### 4/5 — フラッシュがオンにならない

*2026-01-22*

iOSアップデート後にフラッシュがオンにできなくなってしまった

### 5/5 — Does exactly what I wanted

*2025-01-20*

Essentially a standalone Count tool from Photoshop, and it works perfectly! Simple, tiny app which uses almost no storage, no shady AI claims, no subscription or data collection - you click on your image and the clicks are counted. Great for scientific research and analysis of complex scenes. Multiple colour tags and ability to save the project are useful. Tip - use two fingers / thumbs for extra speed and it becomes like a game! I counted over 600 objects in around 7 mins! Thanks for a straightforward app that does exactly what is promised.

### 5/5 — シンプルで使いやすいアプリです

*2024-04-22*

自動でカウントしてくれるアプリもあるのですが
利用するのに結構な額の課金が必要になってしまいます。手動でもいいかなぁと思って探してたところこのアプリに辿り着きました。動作も軽くシンプルで使いやすいアプリで気に入りました♪

### 4/5 — 機能追加希望です。

*2022-09-16*

簡単な操作で写真の中の対象物をカウントすることができました。
以下の2点機能追加いただけるとありがたいです。
・任意の番号からカウントをスタートできる機能（写真を変更してもカウント中の番号が引き継がれる）
・任意の番号をプロットできる機能

### 5/5 — とても使いやすいアプリです。

*2022-03-22*

細胞のカウントに使っています。動作も軽くて機能もシンプルでとても助かっています。欲を出せば、上書き保存やドライブ上の画像をカウントできたら尚良いと感じました。

追記
引き続き便利に使わせてもらっていますが、拡大時にundoできないのが不便です。以前のように、undoのボタンを設置してもらえると大変ありがたいです。よろしくお願いします。

### 3/5 — 一括削除

*2022-02-17*

とても便利ですが、保存したデータを選択削除や一括削除できるようにしてほしいです。 お願いします。

追記
削除機能ありがとうございます。
色の追加もとてもありがたいです。
ただ、undoが拡大状態で使えないのは不便なので改善していただけたらありがたいです。
