### 5/5 — Great

*2026-08-30*

Great app, very useful.

**Developer response:** We’re glad you’re enjoying!

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2026-08-18*

Amazing app, it really complements my workday.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback!

### 5/5 — Great app for expats

*2026-08-15*

This app is loaded with amazing features for expats who want to keep track of their days in the UK and abroad. The UI is really seamless, highly recommend.

**Developer response:** Thank you! Tracking UK and overseas days shouldn't be a spreadsheet job, so it's great to hear the UI is working for you. More expat-focused features on the way.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2026-08-13*

what a great tracking app, love the functionality

**Developer response:** Appreciate it, thank you! Glad the tracking is doing its job.

### 5/5 — Good, clear, rational

*2026-07-02*

Been reading UK gov site for the rules which are more complex than i initially knew.  This app incorporates the various Ties as well.  Useful for planning.

**Developer response:** Thanks, Benji. The SRT ties are where most people come unstuck, so we made sure they're built in properly rather than left as an afterthought. Glad it's helping with planning.

### 5/5 — Redefined how I travel

*2026-07-01*

No more spreadsheets, no more missing days, no more searching for evidence. Midnight Rule consolidates everything into one easy to use App!

### 1/5 — Zero support, does not let you add evidence

*2026-05-09*

This has good reviews (fake I suspect).  You can add a flight but can’t add associated evidence like a boarding pass despite paying for pro subscription.  Really do NOT waste your money

**Developer response:** Hi Jase, sorry for the frustration. That's not the experience we want. Adding evidence like boarding passes is a Pro feature and should work for you. You can attach evidence to any flight, hotel booking, or individual day from that item's detail screen. If you're not seeing the option, please drop us a line at contact@midnightrule.com, and we'll get you sorted quickly. We ship updates most weeks and read every message. The reviews are genuine, but we'd much rather fix your specific issue than debate that. Thanks for giving the app a try.

### 5/5 — Finally, an app that gets it!

*2026-03-16*

As someone who splits their time across multiple countries and has to keep a close eye on both UK tax residency days and Schengen allowances, I was long overdue an upgrade from my increasingly unwieldy Excel spreadsheets. Midnight Rule has genuinely been a game changer. 

What I love most is that everything is in on place - days per country, rolling Schengen counts, flights and the ability to track my Husbands location too. For couples managing their residency positions separately or together, this is a super helpful feature. 

Before Midnight Rule, I was manually updating my spreadsheet after each trip, double-checking my Schengen days with a separate calculator, and constantly worrying I’d made an error. Staying compliant when you travel is a lot to manage, however this app takes the stress away. 

The interface is clean and intuitive - you don’t need to be a tax professional to understand what you’re looking at. 

If you’re a non tax resident, a digital nomad, or anyone who needs to be careful about where they’re spending their nights - save time and get this app!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much, Hannah! This is exactly why we built Midnight Rule: those late-night spreadsheet updates and the constant "did I count that right?" worry. So glad it's taken the stress out of it for you. The partner-tracking feature is one we're especially proud of, so it's great to hear it's useful for managing positions together. Safe travels, and thanks for taking the time to write this!

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.5.2 — 2026-08-26

Connection and auto day logging improvements.

### 2.5.1 — 2026-08-21

UI improvements.

### 2.5.0 — 2026-08-19

Auto Day Logging, off unless you turn it on. Your phone can work out which country you were in as each day ended and log it for you, and your movement history never leaves your device. Clear cut days go in by themselves, while border days and days you flew wait for a one tap confirmation.

Daily reminders now only nudge you about days that are genuinely missing.

### 2.4.5 — 2026-08-11

UI Improvements.

### 2.4.4 — 2026-08-09

"I'm on this too"
See a connection's flight, hotel or restaurant that you're also on? One tap adds it to your own records. It stays linked to theirs, so if the time or dates change, your copy updates automatically.

Restaurant Reservations
Keep your restaurant bookings alongside your flights and hotels. Search for a venue by name and we fill in the address for you, pick the date and time, and it sits in your Planner with everything else.

Activities
Transfers, trains and ferries, car hire, tours and event tickets now have a home of their own. Log anything with a category, date and optional time, attach evidence, share it with connections, and see it on your Planner alongside everything else.

Evidence Organised
Documents can now be attached to a hotel stay or restaurant booking, not just a day or a flight. Each one carries a tag such as boarding pass, receipt, confirmation or your own, so you can filter down to exactly what you need. Everything already in Evidence still works as it did, and we tag it for you so there's nothing to tidy up.
