StayCount: Schengen & Tax

Know what counts, what is left, and when a planned stay changes your travel-day limits.

You are not looking for another travel diary. You are trying to answer three practical questions before a border crossing:

How many days do I have left? When can I come back? Will this next trip change the answer?

StayCount turns scattered bookings, passport notes, and spreadsheet formulas into one private presence ledger. Record where you stayed, check the dates that count, and see why the result is what it is—before you book the next flight.

WHEN THE 90/180 RULE IS HARD TO SEE

Schengen days do not reset on a simple fixed date. The 180-day window moves with every day, and an old trip can affect a future entry. StayCount shows the rolling balance, the earliest re-entry date, the latest safe exit for a planned stay, and the dates behind the calculation.

WHEN A FUTURE TRIP COULD CHANGE YOUR STATUS

Add a planned stay before you commit to flights or hotels. Compare the result against your existing travel history and understand what changes. You can review the current count, simulate a future trip, and keep the reasoning visible instead of trusting a single unexplained number.

WHEN TAX-DAY RECORDS ARE SPREAD ACROSS FILES

StayCount Pro connects the same presence ledger to separate US and UK workspaces:

• US Substantial Presence: current-year days, the three-year weighted total, the 31-day minimum, and excluded spans.
• UK Visitor and Statutory Residence Test: tax-year facts, ties, work days, transit, and exceptional circumstances.

Each workspace keeps its own rule logic while sharing the dates you entered, so one correction does not become three different spreadsheets.

WHEN YOU NEED TO EXPLAIN THE RECORD LATER

Attach notes and supporting files to a stay, then create an encrypted backup only when you choose. Your travel dates, rule facts, and attachments remain on your device. Core recording and calculations work offline, with no account, advertising, analytics, or location permission required.

StayCount is designed for travelers, digital nomads, expats, second-home owners, and cross-border professionals who want a clearer record without handing over their movement history.

StayCount Pro unlocks the US and UK rule workspaces, evidence attachments, and encrypted backup features. The final product type and price will be shown in the Apple purchase sheet.

IMPORTANT

StayCount: Schengen & Tax is a planning tool, not legal, immigration, or tax advice. Results depend on the information you enter, your nationality, visa or residence status, treaties, local rules, and the date of travel. Always confirm important decisions with official sources or a qualified adviser.

Official references are linked in the app, including the European Commission short-stay calculator, the IRS Substantial Presence Test, and HMRC Statutory Residence Test guidance.
