A timer in one app, a counter in another, and you lose count while switching between them. Multi-Module Counter puts all of it on one screen. β–  Eight kinds of units, as many as you like β€’ Countdown β€” keeps counting the overtime after it hits zero β€’ Stopwatch β€” with laps β€’ Interval β€” work and rest, round after round β€’ Chess clock β€” two players, tap to switch turns β€’ Counter β€” name it, color it, count with + and βˆ’ β€’ Scoreboard β€” 2 to 4 teams side by side β€’ Level meter β€” crowd level in dB with peak hold β€’ Buzzer β€” gather around the phone; the first color to tap wins Units come in 1Γ—1 and 2Γ—1 sizes. Timers can show a bar or a ring. β–  One start. Everything runs. The three keys at the top control the whole board. Link units, like locking a counter the moment a timer runs out, and you get an exact count of what happened within the time. β–  Save a layout for every occasion Charades, workout, board game, cooking, quiz. Start from a preset, then save and switch your own layouts. β–  Readable from across the table Big, heavy, monospaced digits you can read with the phone in the middle of the table.

The last 10 seconds are shown in color and sound (sound can be turned off). β–  Keep and share results Stop the board and every unit’s final value lands on one result card. Share it as an image. β–  Free Up to 4 units, 2 layouts and 20 results. One small banner at the bottom of the screen, never on the board, plus a full-screen ad only at natural breaks such as when a timer ends or the board is stopped. β–  Pro (one-time purchase) β€’ Unlimited units, layouts and results β€’ iCloud sync β€’ Ads and share-image watermark hidden No subscription, no free trial, no upsell. β–  Please note The level meter uses the phone’s microphone and is indicative only.
