Backpack Manager

Track your backpacking gear, build packing checklists, and hit your base-weight target.

Backpack Manager is a gear and pack planning app for backpackers, thru-hikers, and anyone who tracks pack weight and manages their gear list.

BUILD YOUR GEAR LIBRARY Catalog everything you own: weight, manufacturer, category, cost, notes, and tags. Mark items as worn or consumable so your base weight is calculated the way the backpacking community expects.

PLAN YOUR PACKS Compose packs from your library with per-item quantities. See total weight, base weight, worn weight, and consumable weight update in real time as you add and remove gear.

HIT YOUR WEIGHT TARGET Instant feedback against target pack weight so you know exactly where the ounces or grams are hiding.

PACK WITH A CHECKLIST Turn any pack into a packing checklist. Check items off as they go in the bag, filter by category, and see your progress at a glance.

YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS No account. No tracking. No ads. Everything is stored locally on your device, and you can export or import your full library as a readable and transferable JSON file at any time. Optional end-to-end encrypted sync support is coming soon. This will allow cross-device data synchronization and use from a browser, all without exposing your data to anyone, including us.

Whether you're planning a weekend loop or a month-long thru-hike, Backpack Manager keeps your kit organized and your pack light.
