Pushing to the app stores right now is our latest update! Should be live in Android App Store today and maybe even the apple app store (Apple has been getting quicker at reviews).
Latest update adds summary cards to your Gear locker. This allows you to see basic stats about the items you own. It also allows you to filter your gear locker easily by Category, Item Type or Manufacturer by taping the bar graphs like you can already do with the pack summary cards.
Hope you enjoy the update!
Another update going out tonight to the app stores for approval:
Under the hood fixes mostly for our European friends or anyone not using pounds and ounces. There were some ever slightly small rounding errors when looking at total weight and summary cards for a pack. This update should fix those small rounding errors which add up with a lot of gear.
Lately I have been working on a lot of code clean up and back end changes that you all will not really see but will have huge benefits for you all. Unfortunately while doing that I broke the community gear locker search for about 24 hours (Sorry about that). It is now fixed, so please update to the latest version to make sure you have that fix.
Secondly the changes I made in the background was more for me to be able to more quickly conduct admin tasks. If you do not know I screen all the items before they go into the public gear locker, so that it doesn't get crazy with lots of duplicates etc. With the large influx of users lately, I have not been able to keep up with approving gear locker additions, new items are being added to quickly by you all (Thanks!).
In the latest release I can now approve new additions to the community gear locker much quicker!
Another small update pushed out today. Live in Android app store, waiting for the iOS review still.
LAtest update adds onboarding to the app. When you first open the app there will be a few screens that give you a high level overview of how the app works. This is to help new users get acquainted with the app quicker.
Adding user names! Apologies if you just went through the new onboarding screens, you will need to one more time to set your username ;-)
User names at this time just show up under the pack description on public packs in the "Find Packs" section. This is just the beginning, lots more to come :-)
Currently live on Android, Apple should be live sometime today!
Last updates I added usernames, and this update starts to take advantage of them!
Now when viewing a public pack from a user, you will see their username in the bottom left hand corner. You can now tap their username and go to their public user profile. The public user profile is very simple right now and shows a list of that users public packs!
Much more planned for the user profile in the future!
I realized I didn't post the last update in here which I pushed out on 9/23/2024 which added gear notes! You can now add gear notes and filter items by searching gear notes as well:
Additionally today I pushed another small update that gives user feedback when swipping on a gear item in a pack to mark it as packed. Swipe right to pack and left to un-pack:
Fun Christmas update, if you are a pro user who has uploaded images you can now create and share your own Gear Layouts of your pack! Here is mine from my Cactus to Clouds hike:
You can select the Gear Collage from the 3 dot menu while viewing any pack. It will create the collage on all items with an uploaded image.
It initially create a randomized collage, but you can edit to your liking. Drag images to move them around, pinch and zoom to enlarge or shrink image and rotate them.
I found pinch and zoom difficult on smaller images, so you can tap an image to bring up manual controls for fine tuning. Hope you all enjoy!
Can’t wait to see what gear layouts that you all make from your adventures!
New update live for Android and pending approval for iOS! You can now wishlist items while browsing public packs. There have been a number of times where I have been browsing another pack in the app and thought to myself I would love that piece of gear, or that looks cool I want to look into it more. Now you can tap the item and then add it to your wish list.
Additionally while browsing others packs you would only see the gear name, manufacturer, quantity and weight. Some times you had no idea what the item was if it wasn't intuitive from the item name. Now when you tap the item you can get all the details including item type and pack category.
Once you add items to your wish list you can find the list in the app settings!
New update live for Android and pending review for iOS (Should be live by Monday). Latest update ads an option to change the images that appear on gear to smaller images to condense the list in your packs more.
This is just the start fro different view options, I plan on adding a compact mode as well. Enjoy the small images for now!
I had a few users request a more compact view mode to use on smaller screens. Been working on this the past week, along with a bunch of small bug fixes that are also released today.
Update is live on Android right now and will be live on iOS later today or early tomorrow morning. Go check out the compact view in settings!
On my Pixel 9 Pro I can now see 7 gear items at a time vs 4.5 when I had compact images enabled.
As always looking to hear your feedback!
New pro feature added today which allows pro users to invite friends to packs so you can pack together live! Often while packing for a big trip my wife and I like to look over each others packs to make sure we are not forgetting anything between the two of us. Additionally we like to balance loads if we need to as well for weight.
Before today we would share a link to each other pack and look on two different screens. Now we can pack together in the same pack and filter each others gear. Its awesome!
Pro users can invite an unlimited number of friends to pack with them. If you are not a pro user you can join another friends pack only if you are the first to join. After that all other users must subscribe to pro to join.
Check out my shared pack here:
Now in your pack list an icon will show if there are multiple users in a pack so you know which packs in your list are multiplayer packs:
Additionally I added a small quality of life improvement, you can now also switch between group gear by category view right now a pack.
This is one of my biggest updates in a while please report any bugs you may find here and I will address them as fast as possible! I hope you all enjoy the new features!
Right now the update is waiting for review in both iOS and Android. Android should be live later today, hopefully iOS is live this weekend if not Monday at the latest hopefully!
