## What is Simple Counter?

The simplest and most beautiful tally counter app!

Great for tracking habits, game scoring, and counting all other important things in your life.

Tap anywhere to count up. Swipe left to count down. Hold for options. Simple as that!

• UNLIMITED COUNTERS. And they are shown in a beautiful, adaptive layout.
• COUNT MANY AT ONCE. And do it right in the list, without hassle. Great for game scoring!
• FULL SCREEN MODE. For when you don't want to or can't look at the screen while counting. Just pinch to zoom in on a counter in the list, and—voilà!—the whole screen's the button!
• SET THE COUNT MANUALLY. Get a head start! Just tap on the count while showing the options, and enter a new amount.
• QUICKLY ADD A TITLE. But you certainly don't have to.
• NICE SOUND EFFECTS. Or, you can have the app speak the current count to you.
• AND MORE: Optional vibration on count, bulk deletion & resetting, option to prevent the screen from auto locking, and (of course) an awesome experience.

Developed and designed by Arvid Lunnemark. From Malmö, Sweden with love.

### 5/5 — ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!

*2026-05-07, version 1.2*

No ads, Love the font, it's colorful, you can add more, and best of all...
ITS FREE!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Great app! Would like larger text

*2025-08-11, version 1.2*

This is an awesome app! I use it on my Mac. I would love the option to make the text larger - I have ADHD and forget what I am doing often. That would help me be able to easily remind myself what I’m doing without having to lean into my external display.

### 5/5 — Helps with knitting & crochet!

*2022-07-10, version 1.2*

This app is beautifully simplistic! I love how I can set up just one counter for keeping track of rows for knitting, but also to add an additional counter if I need to keep track of my stitches when I crochet! Also love how it calls out the number(this helps so I know my tap on my screen registered). With split the screen feature(not an app feature but an ipad feature), I can read my pattern and keep count! Love this counter!

### 5/5 — Great counter

*2020-04-07, version 1.2*

Four years without an update, but it is still the best counting app out there!

I had been looking for a counter app for a while. I downloaded a couple of free apps, but I couldn't immediately figure out how they worked. I wanted an app that simple to use with no brain required in operating it.

This is it. I don't have to use my brain to figure out how to operate it, which is perfect for me. Launch & tap, with multiple counters. Name the counters & select the colour for each. Too easy!

It's exactly what I wanted!

### 4/5 — Beautiful simplicity, but ...

*2019-08-28, version 1.2*

Love the flexibility!! Would readily pay $$money$$ if I could SAVE different counters. It is so useful for my sports practice stats tracking that I want to create multiple formats to re-use ....,

### 4/5 — Does not turn to landscape

*2018-12-26, version 1.2*

Otherwise good

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2018-11-25, version 1.2*

Looks great! Easy to use! We enjoy playing a simple version of Straight Pool as a family with four or five players. We also play corn hole. This counter is simply perfect for these casual group games! Does the job and keeps arguments to a minimum. Perfect!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2018-08-27, version 1.2*

Very simple and very easy to use. I love it very much. If it’s have presets more than one event so l can recall the counter or the more easy .

### 5/5 — Simple and Useful

*2018-08-23, version 1.2*

We live in a world that is often complicated. It is like a “breath of fresh air” to come across an application that is so simply designed yet so extremely functional and useful.  If you need to count anything I highly recommend this app.

### 5/5 — Absolutely love it‼️

*2017-11-22, version 1.2*

SIMPLE, but amazing! This counter app is so easy to use and it's very intuitive all at the same time. I use it while rounding at the hospital. It helps me keep track of how many interactions I have had with staff on each unit (because we have to report this number monthly). 

The app developer is VERY responsive!! Thank you so very much for adding the TOTAL count in settings!! Makes my job that much easier :)

### 1.1 — 2015-08-11

Thanks for using Simple Counter!

Now you can reset all counters in one go! If you've finished keeping score in a game, and want to play another round, you don't have to go through the tedious steps of resetting each counter individually anymore. Just go to settings and tap "Reset All Counters".

This version also includes some under-the-hood improvements which you may or may not notice.
