Overview
Checked is a travel packing app built to make preparing luggage faster and more reliable. Its clean interface helps users assemble complete packing lists, avoid common omissions, and better control bag weight to prevent extra airline fees. The app supports adaptable packing templates so lists can be tailored to any trip.
Core capabilities
- Customizable trip templates for different travel types
- A searchable collection of 100+ frequently forgotten items
- One-tap addition of items into specific bags
- A visual bag-packing system that highlights unpacked items
- Sortable packing lists so you can view items by category, priority, or bag
- Ability to copy entire trips for repeat journeys
- Track item values to simplify insurance claims and loss reports
- Tools to help minimize the chance of overweight baggage charges
How the packing workflow functions
Checked uses a bag-centric approach: you assign items to particular bags and the app shows what’s still missing from each one. Filters and sorting let you view your list by criteria such as item type, importance, or assigned bag, making it simple to focus on what matters for that itinerary. Templates speed up setup while remaining fully editable.
Managing trips and valuables
You can duplicate a trip to reuse settings and lists for future travel, saving setup time. For insurance or claim purposes, the app provides fields to record item values and descriptions so you have an organized inventory if something is lost or damaged.
Alternatives and cost
If you’re exploring other options, consider DASH Tampa — a free alternative that some travelers prefer for basic list-making and route planning. Depending on your needs (simplicity versus advanced inventory features), either Checked or DASH Tampa could be a good fit.
