### 5/5 — THANK YOU!

*2026-05-05, version 1.02*

Literally does exactly what it says it does. 
The number you have counted to will stay there until you specifically press Reset. 
You can close out the app, re-open it, and pick up where you left off without losing your number. 
If you mess up, you can subtract one at a time. 
No weird ads or any other BS. 
A+

### 5/5 — No Ads

*2026-04-12, version 1.02*

Great app with no ads, does exactly as described, this app should take 10 minutes to code up with claude. Not sure why some ppl are charging money and ads for such a basic application. Cheers to this creator!

### 5/5 — Feature suggestion

*2026-01-06, version 1.02*

Please include haptic feedback onTap for supported devices.

### 5/5 — Great Minimalist Tally Counter

*2025-07-21, version 1.02*

This is a great, simple tally counter app if you don’t need to have multiple tallies going at once. The interface is clean and intuitive, and there are no intrusive ads. I love that you have the option to subtract 1 count if you hit the counter by accident. I also like that, if you accidentally reset your counter, you have the option to undo the reset. Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Great simple app!  NO ADS!!

*2025-07-01, version 1.02*

Thanks so much for a simple app that has no ads and is not $10 to remove ads!! A sincere thank you!

### 5/5 — Free and no ads

*2025-06-22, version 1.02*

Thank you to the developer.   Once nice addition, a simple stopwatch and timer option.  That way you can see either how long for a certain number or how many in a certain time.

### 5/5 — Does what it says/ simple

*2024-08-25, version 1.02*

Absolutely nothing wrong with it, just doesn’t do quite what I need it to do. I need it to keep track of how many pluses AND minuses I have tapped- then I can use it with a student to monitor their speech production- for example how many times they said the /s/ sound correctly versus how many times they said it incorrectly. 
Not the app’s fault, does exactly what it promises to do and NO ADS, no ridiculous subscriptions= YAY!

### 5/5 — Wonderful App!

*2024-03-26, version 1.02*

I was looking for a counter app for my religious needs and explored a few options. This one caught my attention immediately as it did NOT collect information about you unlike other apps. 

It is minimalistic in features but gets the job done nicely. 

Note to developer: consider providing different colored home screen options please. A soothing green color could be wonderful. Also for some reason I cannot do anything about the app’s brightness. 

Overall, a HUGE thank you for this app. I felt obliged to come and write a review.

### 4/5 — Please update for new iPhones

*2023-04-28, version 1.02*

Hi,

There’s still a white line at the top of this app for iPhone 14s. Please could you update to remove?

### 5/5 — Great app

*2021-07-17, version 1.02*

Why the sudden update after 5 years though?
