How to use Home Screen widgets

Bounded TeamUpdated July 15, 2026

Widgets put your day counts on the iPhone Home Screen, so you can check where you stand against a limit without opening the app.

The three widgets

  • Travel summary (small) — countries, border crossings, and travel days for a period you pick, from this year to all time.
  • Top countries (small) — the countries you have spent the most days in.
  • Counter (medium) — one of your day counters, with its progress and current count. Add several counter widgets to watch several rules.
