# Tally vs MultipleCounter

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MultipleCounter at none against Tally's 10. MultipleCounter also leads on review sentiment (91% vs 60%) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.0). Tally's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tally sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. MultipleCounter asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Tally against 4.5 for MultipleCounter. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tally has 1.1K ratings behind it against 56, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 60% of Tally's written reviews are positive against 91% of MultipleCounter's.

Tally ships an update every 2 weeks, MultipleCounter every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
