User reviews

so helpful

Im so glad this app exists because I had to count a bag full of beans for biology class and obviously i wasnt gonna count all of that so im grateful for this app thank yew

Waste of money

This app is expensive and very inaccurate.
I tried to use it for our annual inventory at the manufacturing plant I work at and while comparing the hand count and the app count the quantity off was very significant. More than 10% off. Do not waste your time or money on this app.

Expensive Monthly Fee

$119/month, only rich company can afford it

Best app out there

This is THE BEST counting app out there. Has not missed a count yet. The only negative, it is extremely expensive. I just can’t afford it.

Amazing App!

Out of all the counting apps I have tried this one is by far the most accurate and detailed! There’s SO many different templates to choose from, whether you’re counting medication, zigzag rebar, livestock, small organisms in a petri dish!?! Pretty much anything you could possibly imagine is there! It’s so quick and if it isn’t correct (rarely & in my experience only if there’s a very similar shape to the objects being counted also in the photo) there’s a very easy way to correct and guide it for the next count. Literally labels each individual item with it’s own number for legibility and accuracy. LOVE THIS APP. I get enough free counts as a guest to suit my needs which I also appreciate :3 Give this app a try if you haven’t and be wow-ed as well :3
