Free Tally Counter
Tap-to-count clicker with multiple counters.
What is the Tally Counter?
Counting by hand — people through a door, laps in a pool, stitches in a row — is easy to lose track of the moment you glance away. A tally counter fixes that: one tap per thing, and the number is always right there. This one lives in your browser, so the clicker you always have is the phone in your pocket.
Your counts save automatically on your device, and you can run several at once.

What does this tool do?
It's a tap-to-count clicker. A big number fills the screen; tap it to add your step, use the minus button to correct a miscount, and reset to zero when you start again. Need to count more than one thing? Add extra counters, name each, and give each its own step size — everything is remembered between visits.
It replaces a physical hand tally and keeps several counts side by side without pen and paper.

Benefits
- The clicker you always have — your phone.
- Run several counts without losing track.
- Custom steps count in any increment.
- Counts survive locking or closing the tab.
Tips
- Make the number big on your screen and tap that — it's a larger, faster target than a small button.
- Use a step of 2, 5 or 10 to count in batches when things come in groups.
- Rename each counter ('In', 'Out', 'Reds') so you don't mix up parallel counts.
- Use the minus button the instant you notice a miscount, rather than trying to remember it.
- The counts live in this browser on this device, so do your counting on the device you'll check later.
Common mistakes to avoid
Expecting counts on another device
Fix: They save per-browser; the counts stay on the device you tapped them on.
Clearing browser data mid-count
Fix: That resets the counters — note important totals elsewhere before clearing.
Using one counter for two things
Fix: Add a separate counter per category and name each so totals stay clean.
Forgetting the step size
Fix: Check the step before a long count so each tap adds what you expect.
