About

Ever wonder how many countries your trusty travel companion has carried you to? Track My A logs every country you visit automatically, and it does the border math nobody enjoys: Schengen 90/180, visa stays, tax residency and citizenship day counts. Donkeys have carried travelers for centuries. Ours carries the numbers. (What did you think the "A" stood for? Adventure, ofc!) TODAY The app opens on a map of where you are, with when you arrived, where you came from and how many days you've spent there this year. Every limit that applies shows the days you have left in a ring, like "39 days left, leave by 3 Nov". LIMITS THAT COUNT THEMSELVES Arrive somewhere and your passport's visa-free allowance starts counting from that day. Schengen 90/180 is counted automatically. Your passports decide what applies, so nothing counts in your own country, and EU, EEA and Swiss passports skip the Schengen count. You can add your own day limits and return deadlines too. COUNTED THE WAY THE RULES COUNT Travel days count for both countries. If there's a gap between stays that the app couldn't track, it asks you to confirm it. Day counts don't break when you change time zones or cross the date line. EVERY STAY, EVERY YEAR Each country has a page with every stay (entry and exit dates) and your days per calendar year and tax year. The calendar shows every day, and you can tap any day to fix it. YOUR WORLD MAP An offline world map with the countries you've been to in orange, plus your year in flags, stats and achievements. PHOTO IMPORT Already traveled a lot? Rebuild years of history from the locations in your photos. It all happens on your iPhone. TRIP PLANNER Pick a country and dates. The planner counts the trip exactly like your rings do and tells you straight away whether it fits, or the day you'd have to leave. VISA LOOKUP Entry rules for every country, based on your passports. Each rule was checked against that country's published rules and shows the date it was checked and how confident we are. Your entry stamp always has the final say. WIDGETS AND SIRI Widgets for the home screen and lock screen (Pro adds a large overview and one for any single limit). Say "Log today in France" or ask Siri how many Schengen days you have left. FREE iCLOUD BACKUP Automatic daily backups to your own iCloud Drive, so losing your phone doesn't mean losing your history. Restoring merges with what's already there and never overwrites it. Backups will never be behind a paywall. TRACK MY A PRO • Tax residency counters: 183-day rules with real calendar year and tax year windows (the UK from 6 April, Australia from 1 July and so on) and the US Substantial Presence Test with its weighted formula. Each preset says what it covers, what it doesn't, and where the rule comes from. • Citizenship and PR progress: UK naturalisation absences, US and Canadian physical presence targets. • Trips, travel rhythm charts, PDF day logs for your accountant, and the large and single limit widgets. If you used Track My A before this update, Pro is free for you, for life. For new users Pro costs $2.99 a month, $14.99 a year (with a free first week) or $39.99 once. Subscriptions renew automatically until you cancel them in Settings. Your first 183-day counter is always free, and everything that used to be free stays free. PRIVACY Your location stays on your iPhone. There are no accounts, we don't run any servers and nothing is tracked. Backups only go to your own iCloud Drive. Track My A is for information only and isn't legal or tax advice. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Saddle up. The world is waiting.
