Never walk out without your charger again. Corgo is the loyal little sidekick that makes "did I pack everything?" a calm, one-tap checklist β€” and nudges you at exactly the right moment. BUILD YOUR KIT β€’ Make a checklist of the gear you can't leave behind β€” laptop charger, cables, dongles, keys, meds, anything. β€’ Start from a ready-made kit (Conference, CafΓ© day, Red-eye flight, Gym, Photo shoot…), generate one on-device from a quick description, or build your own. β€’ Keep several kits and switch between them in a tap. PACK IT OFF β€’ A charge ring shows how ready you are at a glance. β€’ Tap each item to check it off; everything left is what you still need to grab. β€’ Finish the kit and enjoy a little celebration β€” packing, done. REMINDED AT THE RIGHT TIME β€’ Pack reminders fire on your schedule (the night before a trip, every weekday morning β€” your call). β€’ Reminder profiles let you keep an everyday set and a temporary one for trips. β€’ Unplug reminder: the moment you switch to battery, get a nudge to grab your charger. β€’ Low-battery reminder so you find a charger before it's too late. REMINDED AT THE RIGHT PLACE β€’ Save places like your office, the gym, or a cafΓ©. Corgo reminds you to grab your gear as you leave β€” even with the app closed. EVERYWHERE YOU ARE β€’ Track your packing live in the Dynamic Island and on the Lock Screen, even after you close the app. β€’ Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets show your readiness. β€’ Apple Watch app, a Mac menu-bar app, and Apple Vision Pro. β€’ Your kits and reminders sync across your devices through iCloud. β€’ Make it yours with color and font themes. PRIVATE BY DESIGN β€’ No accounts, no ads, no tracking. Your kits stay on your devices and in your own iCloud β€” we never collect your data. Pack your gear. Forget nothing.
