Why Packy Wins
Use Forever
Create a beach vacation list once, use it for every beach trip. Just uncheck items and you're ready to pack again.
Pack Together
Share lists with family or travel partners. Everyone can check off their items. No more "did you pack the sunscreen?" questions.
Always Available
Your phone is always with you. Access your list at home, at the store, or doing a final check at the hotel.
The Problem with Paper Lists
Start from scratch every time
Rewrite the same items for every trip, wasting time and risking forgetting essentials.
Easy to lose or damage
Coffee spill, rain, or just losing the paper means starting over.
No collaboration
Can't easily share or coordinate with travel companions.
Hard to organize
Long lists become unwieldy without categories or search.
"I used to forget something every trip. Since switching to Packy, I haven't forgotten a single item. The reusable lists are a game-changer."
