Can I cancel Plus?
Yes, at any time. You keep Plus until the end of the period you paid for. Billing runs through the App Store, Google Play or Stripe, depending on where you subscribed, and you cancel in the same place.
Visas and day counting
How does TravelDay count days in a country?
A day counts in a country if you were there for any part of it, using the local date at that place. A travel day can count in two countries, as it does under the Schengen rules.
Days come from your trips, flights, photos, calendar and email imports. Each one keeps its source, and you can correct any of them.
We count the days you have recorded. Missing, estimated or wrongly imported dates change the result, and we cannot see which passport you used. Your passport stamps and the official rules decide. Leave a margin and confirm with the authorities before you rely on a date.
How does the Schengen 90/180 rule work in TravelDay?
You may spend up to 90 days in any rolling 180-day period across the Schengen Area. TravelDay counts every day you were in any Schengen country in the 180 days before a date and compares it with 90.
Days used is free: see how many days you have used in Schengen or any country. Plus tells you how many are left, checks future trips, and gives you a heads-up as a limit nears.
Which visa and tax rules does TravelDay track?
The public catalogue lists 119 rules across tax residency, visas, residency and citizenship, each linked to its official source. Browse them in the day-count atlas.
Some legal tests depend on more than days, such as family ties or a permit's wording. Those rule pages say so instead of showing a number.
Is a TravelDay day count legal or tax advice?
No. A count from your recorded travel. Not legal or tax advice. We count the days you have recorded. Missing, estimated or wrongly imported dates change the result, and we cannot see which passport you used. Tax tests also weigh ties, exceptions and treaties we do not assess. Your stamps, the official rules and a qualified adviser decide.
Safety scores and data
How are TravelDay's safety scores made?
Each country gets a score from 0 to 100, where 100 is safest. Today it is driven mostly by the U.S. State Department travel advisory level. Recent events, disaster and humanitarian data and a researched assessment can move it, but those feeds are thin for many countries, so read the score as a summary of official advice, not an independent measurement.
Active conflict is handled separately. Where a government advisory is at level 3 or 4, the band we show is capped, so a calm score never hides a war. Neighbourhood scores appear only where we have grounded local sources.
What are the limits of the safety scores?
An estimate, not a guarantee. Check official advisories too. They can be out of date or miss what is happening on the ground, and they describe an area, not your personal risk. Use them as one input alongside official travel advice and local knowledge.
Coverage varies by country, and neighbourhood detail exists only in some cities.
Missing data is shown as missing, never as safe. TravelDay is for information only. Check official advice before you travel. Read the Terms for the full disclaimer.
Where does TravelDay's data come from?
Public and open sources, each shown with the alert it backs: the U.S. Department of State for advisories, GDACS, USGS, UN OCHA ReliefWeb and the WHO for disasters and outbreaks, MET Norway and NASA POWER for weather and climate, OpenStreetMap, Overture Maps, Wikidata and GeoNames for places, the Passport Index dataset for visa rules, and the World Bank and U.S. BEA for relative costs.
The full list, with what each source is used for and its caveats, is on Data sources.
SOS and emergencies
Does TravelDay's SOS call emergency services?
No. SOS alerts your trusted contacts. It does not call emergency services. It emails your trusted contacts right away. It does not call anyone, send texts, or contact the police or an ambulance.
SOS needs a data connection, battery and at least one trusted contact. Delivery is not guaranteed and your contacts may not see it in time. In danger, call the local emergency number first. TravelDay is not an emergency service and does not replace 911 or 112. Checked local emergency numbers are shown free for 29 countries so far.
What happens if I miss a safety check-in?
Automated check-ins are a Plus feature. If you miss a check-in, your contacts are emailed. No one else is. Check-ins depend on our servers, your connection and your contacts reading their email. They are a backup, not a monitoring service. Nobody at TravelDay watches them.
Privacy and your data
Who can see my travel history?
Only you, unless you share it. Your history appears publicly only if you turn on a public profile or create a share link, and you can turn either off.
TravelDay has no advertising and does not build profiles of you across other websites. See the Privacy Policy.
Can I export my data?
Yes, free on every plan, any time. In Settings, under Your data, choose Export to download your travel history as spreadsheets or JSON. Vault documents stay encrypted and download separately.
Can I delete my account?
Yes, from Settings at any time. Deleting your account permanently removes your trips, documents and contacts from our servers.
Using TravelDay with AI assistants
Can I use TravelDay with ChatGPT or Claude?
Yes. Add https://www.travelday.world/api/mcp as a custom connector in ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, VS Code or any MCP client, then sign in to TravelDay. The setup guide has steps for each.
What is the TravelDay MCP server?
It is a remote Model Context Protocol server at https://www.travelday.world/api/mcp. It lets AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor and VS Code read and update your TravelDay travel record after you sign in and approve.
Is connecting my AI to TravelDay free?
Importing your travel from email through your assistant is free on every plan. Asking it questions about your travel, editing your history and the other tools need TravelDay Plus.
Do I need an API key?
No. TravelDay uses OAuth sign-in. Your assistant opens a TravelDay sign-in page and you approve the connection there.
Can TravelDay read my email through my assistant?
No. Your assistant reads your mail with its own connection and sends TravelDay only booking facts: dates, airports, booking references, providers and traveller names. Email bodies, attachments and payment details are refused by the server.
Can I undo an import?
Yes. Every import is labelled with the assistant that made it, and one tap undoes the whole batch. Uncertain bookings wait in your review list until you approve them.
How do I disconnect an assistant?
In TravelDay, open Settings, then Connected apps, and end the connection. It stops working immediately.
