Tally Marks counts the way you do on paper: four strokes, a line through, on a notebook page. Tap to add a mark, long press to subtract, swipe to delete. WHY TALLY MARKS Counting in a notes app means typing and retyping numbers. Most counter apps overcomplicate it. Tally Marks is faster and nicer to look at: hand-drawn strokes filling a page, so you see your count grow instead of just reading a number. MADE TO STAY OUT OF YOUR WAY • One quick tap to count • As many tallies on the page as you need • Ad-free, no tracking, works offline WHAT YOU CAN COUNT Coffees, habit streaks, pull-ups, laps, glasses of water — anything worth keeping score of.
