Print a QR label, list what you packed in that box, stick it on. On move-in day, scan any box with your iPhone and the shortcut shows you what's actually in it before you slice the tape. Built by a redditor who got tired of opening boxes labelled "kitchen??" — a small piece of automation that'd be miserable to engineer from scratch but takes about ninety seconds with Apple Shortcuts.
