iPhone
Snap your gear. Pack it. Share it. Every tent, quilt, and titanium spork you own, with its real name, weight, and price, ready for the next trip.
Point your camera. We do the rest.
For backpackers, campers, climbers, anglers, one bag travelers, anyone whose weekends need a pile of gear. Most of us track that pile in a spreadsheet we stopped updating, or not at all, which is exactly how the headlamp stays home. Photograph your gear instead and it lands on one wall, named and weighed, ready to pack for the next trip.
SNAP
No model numbers to look up, no weights to type in. Point the camera at one piece of gear, or lay the whole pile out on the floor and shoot it in a single photo.
IDENTIFY
Packbook works out the real name, the brand, the specs, the weight and the price. If it picks the wrong one, the other candidates are one tap away, and you can rename anything whenever you like.
ONE PLACE FOR ALL YOUR GEAR
Everything you own on a single wall, on shelves you choose. Search it, sort it by weight, and see what the whole collection weighs and what it is worth.
PACK
Pour a kit. Watch the weight. Build your camp kitchen or your climbing rack once, then pour it into any trip after that. Check things off as they go in the bag. Run Pack check before you leave and it says what is missing, keeping the things that would ruin the trip apart from the things that would just be nice to have.
SHARE
Send your pack as a page this pretty. One link, your whole pack: stickers, weights, the works. Your friend taps once and the same list is in their app.
DISCOVER
Real packing lists from real trips, published by other people. Open one, see every item with its weight, and take the whole list into your own app with one tap.
SHOP
Tap the gear. Find where to buy. Current prices from several sellers, cheapest marked, for the country you shop in. Packbook also speaks up when you are about to buy something you already own.
ALSO

Home Screen, Lock Screen and Control Center shortcuts open the camera.
