How to use MOTR’s Travel Checklist

Filtering Items: Quickly find items by category or tag with the dropdown menus.

Choosing your preferences
Mark the checkboxes that apply to your preferences & travel needs to add more recommended items for a more tailored packing list.
Main Categories
Start by selecting a broad category like “Clothing” or “Electronics.” This instantly hides unrelated items. Each category has its own icon for quick scanning.
Subcategories
After choosing a main category, the subcategory menu activates for further filtering. For example:
- Selecting “Clothing” reveals subcategories like “Tops,” “Bottoms,” and “Underwear”
- “Electronics” break down into “Devices” and “Accessories”
Tag System
Our smart tagging helps you find items across categories:
- Container tags: Shows items that we recommend staying in the same bag/pouch.
  - “EDC” (Everyday Carry) tag is for items that we advise travellers carrying in day bags at all time as they will be useful in everyday situations.
  - “On-body” tag is for essential items that’s needed to keep closed to yourself for security or convenience.
  - “Pouch” tag is for items that should be in the same container as they share similar purposes, like for toiletries & first-aid.
- REMOVED tag: Shows only items you’ve checked off (hidden by default)
💡Tip: Combine filters to narrow down fast & keep track on the items needed for each category.
