Most counters give you a number and then take it away again. Tally Clicker keeps the number and everything around it. Every tap writes a timestamped line to that counter's tape. Add a note to explain it. Pin a photo from the camera or your library. Then look at the charts: totals by day, activity by hour, your streak, your best day, and which counters you actually use. ONE TAP TO LOG The counter screen is a single large slab. Tap anywhere on it to add your step size. Minus, undo, note, camera and library sit underneath, all within one reach. Cards on the deck carry their own plus button, so you can log without opening anything. COUNTERS THAT RESET THE WAY YOU THINK Running, daily, weekly or monthly. The big number shows the current cycle; the all-time total never resets and is always on screen. Set a target and you get a progress ring and a small celebration when you reach it. 160 READY-MADE COUNTERS Sixteen packs: movement, water and food, focus and work, study and language, home and chores, money, mind and mood, craft, outdoors and wildlife, reading and media, habits to break, kids and family, events and crowds, practice and ritual, travel, games and scores. Every one is editable. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS No account. No sign-up. No analytics, no advertising, no tracking. Counters, ticks, notes and photos live in the app's own storage and are never uploaded. Export a single counter, a filtered view, or everything at once as CSV. REMINDERS THAT BEHAVE Pick a time and the days of the week on any counter. Reminders are scheduled locally on your device, so no server is involved. An optional evening nudge protects a streak that is still open. ALSO INSIDE Six hand-tuned themes in light and dark, twenty-six badges, a photo wall for every counter, an archive for retired counters, pinning, search across the whole template library, a shareable summary card, and an offline field guide. Full VoiceOver labelling, Dynamic Type, and layouts built properly for iPhone and iPad in both orientations. Count something. Then find out what you actually did.
