Visa-free travel in the Schengen Area, made simple. Schengen Calculator helps you plan and track every trip under the EU's 90/180-day rule — so you always know exactly how long you can stay, when you must leave, and the earliest you can return. Whether you're a post-Brexit UK traveller, a digital nomad, a second-home owner, a business traveller, or a non-EU citizen visiting visa-free, staying within 90 days in any rolling 180-day period is now effortless. HOW IT WORKS Add your past and planned trips, and Schengen Calculator shows the one number that matters: how many days you can still stay. Unlike a simple counter that only tallies days already used, it weighs your upcoming plans and your past travel together across the rolling 180-day window — so you see your true maximum stay on any date and make the most of your 90 days without overstaying. FEATURES • Your available stay in one clear number — how long you can stay, on any date • Looks ahead and back — factors in your upcoming plans and past travel, so you maximise your time without overstaying • Calendar and list views of your trips • 180-day report, ready for passport control • Track multiple people with separate profiles • Colour-coded labels by trip type or destination • Share trips with friends — they add them with one tap • Include or exclude trips for non-Schengen scenarios • Cloud backup & sync across your devices with iCloud (Pro) • Optimised for iPhone and iPad • Ad-free with Pro THE 90/180 RULE Most non-EU visitors may spend up to 90 days in any 180-day period in the Schengen Area. The window is "rolling" — it always looks back 180 days from any given date — which makes the maths tricky. Schengen Calculator does it for you, instantly. Great for trips across France, Spain, Italy, Germany, Greece, Portugal and the rest of the Schengen Area. Schengen Calculator is an independent planning tool and does not provide legal or immigration advice. Always confirm your status with the official authorities before travelling.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: BorderCue at none against Schengen Calculator's shown. Schengen Calculator's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
