The "Pack N' Go" is a smartphone app designed to help travelers pack carefully and efficiently for their upcoming trips. Travelers can create their own packing list, and then save it to the program, so it is available for all other users to take advantage of. It is designed specifically for you, by people like you.

This idea started from a common problem many people have: forgetting what to pack. This is something that everyone goes through and even the most frequent flyers have that "Did I forget something?" moment. The "Pack N' Go" has evolved from just a concept to a well thought out idea.

By researching similar products on the market I learned what works and what doesn't. I learned that I had to make the app simple so users don't waste time trying to figure out how to use it, but detailed so it has what everyone is looking for. Creating the perfect balance is difficult but necessary.

Through comments I have also gained great insight and awesome ideas. Suggestions such as adding a weather forecast to destinations users are packing for, creating a "LIKE" button, and making lists for specified groups of people (like college students living in dorms) are amazing ideas that the "Pack N' Go" will definitely benefit from.

In order to turn this idea into a reality I will need to use social media to spread the word and help the app gain momentum. As well, an embedded operating system, which is found on smartphones, will be needed for the app to work. A lot of memory is crucial to store all of the information from users posting and sharing their packing lists.
