About this app

Know before you tow.

Most tow calculators stop at the trailer. TowCheck counts everything riding in your truck too — the people, the dog, the cooler, the firewood, the generator — and tells you whether your setup is inside every manufacturer limit before you pull out of the driveway.

A CLEAR VERDICT, NOT A SPREADSHEET
Enter your truck's GVWR and curb weight, your trailer's GVWR and tongue weight, and what you're bringing. TowCheck gives you a green, amber or red answer and names the limit that's closest: truck payload, truck GVWR, trailer GVWR, tongue weight percentage or hitch rating. Change who's coming and the number updates live.

SCAN THE STICKER
Point the camera at the rating label in your door jamb and TowCheck reads the GVWR for you — no squinting, no typing. You get one free scan for your truck and one for your trailer, and can watch a short video for another when you need it. Don't have the sticker handy? Answer a few questions about the year, make and model and get an estimated range instead.

PRE-TOW CHECKLIST
Coupler, chains, breakaway cable, tire pressure, lights, brake controller, mirrors — the walk-around you do before every trip, ready to tick off. Start a new trip to reset it, and see your progress right on the Verdict screen.

TRIP PROFILES
Save who and what comes along — the family camping trip, the weekend at the lake, hauling the ATVs — and switch between them in one tap.

FREE, WITH OPTIONAL PRO
The verdict, the checklist, profiles and your free scans are free forever, supported by ads. There is never an ad in front of your verdict. TowCheck Pro is a single one-time purchase — not a subscription — that removes every ad, gives you unlimited label scans, and unlocks the AI weight estimator: photograph a bag, a cooler or a generator and get an estimated weight.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account, no sign-in. Your vehicles, weights and trips stay on your phone. TowCheck sends only anonymous usage counts to help improve the app.

TowCheck is an informational planning aid that does arithmetic on the figures you supply. It is not a certification or inspection service and does not replace a certified scale — always verify your weights before you tow.

What’s new

What can your truck tow? Set up a truck with no trailer and the Verdict tab now tells you the tongue weight to stay under, and the loaded trailer that usually means, with your people, pets and gear counted. Already towing? Tap "This truck can handle" under Trailer capacity. Add your tow rating on Setup to cap the answer.

New tip jar: tap the coffee cup to buy the developer a coffee. It unlocks nothing; everything free stays free.
