### 3/5 — Where did my trip data go?

*2026-02-24*

I’ve been successfully using this app for about 3 years and today I went in and all my trip history is gone! It’s just a white blank page.  Are you now charging for this app? I’ve not received any notices about any changes.  I need to build on those dates to schedule my next trip.

### 4/5 — Really good but does not count a single day trip

*2025-12-21, version 6.2.1*

Really good app, a little pricey for what it is. Noticed it does not have the capability to count a single day if transiting thru EU

### 2/5 — Paywall is ridiculous

*2025-10-27, version 6.2.1*

App works well but is very basic and can be replaced by an excel sheet. 
The new paywall is ridiculous and will cause users to fall off. Offer a lifetime subscription for £10 and be fair.

### 3/5 — Was good till you have to pay

*2025-10-03, version 6.2.1*

This app was really helpful, but recently you've to pay and I'm like nope. I don't have £7.99 a month to use it once or twice a year to update and that's a massive shame.

### 4/5 — Now have to pay

*2025-09-30, version 6.2.1*

I’ve enjoyed your app over the last couple of years but I’m not happy to start a free trial and then start paying £7.99 after 12 month.

### 2/5 — Too many ads

*2025-09-21, version 6.2*

Thought I’d finally found a half decent Schengen calculator, but every time you just touch this app a full page ad appears for the paid version. So annoying.

### 3/5 — Now you charge?

*2025-09-05, version 6.1.2*

This has been a great app. Now I feel used because you want to charge me- transparency was needed from the outset, so I understood that I had so many free months. Yes I get a free year but you take my credit card details etc. I will find another app, only because you changed the goal posts

### 2/5 — Не могу импортировать поездки

*2025-09-04*

Не импортирует поездки

**Developer response:** Спасибо за отзыв! Нам жаль, что у вас возникли сложности с импортом поездок. Пожалуйста, напишите нам через поддержку в приложении чтобы мы могли разобраться подробнее и помочь решить проблему.

### 4/5 — Neden ücretli oldu ?

*2025-08-24, version 6.1*

Uygulama çok güzeldi, neden ücret getirildi?

### 1/5 — False advertising

*2025-08-22*

The App used to be free but now they want to charge!

**Developer response:** We’re sorry you feel this way. The app was free for many years and recently moved to a small subscription to support ongoing updates. This wasn’t false advertising, but a necessary change to keep the app sustainable. We appreciate the time you’ve spent with it.

### 1/5 — Need to subscribe and pay?

*2025-08-22, version 6.1*

Happily used this until now. Such a shame

### 2/5 — Downgrade on latest version

*2025-08-21, version 6.1*

Latest version is more clunky and less easy to use - and now suddenly there is a yearly subscription 😐 will delete and use an alternative

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Well, it used to be good…

*2026-03-29, version 6.2.1*

As with everything…eventually they’ll start charging money for something which was free…

Still works as an instant ‘Calculator’ - but now you can’t add a trip/view your trips across the year…now you’re hit with a paywall. 

Bye bye👋🏼👎🏻

### 1/5 — Absolutely shocking changes!

*2025-12-11, version 6.2.1*

I used this app since way before Covid - it was perfect! What have you done? Pay! I’m not registering or signing up or paying! Absolute insult!

### 1/5 — Charging

*2025-12-11, version 6.2.1*

Just like a lot of apps you wheel in free then make um pay. You say it’s so you can maintain and update the app but you’ve been doing so for years without charging. I like a lot of people are not happy so I will now be looking at other options that are free. A real disgrace has become.

### 1/5 — Not sure what happened

*2025-11-19*

Was using it and now it won’t let me choose the dates I’ll be in Schengen without joining with a subscription. Many free ones out there.

### 1/5 — Charging

*2025-10-20, version 6.2.1*

Been using this app since 2022 for free now they are starting to charge, not happy👎🤓😡

### 1/5 — Outrage

*2025-10-12, version 6.2.1*

I’ve used and trusted this app for over two years. I’ve just resumed travel and on logging in find that  my history has disappeared and is replaced by a demand to pay to use the app. 
I received no warning whatsoever. 
I have no idea if I’m now breaking Shengen law, no idea how many days are left for me. 
Disgraceful.

### 1/5 — Now not free

*2025-10-03, version 6.2.1*

Very sad that this is not free after being with this app since brexit

### 1/5 — Changed to paid app

*2025-09-05, version 6.1.2*

They have built up the rating of this app when it was free and now suddenly switched to £7.99 a year. Avoid this app.

### 1/5 — Bait and switch

*2025-08-28, version 6.1*

Suddenly it’s disabled unless you pay. Better free apps out there.

### 1/5 — As a loyal customer, why are you now charging me?

*2025-08-25, version 6.1*

Would’ve stayed, but now I’m looking to move on…

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Peace of mind

*2026-02-23, version 6.2.1*

We found it complex to understand this App has allowed us to book our twilight day holidays with confidence we are within the legal allowance

### 5/5 — Makes a complex calculation simple!

*2026-02-16, version 6.2.1*

Fantastic Ap for regular travels, including great advice on cruises via the helpline which was answered promptly. Subscription cost is very reasonable for the task at hand and accurate tally and predictive tally for future trips. No hesitation in recommending this AP.

### 5/5 — Essential for frequent travel

*2026-02-05*

This app makes it so much easier to map out planned trips to Europe - especially seeing how long, based on the preceding trips, you’d be able to stay from any specific date in calendar view. 
Frankly it’s a must-have!

**Developer response:** We really appreciate the feedback! As a team, hearing that the app is 'essential' for your travels means the world to us. Your support helps us grow and continue building better tools for frequent travelers!

### 5/5 — The best!

*2026-01-12*

I absolutely love is this app. It’s so simple and easy to use, and helps you to plan trips reliably throughout the year without overstaying. The app At first I was a bit annoyed that I had to pay £7.99 a year to use it but it’s totally worth it. Couldn’t recommend it more.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the great review!
Really glad to hear the app is useful and helps you plan trips confidently throughout the year. Thanks for the recommendation - much appreciated!

### 5/5 — Simple and Useful, but Needs Multi-Person Tracking

*2025-12-07, version 6.2.1*

Great app — simple and informative, with exactly the features you need. However, it’s missing one important thing: the ability to track records for multiple people (for example, for yourself and your spouse). Because of that, you have to re-enter all the dates repeatedly. It would be much more convenient with multi-user support.

### 5/5 — 5 yıldız hakediyor ama ticari olmuş

*2025-11-04, version 6.2.1*

Üyelik ücreti çok fazla. Cüzi bir bağış karşılığı kullanabilirdim ama böyle bir ücret kabul edemem maalesef. Her şey para olmamalı

### 5/5 — The best app for planning.

*2025-10-02*

Ditched all the other apps for planning around the 90 day rule. This one has everything that I would have designed myself. The Calendar is clear and easy to amend the home option shows a clear view of your last 180 days. Excellent.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re really glad to hear the calendar and 180-day view are working well for you. It’s great to know the app helps make your planning easier - we truly appreciate your support!

### 5/5 — ❤️

*2025-09-04, version 6.1.2*

Thank you, the best app of its kind

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2025-08-14, version 6.1*

This app is so easy to use it’s taken all the stress out of what I can and can’t do I love it

### 5/5 — Excellent App

*2025-07-25, version 6.0.1*

So useful for calculating days spent in Europe zone
