I have a few different types of checklists in Google Keep based mostly on length of trip, type of trip, and mode of transportation. They are detailed, down to checking items in my pockets and removing my pocketknife where relevant. For each trip, I make a copy of the relevant list and get packing. I suppose it has taken some time to organize, but now I can pack pretty quickly the night before.

This is the way.

I just keep one huge checklist that I document everything I ever pack to and start by checking off everything I'm not taking on my current trip. Then the rest of the list is enough to make sure I am properly packed.

Google Keep also has indentation in checklists, so there is also the option of breaking it down by packing cube, category, pockets, etc.

Imo OneNote far surpasses Keep.
But I like that you can hide checked items. Using it to keep track of open shipments (usually pre-ordered and/or overseas items)
