A record, not advice. Confirm anything that matters with the authority concerned or an adviser.
How to count your days
- Export your Timeline and drop it on thereiwent.com.
- Set the period: a calendar year, a tax year, the five years before an application.
- Read the Days per country table, or download it as a spreadsheet.

What exactly is counted
| Column | What it means | Use it for |
|---|---|---|
| Days | Every date on which you were in the country at any time. A travel day counts for both countries. | Rules where any part of a day counts, such as the Schengen 90/180 rule and the US Substantial Presence Test |
| Nights | Where you were at 3 am. | A close stand-in for rules that look at where you were at midnight, such as the UK Statutory Residence Test |
| Share of tracked days | The country's days as a share of all days that have location data in the period. | Seeing at a glance where you mostly were |
| 183+ tag | Shown when a country reaches 183 days in the period. | Spotting a common tax-residency threshold |
Days without location data aren't counted anywhere; the page says how many there are.
The Schengen 90/180 check
If your home is outside the Schengen Area, a line under the table shows the most days in any 180-day window, highlighted over 90. The rule explained.

Used for
Tax residency (UK, US, Australia), Schengen stays, and residence or citizenship applications: Canada, for example, asks for 1,095 days in the five years before applying.
Getting the count right
- Gaps: fill days without data from tickets or stamps. Why days go missing.
- Other phones: merge their files first.
- Borders: places within about 500 m of one may land in the neighbouring country.
- Late arrivals: nights are taken at 3 am; check 1 am landings by hand for midnight rules.
- Keep the evidence: Download spreadsheet (Excel) has a day-by-day list. Delete the sheets with your places before passing it on. What's in it.
Questions
- Will a tax office or immigration authority accept my Timeline as proof?
- That's up to them. It's your phone's record, useful alongside tickets and stamps, not an official document.
- Does a day spent in transit count?
- In the Days column, yes. Some rules exclude transit days; adjust by hand.
- Can it plan a future trip?
- No. For Schengen, use the EU's official calculator, linked from the Schengen guide.
