Snowbirds US Day Tracker User Reviews

Excellent app

Wish it also tracked the 180 immigration rule.

Excellent way to keep track of your days

This makes keeping track of your rolling days very easy.

Edit: error was on my end

I originally thought the app miscalculated the number of days as it didn’t agree with my excel spreadsheet. However the error was on my end. Eg. If you arrive on Monday and leave Tuesday, that is counted as 2 days, not 1 as Excel was calculating. I checked the govt site and it is counted as 2 days as this app does. The developer contacted me to explain this and I decided to change my review.

Hello, Our calculations have been verified. The days are based on calendar days. It's not based on a 24-hour clock. IRS would count this as two days spent in the US. We would appreciate an updated review if we addressed your concerns. If you have any questions, please reach out to gerry@snowbirdsusdaytracker.com.

Perfect for Snowbirds

I have been using this app for years and it has saved me so much time since I don’t have to keep track of the days I spend in the US manually.

Error in day calculation

The numbers did not match my spreadsheet. I realize that this app counts start and end date as 2 days. So if you go overnight, it should only be 1 day and it calculates as 2 days.

If you have multiple trips, you will notice your days calculated will be increased by the number of trips you have.

The media webinars also do not play.

Useful for IRS purposes but not for rolling calendar stay count

A major miss on this app is that it does not track the number of days someone is in the US on a rolling calendar at any given time.

Response from developer

Hello, we have released an update with a rolling 12-month calendar! Please update your app and give it a try. If you need any support, please reach out to gerry@snowbirdsusdaytracker.com.

Great App

Would be perfect if this app was set up for couples, partners, husband and wife. I take care of tracking this info. So I still have to record my partners on paper

Response from developer

Hello Lynnie, thank you for the feedback. You can create another account to track your partner's info. You just need to use a different email address. Please reach out to us if you need any help gerry@snowbirdsusdaytracker.com.

Border line useless!… (pun intended)

This app falls short in many ways.

A “category” is required for each trip from a drop down list that doesn’t allow for a custom description. The date ranges are restricted to the calendar year requiring a Snowbird to enter two trips; one ending December 31st and a second starting January 1st. A “Location” for each trip is required but only from a drop down list which doesn’t include my true locations.

Trips are not displayed. Just a gross total of days in the US.

There doesn’t appear to be a way to edit a trip.

The substantial presence test is not calculated. This is particularly bad given this is the point of this app.

And probably worst… there’s no rolling year calculation. This is critical information needed to manage the 180 days CBP permit visitors traveling on a virtual B2 visa to be in US.

Clearly little thought has been put into the functionality needed to make this app useful. Equally clear this is a travel insurance organization promoting their products.

Hello, We have released an update that addresses many of your concerns. You can now enter trips that span over multiple years. Trips are displayed on the dashboard for the current year, and you can find the rest of your trips by clicking "Other Years" on the top left of the dashboard. You can edit trips by clicking on "Edit". The Substantial Presence test has always been calculated. You can view a breakdown of the Substantial Presence test by clicking "View Summary" on the top right of the dashboard, showing you how we calculate the Substantial Presence Test. We just released an update that includes a Rolling 12-month calendar. If you have any other concerns, do not hesitate to email me at gerry@snowbirdsusdaytracker.com
