With all the rainy weather in San Diego I have not been on many trips or day hikes recently have been coding away. I was using lighterpack to track my packs but wanted a little more than they had to offer and started coding my own app. I would love to get your thoughts and opinions on it!

My app is called "Don't Forget the Spoon" and allows you to enter gear into a virtual gear locker and build packs to track weight and other stats. Features include:
  • Designed for mobile, take your gear locker with you anywhere
  • Track weight, consumable weight, pack weight etc.
  • Swipe to mark items as 'packed' so you never forget anything while packing for your trip
  • Track total calories in pack, and get estimates of days of food
  • Tap to find lighter alternatives of gear
  • A growing community database of gear to search
  • Share links to packs with friends who don't have the app

You can check out the app on the Android Google Play Store or the iphone iOS Store.
