I built an iPhone app to organize baggage photos, tags, and receipts—looking for traveler feedback

Hi everyone! I’m the developer of Secured Bag, an iPhone app I built to help travelers document their checked luggage before flying. It keeps bag photos, baggage-tag details, receipts, and item values together. If luggage is delayed, lost, or damaged, you can prepare an exportable evidence report from your saved records. It also scans receipts and baggage tags, with the option to review and correct the extracted information. It doesn’t track luggage or submit claims to airlines. The first three trips are free; additional trips require a subscription. I’d appreciate honest feedback from people who travel with checked bags. What would make this useful for you?

I travel a lot, check fairly often, and while I’d love to give you supportive feedback, I’m just not seeing the use case where I would actually log my bag (or expect it to matter much). I’ve had bags misdirected or missed plenty, but airlines are much better at catching that, recording bag tags and airtags are my real backup. As for a loss. Sure, having photos could help with a claim but it’s still not actual proof of what was in the bag and an item log ks a lot of friction for a rather rare event. A photo does much of the work without the effort or cost. So my suggestion would be to speed things. Less inputs, more images. Make it second nature to have a snapshot of my bag, and what’s in it. You’re not making me log everything, you’re helping with the habit of recording, and anything expensive that had to be checked for some reason.
