CountMeSilly is the only counting/tally app you will ever need! CountMeSilly has a beautifully simplistic interface that allows you to count anything with ease.

CountMeSilly is also fully accessible using VoiceOver. CountMeSilly can be used to keep count/tally of anything you'd like, including: - Tracking the amount you've drunk that day. - Counting how many people are entering or leaving. - Logging your step count to compare daily trends. - Keeping score in board game matches. And much more, the possibilities are endless! The free version of CountMeSilly allows you to create 2 counters with limited customisation. CountMeSilly Premium (one-time purchase) unlocks the following features: - Full customisation including choosing when your counter auto-resets. - The ability to sync and back up all your data to iCloud which allows syncing between devices. - Export your counters in JSON format for easy backup on your own device or to restore your counters quickly and easily. - Support of a small Indie app developer like myself.
