ToPack: Trip Packing Checklist 4+

Great app but latest version unusable if iCloud sync is on

Crashes immediately on iOS 15.6. Can only get app to start by going into airplane mode and turning off that setting. Hoping for a fix soon.

Would otherwise be 4 stars as it’s been a great tool the several times I’ve used it. Especially useful for repeat trips. Loses one star for only offering support via Twitter.

Import and export of lists to other programs is possible!

Aside from the super responsive support by the developer I very much like the fact that I can sync everything with iCloud so I can have my lists on my iPhone *and* my iPad. The iPad version works in horizontal mode which most other apps don’t support. I can also customize about everything – the colors of my lists and the colors if my categories. The most important feature for me is the ability to export lists to my computer as .csv files so my lists are never stuck here. I can also import .csv files that I have saved from Excel, Numbers or Google Sheets. This app is ingenious and I use it not only for packing my next trip. The little happy figure in the icon puts me into a good mood every time I launch the app. Bravo!

Developer Response ,

Thank you for feedback and your help!

Not quick and easy to use

I want to quickly be able to add and remove checklist items and use one checklist as a template to create another. This app makes you go through too many manual efforts to create categories and things. Sure, you can import pre-defined stuff. But then I have to manually delete the items that are not applicable. (and deleting is one at a time with a confirmation prompt). Would be better if I can easily just import a text list, but I can’t.

For my needs, it is a hundred times easier to instead use IOS Notes with the checklist feature.
