Tap + at the top right. You can name it — “Lisbon, September” — or leave the name blank and take the name of whichever starting point you pick. Nine lists come pre-written; Empty list starts from nothing.
Type in the field at the bottom and press return. It stays put and keeps the keyboard, because adding one thing usually means adding four.
Two shortcuts: 3 socks adds three socks, and so does
socks x3. A number too big to be a count is left alone, so
2026 diary is a diary and not two thousand of them.
It bumps the row you already have rather than making a second one — and unticks it, because more of something you had packed means you are not finished with it. Case and a trailing “s” do not matter: “Sock” and “socks” are the same thing.
Tap anywhere on the row. The row does not move afterwards, deliberately: a list that reorders itself under your thumb is one where the next tap lands on the wrong thing.
Swipe a row right and choose Edit, or hold it and choose Edit, then type a heading. Anything you type becomes a heading. The chips under the field are the headings that list already uses, so you can tap one instead of spelling it again.
If the list already has a heading the words belong under, new rows go there — “passport” lands under Documents if that list has a Documents heading. It only ever uses headings you have already written; it will not invent one. On a list with no headings, everything stays unfiled, which is what a plain list should be.
Tap the heading itself — the “…” after the name means it does something — and choose Rename or Remove heading. Every row under it comes along. The same two are under Headings in the list's … menu.
Renaming a heading to the name of another heading merges the two.
Remove heading does exactly that: the rows stay on the list, just unfiled.
In the list's … menu, choose Clear ticks. Every item stays; only what you had packed is forgotten. This is the whole point of the app — the list is ready for the next trip.
Duplicate list gives you a copy with nothing ticked, so you can delete the four things this trip does not need without touching the original.
Choose Reorder in the … menu, then drag by the handles. Dragging works inside a heading; to move a row to a different heading, edit the row and change its heading.
Not in this version.
No. Everything is stored on the one iPhone, and the app makes no network requests at all. If you restore that iPhone from an iCloud backup your lists come back with it.
