## What is QR Counter?

Count without a single click and without entering a single name!
The app counts how often a QR code is shown.

COUNT WHATEVER YOU WANT!
Use this app for...
... counting points in a game or quiz.
... counting laps students have run.
... counting how often something was done by each student.
... checking who was here (you will get a list of all names).
... checking how often someone was here (you will get a list of names and quantities).
... checking your workflow - put a QR code on every station.
... counting your students' things.
and much more.



-> NO CLICKS

-> NO TYPING OF NAMES
The app automatically creates new items if a new QR code is shown. The name is whatever the QR code contains.

Choose the sort order: Is the highest or lowest score best?

-> SAVE AUTOMATICALLY

-> EXPORT
Save and export rankings by email as .csv files.

-> MANUAL INTERVENTION
Change the result by swiping right to add 1 point. Swipe left to remove 1 point. If there is a person without QR code, it is possible to manually add a counter.

-> CREATE MULTIPLE QR CODES ONLINE AT http://www.teaching-apps.com
Simply type in all names/items at once and get multiple QR codes in a PDF, which you can then print and save. It couldn’t be any easier! Each QR code is embedded in a student ID card in a credit-card size. These cards can be used for different apps and uses. Be sure to subscribe to the newsletter to receive updates on any new apps.

### 1/5 — Refund

*2026-01-10, version 2.0*

This app is useless. The links lead to empty sites. QR codes can’t be created as stated. Awful.

### 1/5 — Will not open after one use

*2023-10-12, version 2.0*

The app seemed pretty good. But once you use it once, and Clear the list. It will not open again. It just closed the entire app every time I try and use it.

### 3/5 — Groups

*2020-07-24, version 2.0*

The App is great but it will be awesome if you can create groups.

### 3/5 — Time Stamp

*2019-08-15, version 2.0*

Love the app but think it would be beneficial to have a time stamp of when student is scanned. As a teacher, this can be utilized when taking attendance to see when a student arrives to class.

### 3/5 — QR counter

*2018-04-12, version 2.0*

Nice app but it be nice if it had a counter of how many different qr codes it encountered along with the rankings.

### 1/5 — Was hoping they had fixed the problem

*2016-02-03, version 1.1*

Don't buy it since the error message still happens and can't make anymore codes - yep useless!

### 3/5 — Mr.

*2015-10-20, version 1.1*

The app was useful when I started using it for my morning running club for my elementary school. This week when I went to create new codes for new participants I got an error message. When I tried to contact the company via email both emails came back as undeliverable. It is now useless for me.

UPDATE: As of 10/20/15 the error has been fixed.
