Question 1

What does iReside do, in plain English?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 2

Is my data private?

Accepted Answer

Your timeline is stored with an encrypted sync to your account on our database so that even if you lose your phone or delete the app, your account can be recovered. You control exports and can delete data anytime. Additionally, we never share or sell data with any third party.

Question 3

Can I migrate my residency data from another app?

Accepted Answer

Yes! If you are looking to switch from a competitor to iReside, reach out to support@ireside.ai to get your residency data migrated.

Question 4

Will it drain my battery?

Accepted Answer

No. iReside samples location intelligently and adapts to your movement, so battery impact stays low.

Question 5

How do you count a day in a state?

Accepted Answer

By default, any presence in a calendar day counts. You can apply state-specific rules in settings and see how that changes your totals.

Question 6

Can it handle flights and layovers?

Accepted Answer

Yes! iReside recognizes in-flight segments, ignores flyover states, and includes actual origin, destination, and layovers.

Question 7

What if the app records something wrong?

Accepted Answer

Open the timeline to edit or delete entries (your manual edits take precedence) and then click save for that day or date range.

Question 8

Will it work if I commute across state or country lines daily?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Commutes are grouped, and each day's presence is attributed correctly to the locations you were actually in.

Question 9

Can I plan ahead, not just look back?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can add planned entries in the timeline.

Question 10

Can I export a report?

Accepted Answer

One-click PDF exports with day counts, locations, and notes.

Question 11

Do you sell or share my location?

Accepted Answer

No. iReside does not sell personal data.

Question 12

Will it work if I turn on Low Power Mode or lose signal?

Accepted Answer

Yes, entries buffer offline and backfill when signal returns; Low Power Mode scales sampling while preserving accuracy.

Question 13

What if I switch phones?

Accepted Answer

Sign in on the new device and securely sync your timeline, or restore from an encrypted backup.

Question 14

How much does the subscription cost?
