Time2Pack is an all-in-one app for your travel needs for iPhone and iPad, offering a robust packing list feature, packing guides, flight tracking, and more. It is the perfect travel companion, taking away much of the stress that can come with planning a trip.
Highlights
One of the main features of Time2Pack is the ability to easily create a packing list. One of the main concerns when traveling for many people is definitely packing, and making sure that you don’t accidentally forget something important. The app offers robust packing lists with features that help you create a packing list based on your destination, activities, and the length of your trip.
Once you have created your packing list, the app breaks things down into categories and separates packed items from unpacked items, making it very user-friendly.
Additionally, the app has a nice overview UI that shows you the weather at your destination for the days of your trip. You can also track your flight, view all the photos you took during your trip, save documents, and take notes – making it a handy hub for all things travel.
About Time2Pack
Time2Pack was developed in 2022 after co-founders (and partners) Kate and Alex went on a last-minute trip and ended up forgetting some important items. The mistake ended up costing them around €200, as well as requiring a full day of travel to find the items! As a result, they set about creating, and Time2Pack launched in January 2023, focusing only on the packing list aspects of packing. It's obviously grown since then.
They recently updated their payment model and most features are now available for free, including unlimited trips, packing list suggestions, and more. With the Pro plan, you unlock unlimited flight tracking (up from only the first 2 flights free), flight change/delay notifications, and some extra features like customization.
Download the app
Time2Pack is available on the App Store for free with most features, and you can subscribe to Pro for $1.99 per month, $9.99 for 6 months, or $14.99 per year. You'll need an iPhone or iPad running iOS 15 or later. It is also compatible with macOS and visionOS as an iPad app.
