About

CountryLogs

Your travels, in stamps. CountryLogs is your digital travel passport. Open the app while you're in a country, tap to stamp, and watch your passport grow. Each new country brings a stamp of its own, ready to rediscover whenever you turn the page. You add every stamp manually, using your current location and today's date. You can log one country per day. CountryLogs does not record visits automatically or track your location in the background. Past trips cannot be added, visits cannot be backdated, and recorded countries cannot be changed. Like a passport, your collection grows as you travel from the day you start using it. This works the same way on every plan, including lifetime access. OPEN. STAMP. KEEP. Arrive somewhere new. Take a moment to open CountryLogs. Collect your stamp and see it land in your passport. Over time, those moments become a book filled with places you've been. EXPLORE YOUR COLLECTION - Your passport: collect distinctive country stamps, flip through the pages, zoom in and share your cover or a page. - Your atlas: explore your recorded visits with map pins, a country heatmap and an interactive globe. - Your calendar: look back at the countries you logged, day by day, with a flag for each recorded visit. - Your ledger and statistics: discover your most logged countries, cities, recorded days and distance between logged locations. - Home Screen widgets: keep your travel map and statistics close at hand. - Optional reminders: choose a reminder in Settings to help you remember to open the app and stamp. - Light and dark mode: enjoy warm paper tones, thoughtful typography and the feel of a travel journal. - Data export: export your records as JSON. Start with the country you're in today. See where your passport takes you. Some features require a paid plan. Questions? Contact info@overlayon.com.
