Day counters and rule presets

Adding a counter

On the Home tab, tap the list icon in the toolbar to open Manage Counters, then tap +. The preset picker is organized into Visa, Tax, and Residency tabs — or choose Build your own to create a custom counter.

What the presets cover

Bounded ships with roughly 90 presets. A sample of what is in the catalog:

• Visas — Schengen Tourist Visa (90/180 rolling), UK Visitor Visa, US ESTA and B1/B2, and more per-visit limits.
• Tax residency — generic 183-day rules (avoid or become a tax resident), country presets like UK Tax Residency (April 6 tax year), US Tax Residency (the weighted Substantial Presence Test), UAE, Cyprus 60-day, Portugal NHR, US FEIE (330 days abroad), and around 26 US state rules plus city and safe-harbor presets.
• Residency & citizenship — absence caps that protect a US Green Card, UK ILR or Settled Status, Canadian PR, and presence requirements toward naturalization.

Reading a counter card

Each counter on Home shows its region and flag, the day count against the threshold — for example 51 / 90 in the last 180 days — and a progress bar:

The bar turns red once the limit is exceeded:

Rules with an expiry (like a visa window) show when they expire, highlighted as the date approaches. Residency-checklist presets show a status instead: maintained, at risk, or needing details.

The breakdown

Tap a counter to see exactly where the number comes from: the date span it covers, days by country, and every contributing trip. You can add a trip right from the breakdown, or tap Edit to adjust the counter itself.

Editing, reordering, deleting

In Manage Counters: tap a counter to edit it, drag to reorder (with two or more), and swipe left to delete. You can track several counters in parallel — Schengen and a 183-day tax rule at the same time, each with its own math.
