expired supplies, and upcoming rotations across every kit (Pro). - Guided household drills with a saved practice history (Pro). - An Essentials Check that keeps water, food, first aid, medication, light, and communication gaps visible even when checklist completion is high (Pro). - A shareable Family Quick Card with the out-of-area contact and meeting places on the opening screen (Pro). - A Leave Now Checklist with five calm, practical actions for a quick departure. - Utility Shutoff Notes that brings the locations and instructions saved in your family plan into the Use Now hub. - A Medication and Documents Watch that finds shortages and expiry concerns across every kit. - Syncs across iPhone, iPad, and Mac with iCloud. - Private by design: no account, no ads, no tracking. Free and Pro: ReadyKit is free to use with one kit. A single one-time Lifetime purchase opens every kit and template, the household report, the replenishment list, and household drills. It is not a subscription and never renews. The purchase screen shows the live localized StoreKit price. Informational use only. The built-in templates follow common preparedness guidance and are general information, not professional or safety advice. Always follow the instructions of your local authorities in an emergency.
