Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Counter at none against Counter Tally Count's shown. Counter also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). Counter Tally Count's advantage is ratings volume (14K vs 1) and review sentiment (87% vs 69%). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Counter Tally Count sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Counter sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Counter holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Counter Tally Count has 14K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 87% of Counter Tally Count's written reviews are positive against 69% of Counter's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Counter Tally Count ships an update every 3 weeks, Counter weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
