Love to travel

I’ve been using this app for the last year or two and quite pleased with it’s ease-of-use. I’ve never forgotten a thing that I needed and I love the fact that you can add things that may not be listed.

I just purchased the premium version and have only one minor concern. I just used the app and after I have set it all up and added new things, I realized that the dates were incorrect. I could not find anywhere to change the dates other than re-doing it…which I was not about to do. This seems like an easy change and I hope you can accommodate me on this with a fix.

Other than that I love this app and highly recommend it. Thanks for a super app!

Overall good but the UI needs refinement

My initial review of this app wasn’t quite fair. There were some capabilities I didn’t think it had but it did – they were just harder to find than I thought. Biggest issues are some inefficiencies in the user interface. One big one – PackPoint always wants to drop you into the screen for creating a packing list, even when that’s not what you want to do and there’s no way out of it until you create a list. Then you have to go back and delete the unwanted list it forced you to create! Other annoyances are 1) entering dates one field at a time instead of using a calendar selector; 2) the weather display looks like a day forecast but isn’t; 3) the weather display also needs to allow you to click thru to a multi day forecast covering your trip; 3) it really needs to let you modify the names of items in an activity as well as change the ordering, like you can in an actual packing list. There are a lot of other UI annoyances. They’re all small, but collectively they make the app more tedious than it needs to be.

A great resource for travel

Pack Point not only ensures you don’t forget anything crucial, it can prevent over-packing. It’s worth the annual fee to be able to fully customize it for activities such as bird-watching, ballroom dance events, Civil War re-enacting or what-have-you. It can take a little time to create your specialized lists, but you never have to do it again. It’s easy to hide things you don’t need — like bug spray in winter — or to add particular items for a certain trip. A truly great app!

Pack Point Travel Packing List

This is a unique and resourceful application that not only takes some of the guesswork out of planning and packing for a leisure or business trip but allows users to customize the results so you can get as close to possible as being prepared as you can. The design has a harmonious light color tone which is tranquil. It is easy to navigate and follow step by step when trip lists are generated from the user’s input. The app even has integration with services such as Evernote which could come in handy on business trips. For those who travel a fair amount or more Pack Point is well worth a download.
