Trotters

Overview

Trotters is a packing list and trip checklist app for preparing a trip in one place. It combines a suggested packing list with pre-departure tasks, so you can track what to bring and what to do before leaving.

The product is built around a short setup flow: create a trip, add destination, dates, and trip type, then start from tailored suggestions and tick items off as you pack. The site also says the list adapts to weather, includes greener suggestions, and can be shared for real-time packing with travel companions.

Trotters is available on the web and on Android, with iOS listed as coming soon. The pricing page shows free use for core trip planning, plus PRO for premium catalog items, custom items and tasks, and shared lists.

Features

Trip setup from a few details

Create a trip by entering a destination, dates, and trip type. The product says those details are enough to generate tailored suggestions.

Weather-smart packing lists

Build a packing list that is sized to the trip and adapted to the forecast for your destination and dates, so the list changes with weather conditions.

Pre-trip checklist

Includes before-you-leave tasks people commonly forget, such as watering plants or notifying the bank, alongside packing items.

Greener swaps and to-dos

A leaf icon on the list opens greener swaps and lower-impact pre-trip to-dos, such as choosing a reusable bottle instead of an airport one.

Live shared packing

Share a trip list with travel companions and watch items tick off in real time so everyone sees the same list.

Cross-device access

The site says trips sync across devices you sign in on, and the product runs in the browser with a native Android app.

Use cases

  • Planning a personal trip

    Create a trip before a vacation, enter the destination and dates, and start from a suggested list instead of building everything manually.

  • Managing pre-departure tasks

    Use the checklist to keep track of tasks like bank notifications or watering plants before leaving home.

  • Packing with lower-impact choices

    Open the greener suggestions to choose lower-impact alternatives and remind yourself about reusable items before packing.

  • Coordinating with travel companions

    Share the list with a partner, family member, or friend so everyone can pack against the same checklist in real time.

  • Switching between devices

    Sign in on more than one device and keep the same trip available on browser and Android while you pack.
