Until this upcoming trip, I have only been traveling fairly close to home so I didn’t sweat it too much on what I packed. If I missed something, I always knew I could find it at a local Walmart.

This time I’m traveling internationally, so I started hunting for apps that could help with my trip.

I was looking for an app that could keep track of the items I had in each bag just so I didn’t forget anything when repacking them, how much each item weighed so I had a sense of how much my bags weighed since Airlines charge overage fees, and could create lists not only for me, but for my fellow travelers.

After looking around the App Store at free and paid packing list applications I finally decided on a paid application.

I ended up with Packing Pro by quinnscape.com

This app meets my need and more.

I’m still exploring all the features, but so far one of its features I think has saved me.  It has an Expert Assistance feature that asked a few questions and helped generate a list of possible items for me to take from its Master Catalog list of packing items.  I used this to generate not only my list, but my daughters, who will be joining me on this trip.  Not being female, I do not think of all the possible things that they may need to take with them, this program helped me give them a starting list of things to consider packing, of which many I would never have thought of.

It even gives lists of things that you may need to do before you even start packing.

This is just one of its many features, I would recommend it to anyone. Before you buy this modestly priced app, visit their website as they have a much more detail description.

As of this writing, this is an IOS only App and is $2.99 as of this posting for the pro version, which I think is a steal for this app.
