I've never met anyone who enjoys packing.

I'm the worst at it. The night before every trip, I'm standing in front of an open suitcase at 11 PM, wondering what I'm forgetting. Every trip it's the same: I either forget something or overpack. Usually both.

The problem isn't that packing is hard. It's that you start your packing list from scratch every single time. You don't remember what you packed last trip. You don't know if you're overpacking. You don't know where to start. So you throw in everything just in case, and hope for the best.

So I built PackGoat!

The core idea is simple: pack once, reuse forever. Build a "Toiletries" template, a "Hiking Gear" template, whatever you pack regularly. Next trip, just add your templates and you're done in minutes.

You also know exactly how heavy your bag is before you leave, not at the airport scale. No more overweight baggage fees or an aching back on the trail.

Going away for a week instead of a weekend? Your packing list adjusts automatically. No math, no guessing.

Not sure what to bring? Enter your destination and travel dates. PackGoat builds a packing list based on real weather data, so you're not packing a rain jacket for a heat wave.

I built this as a solo developer with Swift and SwiftUI because I genuinely needed it. Turns out other people did too. If packing stresses you out the same way it stressed me, give PackGoat a try. It's free on the App Store.
