World Kite Residency Tracker 4+

Great app in principle

The app works well in itself BUT as it constantly uses your location in the background it drains your battery in a matter of hours.
If you change it to only when using the app it stops you from opening it until you change back to always.
If they could fix that so it only checked periodically then it would get 5 stars from me.

Doesn't record properly

Have used this for 2 years. Constant issues with recording proper location and days in a particular country. Especially problematic when one is restricted to a certain number of days in a country and the app constantly skips or adds or substracts days randomly. I have spoke to the support people many times. They are super nice and responsive and they generally end up correcting the count, but then the app messes up again. So one cannot just rely on it blindly. It is faulty and despite many updates/upgrades, issue still hasn't been fixed.

Best travel app

Ideal solution for easy tracking if you travel a lot. Makes travelling stress free, giving you a one-stop shop with all the info you need to evidence your travels: purpose, travel docs, etc which you can easily export and share with your tax advisor. No more rubbed off passport stamps to read into! Technology saves the day!
