Frequently asked questions

iReside automatically tracks which state you're in each day, so you always know exactly how many days you've spent in each state or country without logging anything manually. The app warns you when you're approaching tax thresholds like the 183-day rule, and generates audit-ready reports if you ever need to prove your residency.

Your timeline is tied to your iReside account, so you can recover it if you lose your phone or delete the app. You control exports and can delete your data anytime. The Privacy Policy has the details.

Visitors under the Schengen short-stay regime may spend at most 90 days inside the Schengen area within any rolling 180-day window. It is not 90 days per trip or 90 days per half-year: the window slides every day, and both your entry day and your exit day count as full days. iReside computes it continuously, so you always know where you stand.

iReside already knows which country you were in each day from automatic GPS tracking. It counts your days across all 29 Schengen countries in the current 180-day window and shows days used, days remaining, the date you need to leave by if you stay, and the earliest date you can re-enter after leaving.

All 29 members of the Schengen area, including recent joiners Bulgaria and Romania. Non-Schengen countries like Ireland and Cyprus do not count toward the limit. The member list is editable in settings, so your counts stay correct if membership changes.

Yes. iReside's rule engine models rolling-window limits, calendar-year and tax-year caps, per-entry stay limits with extensions, presence minimums like Canada's PR obligation, and absence caps like UAE residence visas or US green card travel warnings. Start from a template or build a custom rule for any country and any day limit.

Yes. One day history powers both: US state and international tax-residency day counts, including 183-day rules, the US Substantial Presence Test, and UK SRT day thresholds, plus every visa limit you set up.

The Where Can I Go lookup shows visa requirements for 199 passports: visa-free, e-visa, visa on arrival, or visa required, with typical maximum stays. It works fully offline and is date-stamped. Always confirm with the embassy or an official source before you book.

Yes. iReside can import your past trips from a PDF, spreadsheet, calendar file (.ics) or a photo of a boarding pass, and you can add any other past days by hand. Every imported trip is shown for you to check before it is saved. Rolling-window rules like Schengen 90/180 need past days to be accurate, so backfill matters.

Yes. Online Schengen calculators make you type in every entry and exit date. iReside fills them in for you from GPS, across all 29 Schengen countries, and keeps the 90/180 count current every day. For a one-off check without the app, use our free Schengen 90/180 calculator.

One that counts your days without you logging them, covers the rules you live under, and warns you before a limit. iReside tracks Schengen 90/180, per-entry and rolling stay limits for any country, and residency and citizenship clocks, with alerts at 30, 7 and 3 days. Our comparison page sets it against other tracker apps.

Yes. Document Backup is optional and off unless you turn it on, and you can turn it off at any time in the app's Privacy settings. The Privacy Policy explains how backed-up documents are handled.

Yes. You get alerts at 30, 7, and 3 days before any rule's limit and before visa or passport expiry dates, plus days-remaining and leave-by guidance on every rule card.

Each civil day counts once for each country you were present in. A day you cross from France to Belgium counts as one Schengen day, not two. Rules that use midnight counting can be set to overnight mode, and at-sea or in-transit days can be logged as counting nowhere.
