Packing for trips can be stressful at times. PackGoat makes the process much easier, and utilizes Apple Intelligence to help make just the right list for your trip – even down to the weight.
Highlights
In PackGoat, you can create your trip, define the purpose, outline your planned activities, and share your exact dates. Then, based on that information – it can use Apple Intelligence and WeatherKit data to create an appropriate packing list. It’ll even keep in mind TSA limits for things like toiletries – and even provides some pointers based on your plans.
If you don’t have an Apple Intelligence capable device (or don’t want to use the AI feature), you can also pick from some templates that’ll help guide your packing list. Users can even create their own templates to reuse on later trios.
Lastly, you can share your trips with friends and family, allowing them to see the created packing list and plan accordingly. When you share, it only shares the items you selected for the packing list, but they’re able to tick off their own items independently.
Download the app
PackGoat is available for free on the App Store with all core features for iPhone and iPad users running iOS 26 and later. For unlimited trips/templates and iCloud Sync, you can check out PackGoat Pro for $3.99/week or $29.99 for a lifetime purchase.
