How this works
- Your list stays on this deviceuntil you share it. There’s no account and no server copy.
- The link carries the whole list. It sits after the # in the link, and browsers never send that part to a server. Only the first names people type go in it.
- Send it, get it back.Each person opens the link, taps “I’ll bring it” on their items, and sends you their updated link. Open it (or use Merge a link) and Camp Share adds their claims to yours.
- When two copies disagree (a changed quantity, a removed item), you choose which to keep. Nothing merges silently, and you can undo a merge.
- Merging keeps every claim from both links. If someone dropped an item in their copy, their name comes back after a merge. Just remove it again.
- Changes aren't live — share the updated link.
- The printout’s QR code opens this page, not your list.

About this tool
This family weekend group checklist covers what two or three families share at camp: the tents and a shade canopy, the camp kitchen and cooler, water, s'mores and snacks, sunscreen and insect repellent, the first aid kit, and a few things to keep kids busy after dark.
Start the list, send the link to the other families, and let each one claim what they'll bring. Everyone sends back their updated link, and Camp Share merges them, so you can see what's covered and what still needs someone before you leave.
Each family packs its own sleeping gear and clothes. This list is only for the shared things. Only the first names you type go on it, there's no account, and your copy is saved on your own device.
