Add Previous Days is a feature in both TrackingDays and TrackingStates.
It allows you to add travel time from before the date you downloaded the App.
When you add previous days, you will move your tracking start date backward and a new chunk of ‘Unverified’ time will be added to the App. You will then need to edit this time as you need.
There are three ways you can do this depending on your needs.
1. I want to allocate all of my time, in one go.
2. I want to add one trip at a time (more simple option to add all tracked time)
3. I want to only add specific dates.
1. I want to allocate all of my time, in one go.
- Tap [App Settings], (white ‘cog’ in the top right hand corner).
- Tap [Add Previous Days].
- Select a date in the past, this will be your new tracking start date.
- Tap [Generate Previous Days].
This will generate Unverified time and the App will return you to the History screen.
- Tap [Verify Location].
- Tap the newly added [Unverified] trip to Edit.
You are now given a list of countries. Select every country that you need to add, this can be as many as you need.
- Once all countries are selected Tap [Done]
You must work forwards from your earliest trip in chronological order. Adding your entry and exit dates and times, for each trip. All time needs to be allocated.
- In [Country], select your Trip country
- In [Date Range] Tap [To]. Add the date and time that you departed this country.
- Tap [Add Next]
Repeat the process adding each Trip moving forwards in chronological order.
Note iPhone: When adding your final Trip, flick the ‘Time’ scroller upwards and let it automatically fall back to the end of the added time.
- Tap [Summary] and check your dates added if you need to.
- Tap [Verify]
This is the end of the process.
If you made an error, you can always edit individual trips later, all Trips can be edited, (except the current trip, which can be edited later when you move country).
2. I want to add one trip at a time.
- Tap [App Settings], (white ‘cog’ in the top right hand corner).
- Tap [Add Previous Days].
To add one trip at a time, you will add your most recent trip to the App. Ie the trip that precedes your current start date.
- Select the start date of your most recent Trip, (this will be your new tracking start date).
- Tap [Generate Previous Days].
This will generate a new Unverified Trip and the App will return you to the History screen.
- Tap [Verify Location].
- Tap the newly added [Unverified] trip to Edit.
You are now given a list of countries. Select only one country, that of your most recent Trip.
- Tap [Done]
This is the end of the process.
Repeat the process to add your next trip.
3. I want to only add specific dates.
If you only wish to add specific Trips, the interim time still needs to be allocated somewhere. This is because the App is a continuous timeline, without gaps. It is designed this way so that it doesn’t miss travel time, time gaps become unverified time.
To add only specific dates, we recommend a work around by allocating time to ‘Deleted’.
ex. I am only interested in tracking my time spent in the UK and I have some specific Trips I would like to add.
In this situation, when you are asked to select your countries from the list, select your target Country (ex. UK) and also select ‘Deleted’.
Then allocate any interim time to ‘Deleted’ and and allocate your target dates to your target Country.
- Tap [App Settings], (white ‘cog’ in the top right hand corner).
- Tap [Add Previous Days].
- Select a date in the past, this will be your new tracking start date.
- Tap [Generate Previous Days].
This will generate Unverified time and the App will return you to the History screen.
- Tap [Verify Location].
- Tap the newly added [Unverified] trip to Edit.
You are now given a list of countries. Select your target country and select ‘Deleted’ from the countries list.
- Tap [Done]
You must work forwards in chronological order.
- In [Country], select your Trip country
- In [Date Range] Tap [To]. Add the date and time that you departed this country.
- Tap [Add Next]
Repeat the process adding each target Trip moving forwards in chronological order. Allocated the interim time to ‘Deleted’.
Note iPhone: When adding your final Trip, flick the ‘Time’ scroller upwards and let it automatically fall back to the end of the added time.
- Tap [Summary] and check your dates added if you need to.
- Tap [Verify]
This is the end of the process.
If you made an error, you can always edit individual trips later, all Trips can be edited, (except the current trip, which can be edited later when you move country).
