Tally Counter, the tap counter for tasbeeh, rows, people and stock
Clicker, tasbeeh, row counter
Tally Counter started as a tasbeeh counter for after prayer, and grew to cover knitting rows, delivery counts and lap counts too. It is a manual tap counter for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, built for anyone who still counts by hand.

What can you count with it?
Two kinds of counter share one list. A standard counter is a big number, one large button that adds your step size (1 to 100), and a round Decrease button that steps back and stops at 0. A tasbeeh counter is different: almost the whole screen becomes one tap zone, and it counts in cycles of 33, 99 or 100 instead of climbing forever.
- Dhikr: Tasbeeh after prayer (33·33·34) creates Subhanallah, Alhamdulillah and Allahu Akbar in one tap, 100 beads in total. More dhikr adds Astaghfirullah or Salawat at 100.
- Goals: turn on Set a goal and a progress bar fills until the app vibrates and shows Goal reached!.
- Exact values: long-press the big button for +5, +10 or Enter Amount… to type the right number.
- History: every tap is logged with its time, grouped by day, with Total taps and Current at the top.
- Blind counting: Count with volume buttons lets either volume button count while a counter is open.
- Apple Watch: tap the screen or turn the Digital Crown on counters you made on the iPhone.
Quick start
- Open the app and tap + at the top of Counters.
- Choose New Counter, New Tasbeeh Counter or one of the dhikr presets.
- Give it a Name, pick an Icon and a Color, then tap Save.
- Tap the counter in the list and start tapping.
- Use the ... menu at the top right for Edit and History.
What is free and what does Pro add?
The free plan goes further than most: 3 counters of any kind, tasbeeh mode, the presets, history, volume-button counting and the Apple Watch app, no catch. Hit the limit and Watch Ad for +1 Counter buys one more slot until you close the app.
Skip Lifetime unless you're sure you'll keep using it past a year or two; the weekly and monthly options cost less if you drop off. Pro adds unlimited counters, the Home Screen widget, 8 more colours on top of the 4 free ones, and removes ads.
Ads, privacy and offline use
No ad interrupts a counting screen, ever. Outside of that: a banner on the counters list, sometimes a full-screen ad after you delete or reset a counter, and sometimes one when you come back to the app from the background.
Counts and history stay in a database on your device. There is no account, and counting, history and the watch link work without internet; only ads and purchases go online. The one permission is tracking, asked on the Before you start page for personalised ads. Say no and the app works the same with non-personalised ads.
What it does not do
- It never counts by itself: no camera, step or rep detection. Every count is a tap, a button press or a crown turn.
- No export, sharing or iCloud sync. Only your paired Apple Watch mirrors the iPhone.
- Tasbeeh cycles are 33, 99 or 100 (34 comes only with the after-prayer preset). Standard counts cannot go negative.
- No Lock Screen widget, no watch complication, no Mac or Android version. The Home Screen widget shows a number; you cannot count from it.
