Few of us enjoy the preparations any trip requires, and the fact is a lot of planning is needed if you want to make sure that no unpleasant surprises come.

Journey is a lightweight piece of software that provides you with some assistance in this respect, being able to create checklists so that you don’t forget about any essential item you may want to pack in your luggage.

Following an uneventful setup process, Journey prompts you with a clutter-free GUI that any user should figure out in a matter of seconds.

You simply need to navigate to the “Edit” menu in order to start adding items to your list, with the possibility of clicking the dedicated buttons on the toolbar for a plus of convenience.

Each item is assigned a name, a group, as well as a quantity, with the mention that making modifications to the indicated values can be done at a later point, in case you deem that necessary.

You will see your entire list in the main window, and once you have acquired a specific item, checking it is possible so that you don’t worry about it any longer. However, note that once you do that, the quantity of said item is no longer displayed, which means that if you accidentally check an item, you will need to re-add some details manually.

Apart from that, you should also know that saving your checklists in TJJ format is always an option so that you edit or reuse them at a later time.

On an ending note, Journey is a handy tool that helps you keep track of the items on your shopping list when organizing a trip, a dinner, or any other event. While the program is intuitive and responsive, you should be aware that its feature set is addressed at inexperienced users who are on the lookout for a hassle-free tool.
