Counter AppCounter App for Teachers and Schools
Tally participation, run headcounts on trips, count supplies, lab kit and library stock on Android, with targets, timers, notes and spreadsheet exports.
Intro
Teachers count constantly — contributions in a discussion, pupils onto a coach, calculators back into a box. Counter App — Tally & Clicker, by GiveMeMood, gives those counts a structure: counters for classes, trips or cupboards, tags inside them for students, groups or items, and a timed history of every tap. Targets tell you when a set is complete, timers keep transitions moving, and exports turn the data into a spreadsheet or a readable report. It runs on Android 12 and newer, works offline, needs no account, and is free to download with no ads; try it free for 3 days, then choose a yearly or monthly plan or a one-time lifetime purchase.
