Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Tally at 4.1 against Counters 2's 2.6. Tally also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 20 months) and ratings volume (31 vs 7). Counters 2's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.6). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Counters 2 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Tally sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Tally holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 2.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 7 and 31 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 53% of Counters 2's written reviews are positive against 50% of Tally's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Counters 2 ships an update every 20 months, Tally monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and September 26, 2026 respectively.
