QuinnScape has announced the release of version 9.0 of Packing Pro, their popular travel app for iOS. This update adds a host of family-friendly features to this 4-year-old app, as well as individual bag weight totaling to help avoid excess baggage fees.

In addition to providing a convenient way of creating and managing travel packing lists, Packing Pro 9.0 adds several new family-friendly features, such as list filtering by both person and bag, filter-related enhancements to its Expert list making tool, new list total breakdowns by person and bag, and an option to email-export a partial, filtered portion of a list to an individual family member. These enhancements may also be useful to other groups of travelers, or even single travelers with multiple bags.

Here’s the full list of new features and changes:

• FILTER lists by BAG and/or PERSON (as well as by CHECKED/UNCHECKED).
• View item, weight & value SUBTOTALS by BAG and PERSON.
• Email-export filtered lists (as text & files).
• EXPERT HELP tool update to support multi-person labeling & filtering.
• On iPad, PERSON, BAG & NUMBER icons & values now remain visible even while editing.
• Newly added list items (via Direct, Pick or Search) now are auto-set to the current sort settings for PERSON & BAG.
• Email-export text list redesign.
• Added option to minimize or hide category headers on a list.
• Added option to disable the device’s auto-lock.
• Added more currencies, and ability to edit them as well.
• Cut app file size in half.
• Fixed crashing bug when deleting last remaining section of a list.
• Fixed occasional bug when adding multiple items to a list.
• Fixed bug with moving/copying catalog items.
