Do you carefully make a packing list before going away... and hen dutifully destroy it.
What you need to pack for a short business trip, or sun/ski holiday are hardly the same (barring a few essentials). This neat App has it all covered.
What you need to pack for a short business trip, or sun/ski holiday are hardly the same (barring a few essentials). This neat App has it all covered.
Now for the ACIDS test:
Aesthetics
There are a few default lists that have been prepared for you as starting points or, if you would prefer, just start a completely new list by pressing the '+'. You are now about to create your first packing list.
Let's use the 'Business Trip' as our template.
Tapping the pencil icon allows you to change the name of any item, as well as add quantities.
Pressing the '+' again will allow you to create new items... how about trying that and adding iPad to 'Essentials'.
Any item you do not require, just scroll left and 'put aside'.
You very rapidly end up with a list that makes your packing much easier.
Once that's done, simply touch to the left of the item you have actually packed.
The great thing is that the list can be made to reappear just by pressing the refresh icon.
Cost
The App is a low cost $1.
Indispensability
How much time to you spend writing the same (or very similar) packing lists. Surely not doing that is worth the $1.
Dependability
The App works fine on both iPhone and iPad.
Security
No issues.
