Schengen Slice

The 90/180 day counter for iPhone · Support & scope

If you travel in Europe without a visa, you may spend 90 days in any rolling 180-day window. It sounds simple until you try to work it out: the window moves with you, both your arrival and departure days count, and days you spent five months ago quietly expire while you are still travelling. Schengen Slice does that arithmetic continuously, from the trips you enter, and tells you the two things you actually need — how many days you have left, and the last date you can leave while staying inside the limit.

Schengen Slice is an independent, unofficial calculator. It is not produced by, endorsed by, or affiliated with the European Union, the European Commission, or any government.

What it does

Counts your days used and days remaining against the rolling 180-day window, in real time.
Tells you your latest safe exit date — and works it out so that trips you have already booked stay legal.
Finds the longest trip you could take from any entry date, in one tap.
Warns you as you approach your own chosen threshold, on your device.
Puts your remaining days on the home screen as a widget.
Works entirely offline. Syncs between your devices through your own iCloud.

What it does not cover

This is deliberate, and it is the most important thing on this page. Schengen Slice counts the 90/180 visa-free short-stay rule and nothing else.

Days spent under a residence permit or a long-stay (national D) visa do not count toward the 90 — don't log them here.
If you hold a Schengen visa, its own dates and entry limits take precedence over anything the app shows.
Monaco, San Marino, the Vatican and Andorra have no border posts, so time there is normally treated as time in the surrounding country — log it that way.
Overseas territories such as Réunion, Guadeloupe, Greenland and Svalbard are outside the Schengen area. The Canaries, Azores and Madeira are inside it.
The app only knows about trips you enter yourself. A missing trip means a wrong answer.

At the border, the officer's record is what counts — since the Entry/Exit System went live that is computed from your biometric entries and exits, not from this app. Schengen Slice is guidance for your own planning. It is not legal advice, it is not affiliated with the European Union or any government, and it cannot make decisions on your behalf.

Privacy, briefly

The app has no servers and makes no network requests of its own. There is no account, no analytics, and no tracking. Your trips stay on your device and, if you are signed in, sync through your own private iCloud — which I cannot read. The full text is at nuri.run/privacy/schengen-slice.

Common questions

Why does my 10-day trip count as 10 days when I was only there 9 nights?

Because the rule counts your day of arrival and your day of departure as full days, even if you land at 23:50 and leave at 06:00. This is the single most common way people miscount their own stay, and it is why the app shows the trip length beside every date range.

I have 85 days used and a 20-day trip booked. Why isn't the app screaming?

Because days expire. If that trip is far enough out, the days you spent months ago will have dropped out of the 180-day window before it starts, and the trip is perfectly legal. The app models the whole plan forward rather than adding numbers together.

I forgot to mark that I left a country. What happens?

A trip left open keeps counting days against you. Swipe right on it in the Trips list to close it at today's date, or tap it to set the exact day you left.

Does it work without internet?

Yes, entirely. Internet is only ever used by iOS itself to sync your own iCloud data between your devices.

Is my data backed up if I lose my phone?

If you are signed in to iCloud, yes — your trips restore with your Apple Account. The app tells you which mode it is in under Settings → Sync, so you always know.

Support

Found a bug, got a number you think is wrong, or want something added? Email bruner@nuri.run and I will reply. If you are reporting a wrong count, please include the trip dates involved — that is usually enough to reproduce it exactly.

One boundary, stated plainly: replies from this inbox explain how the app works and how it computed a number from the dates you entered. They are not a personal assessment of your immigration or tax situation — I am not a licensed immigration adviser or tax adviser in any country. If your question is about your own status under a specific country's law (a visa, a permit, a border decision, your tax residency), please take it to a licensed professional in that country.
