Country Days Tracker 4+

As a resident of Dubai I find this really helpful for tracking days, especially given I often have multiple jurisdictions and visa requirements to manage (UK, Shenghan etc). Have tried others that were more expensive and less useful. Highly recommend.

Hi SuperCryptoBlondie,
Thank you for your amazing review! It’s wonderful to hear that the app has been helpful for managing your days across multiple jurisdictions and visa requirements. If you ever have feedback or ideas to make it even better, don’t hesitate to let me know. Wishing you smooth travels and seamless planning in the year ahead!

You don’t get access to the features being advertised. There is no point downloading this app if you don’t intend on purchasing the paid version. Unfortunately the developer has missed the concept of having a free and paid version. I’m not sure how Apple approved this on the App Store. On the free version your suppose to have at least some of the advertised features. I feel this app is a bit of a con, because it seems like the app would be good.

Normally I don’t write negative reviews because I understand how hard it is to run a business, especially if a bad review can make or break the business.

Hopefully the developer reads this message - If you update the free app to include some of the advertised features, then please contact me and I’ll amend this review to suit. Also consider giving the free version all the features but with ads and the paid version without ads. Whichever solution your choose, make sure you clearly advertise this.

Thank you for your feedback, Ccalland. We're sorry to hear that you didn't find the free version of our app useful. The free version is designed to give users a glimpse of the app's capabilities, with the option to upgrade for full access. Please write to me in the chat within the app because it will help resolve all misunderstandings quickly.

I saw another review here explaining basically the same issues as I have. The app is advertised as having great features yet when you download it you are instantly met with a paywall. I saw the developer response that the free version is designed to give you a “glimpse” of what the paid version will be like, which in fact gives free users a totally unusable app. I can already get a glimpse of what the app is supposed to be like from advertisements. I don’t need to download it to see the paywall features. The other user suggested using ads instead of locking the entire app behind a paywall, which seems like a good idea.

Thank you for your review! I understand the frustration that free users may feel, and I’m actively considering ways to improve the experience while keeping the app sustainable.

Using ads instead of a paywall might seem like a good alternative, but unfortunately, it wouldn’t work well for this type of app. Unlike apps that people use daily—where ads can generate enough revenue—this app is used occasionally, meaning ads wouldn’t cover costs. Plus, they would negatively impact the user experience.

I appreciate your feedback and will continue looking for ways to make the free version more useful.
