Multi Counter is the simplest way to tally several things at the same time. Tap to add, tap to subtract, and every press is timestamped — so you don't only know how many, you know when. Built for shopkeepers counting visitors at two doorways, knitters tracking rows and stitches, coaches counting laps, worshippers reciting prayers and zikr, students taking attendance, researchers logging behaviors, and anyone who has ever worn out their thumb on a mechanical clicker. KEY FEATURES • Multi-card layout — count two or more things at once, each card independent • Drag-and-arrange cards to mirror real-world positions (e.g. "left shop" vs "right shop") • Counting sessions — end a round to start fresh; old rounds stay in History forever • Live timeline statistics — bar chart by 1-min / 5-min / 1-hour buckets, switch between bucket-delta and cumulative views • Custom starting value per card, plus quick +1, −1, +5, −5 actions • Per-card custom sound effects, background image, and stereo panning • CSV export (UTF-8 with BOM, opens cleanly in Excel) — share via any app PRIVATE BY DESIGN All data stays on your device. No account, no tracking, no ads, works fully offline. PRO The free version supports up to 2 counter cards. Pro unlocks unlimited cards. One-time purchase, not a subscription. Available in 20+ languages including English, 简体中文, 繁體中文, 日本語, 한국어, Español, Português, Français, Deutsch, Italiano, Türkçe, Bahasa Indonesia, Tiếng Việt, ภาษาไทย, हिन्दी, বাংলা, العربية, فارسی, اردو and Русский.
