Goals: what they change

Bounded TeamUpdated August 16, 2026

During setup Bounded asks what you are tracking for. It is not a survey — the answer tunes the app around your situation, and you can pick more than one:

  • Avoid overstaying my visa,
  • Manage tax residency,
  • Track citizenship progress,
  • See where I’ve been.

What your goals affect

  • Suggested counters — the preset chips Bounded offers on the Home tab (and during onboarding) match your goals: visa people see Schengen and per-visit caps first, tax people see 183-day rules, citizenship people see naturalization presets. The full catalog is always available regardless.
  • Your exported report — the PDF travel report states your goal in its header, so the document explains itself to whoever you hand it to.

Changing goals later

Open the You tab, tap the Goals card, and toggle any combination. Nothing about your data or counters changes — only what Bounded suggests next.
