### 5/5 — Exactly what I need

*2026-02-16, version 1.12*

Responsive, simple counter app with a big button, coloured lists. Free with no ads 💙💙💙 Thanks Luke Davis! (How can I buy you a coffee?) If you get the time to add a “reset all” button, that would be a useful feature.

***Edit***
I just discovered the app integrates perfectly with iOS shortcuts and a reset all shortcut can be created easily 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

### 2/5 — Seems solid, but can’t get Siri to work

*2023-03-11*

I downloaded this because I wanted to manually track laps on my walks. I wanted to do this hands free. The Siri commands are not documented, and the ones I guessed give an error or don’t work. Fix and I’ll improve rating.

### 4/5 — Reset button location

*2022-12-10*

Would be handy if the counter reset button was on the same screen as the tap button.  

In my use, I am doing seven reps, if I make a mistake I have to reset to zero, as I am aiming for seven perfect in a row.  (Tough passages of piano music).  But I like the simplicity of the app.

### 5/5 — Great simple app.

*2022-01-02, version 1.12*

Great counter I use to count the birdies made by my golfing group. Good fun recording them and showing to the group. Wish there was a way to screen shot all counters in one picture.

### 5/5 — Beautiful and Simple

*2021-06-08, version 1.12*

Found this on Reddit, exactly what i wanted for a Siri shortcut im making, works really well - beautiful and simple design.

### 5/5 — Great and simple clean interface

*2020-05-22*

Great

### 4/5 — Great app, could use some improvements with Siri Shortcuts.

*2019-11-17*

Awesome app! But my only annoyance is with the fact that you can use the “Get Count of Tally(Variable Name)”. But you can then assign that number to a variable in the shortcuts app, or use that number for anything really. So what I would ask you to do is add the ability to get the number in such a way that I’d then be able to assign it to be a variable.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! I have been working on full Siri support and I am happy to inform you that it is now available! 

In the latest release you can search counters by name, get the current count for a given counter. Additionally, when you use the new increment and decrement actions you will receive the new value of the counter as a response. Thank you for supporting Tap.

### 5/5 — A million uses for this app!!

*2018-09-01*

The uses for the app are endless. Whether it be to keep count of errors made while tracking a student reading or to tally the amount of certain behaviors by a student in the classroom, tap can help make tracking students super easy. These are just a couple ways I plan to use this app in the classroom. There are also countless ways to use this app outside of the classroom. What a great idea!
