Meeting Count is an independent attendance counting app designed for Jehovah's Witnesses who need a simple, private way to count meeting, assembly, and convention attendance. The app is built for the practical work of counting people in person and on Zoom. Open the counter, tap to add attendance, subtract when needed, and keep the count visible without extra setup. Meeting Count is made to feel fast, calm, and easy to use during a real meeting, even when you need to stay focused on what is happening around you. Main features: - Classic attendance counter for regular congregation meetings - Zoom Count support for tracking online attendance separately - Assembly Mode for larger gatherings and longer counting sessions - Attendance history with saved meeting records - Editable history entries so you can correct titles or details later - Share and copy tools for sending a clean attendance summary - Multi-language support for a wide range of users - Light mode and left-handed mode options - Haptic feedback for confident tapping - Bible chronology section with searchable timeline content - Local privacy-first storage with no account required Meeting Count stores attendance records only on your device. It does not require a login, does not upload your attendance history to a server, and does not collect your attendance data. Your counts, history, preferences, and settings remain local to the device unless you choose to share a summary using the built-in copy or share tools. The app is useful for brothers assigned to count attendance, attendants, congregation helpers, and anyone who wants a clean tool for keeping meeting totals organized. Instead of using a note, calculator, or paper tally, Meeting Count keeps the core actions close at hand: count, adjust, review, save, and share. Zoom Count helps when a meeting includes both in-person and online attendance. You can keep the total clear while still recording the online number separately, making it easier to prepare a complete summary at the end. Assembly Mode is designed for larger events where the count may be higher and the session may last longer. The interface keeps the main count readable and gives you a focused way to track attendance without unnecessary distractions. History helps you look back at previous meetings and attendance patterns. Saved records can include meeting titles and totals, giving you a simple local record over time. The history view is intended for quick reference, not cloud reporting or public sharing. The Bible chronology section is included as an additional study and reference tool. You can browse timeline content, search for people or events, and explore chronology information in a way that fits naturally alongside the app's meeting-focused tools. The language options are meant to make the app easier to use for congregations, families, and helpers in many parts of the world. The wording inside the app is designed to stay simple, direct, and practical, so users can focus on the count instead of learning a complicated system. Meeting Count is also built for repeat use. The interface avoids unnecessary setup screens, accounts, or cloud services. When you need a count, you can open the app and begin. When the meeting is finished, you can save the result, copy it, or share it using the standard iPhone share tools. Simple, focused, private, and ready when needed. Meeting Count is free to use. The optional Support Developers section uses Apple's in-app purchase system only and does not unlock features, remove limits, or change the app's behavior. It is simply an optional way to support continued development. Important: Meeting Count is an independent app for Jehovah's Witnesses. It is not an official app of Jehovah's Witnesses, JW.ORG, Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania, or any related legal entity. It is not endorsed, sponsored, published, or approved by those organizations.
