## What is BorderCount?

BorderCount tracks how many days you spend in each country and province, automatically, so you always know where you stand against the limits that matter.

WHY IT EXISTS
Cross the Canada-US border regularly and the days add up faster than you think. Spend too long in the United States and the IRS can treat you as a tax resident under the Substantial Presence Test. Spend too long outside your province and you can lose provincial health coverage. Neither rule announces itself - you find out afterwards.

AUTOMATIC CROSSING DETECTION
BorderCount records your border crossings in the background. There is no trip to log and no button to remember. It is event-driven rather than constant GPS: the app wakes when something suggests you may have crossed, takes a short high-accuracy reading, and goes back to sleep.

DAY COUNTS YOU CAN TRUST
- Substantial Presence Test, with the three-year weighting shown in full
- Provincial and state residency day limits
- Visa and permit day limits
Counts update continuously, and the arithmetic is shown rather than hidden.

WORKS WHERE YOU ARE
Country and province are resolved from boundary data stored on your device, so detection keeps working on a plane, in the mountains, or at a rural crossing with no signal.

RECORDS THAT HOLD UP
Export a dated report of your day-by-day presence whenever you need to show your work - to an accountant, a lawyer, or at the border. Every record carries the date it was captured.

PAST TRAVEL
Add earlier trips by hand, or a quick monthly estimate, so your counts reflect the whole year rather than only the time since you installed the app.

YOUR DATA
Your travel history belongs to your account. You can export it, or delete your account and all of its data permanently, from inside the app at any time.

SUBSCRIPTION
BorderCount Pro unlocks the full app, and is offered as two auto-renewing subscriptions: BorderCount Pro Monthly and BorderCount Pro Annual. Prices are shown in your local currency on the subscription screen in the app, and in the App Store, before you confirm. Each includes a 7-day free trial.

Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. A subscription renews automatically unless it is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and renewal is charged within 24 hours of the end of that period. Manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings at any time. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when a subscription is purchased.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.2.6 — 2026-10-21

Bug fixes and improvements.

### 2.2.5 — 2026-10-20

New notifications and bug fixes.

### 2.2.4 — 2026-10-07

New trip calendar: tap the day you arrived, then the day you left, and the whole trip is highlighted.

Edit your past travel. Trips you've already added can now be edited, and a trip you enter now takes priority over what BorderCount recorded for those days, so travel without your phone counts correctly. Your first and last travel days count in both places.

The day you fly home now counts in the country you left, even on a long flight that lands the same day.

New "Unconfirmed" label. If your iPhone recorded no location on a day, your travel log now says so, so you can check it and add the trip in Past travel if you were somewhere else.

Clearer warnings when days might be missed. BorderCount now tells you if your iPhone has been offline for a long time or hasn't recorded a location in 24 hours. You can also sign in and see your dashboard without a connection.

### 2.2.3 — 2026-10-04

Easier to use with larger text. If you've made your iPhone's text bigger, the location and motion permission messages are now short enough that every button stays on screen, including "Always Allow", so keeping automatic tracking on is one tap.

The "Turn on Always" and "Turn on Fitness Tracking" help screens now keep the Open Settings button in view at every text size.

### 2.2.2 — 2026-10-02

Discount codes now work on iPhone. If you have a BorderCount discount code, tap "Redeem an App Store code" on the subscription screen or in Settings, or enter it under "Have a complimentary access code?" and BorderCount takes you to the App Store with the code filled in. The App Store applies the discount and shows you the price before you confirm.

The Dashboard map legend now always sits beside the card title, so nothing covers the map. The temporary legend-style setting is gone.

Fixed: a subscription started with an App Store code now unlocks the app straight away, without needing Restore Purchases.
