About this tool
Count anything with a big tap button or the Space bar: multiple named counters, custom step, targets with alerts, timestamped history and CSV export.
This online tally counter replaces a mechanical clicker. Tap the big button, click it, or press Space or the up arrow to add; press the down arrow or minus to subtract. Each counter has its own name, step size and optional target — when the count reaches the target you get a chime, a vibration on phones that support it, and a progress bar that fills up. Every change is logged with its exact time, so you can review when counts happened and export the full history as CSV. Up to 20 counters are saved in your browser's local storage, and nothing is sent to a server.
Open Tally Counter on AltFTool — it loads instantly in your browser.
Tap the big number area, click + or press Space, ↑ or + to add one Step; press −, ↓ or the − key to subtract, and U or Ctrl+Z to undo the last change.
Under Counter settings, set the Name, the Step (per tap) and a Target (0 = none); the progress bar shows how many are left and a chime plays when you reach it.
Press New counter to add up to 20 counters and switch between their tabs (or ← and →); press the fullscreen button or F for a distraction-free counter.
Use Export CSV to download every timestamped change for all counters, or Copy counts for a plain-text summary like "Cars: 42 / 100".
Create up to 20 named counters, switch between them with tabs or the ← → keys, and see each count on its tab plus a running total of all of them.
Set a target and a step; the progress bar shows how many are left, and reaching it plays a chime and vibrates on phones that support vibration.
Every add, subtract and reset is timestamped. Undo the last change, review the history table, or download all counters' history as a CSV for a spreadsheet.
A large tap area, fullscreen mode that keeps the screen awake where supported, keyboard shortcuts, and counts saved automatically in your browser.
A tally counter is a device for counting things one at a time — traditionally a hand-held mechanical clicker with a button and a number wheel. It is used for counting people, inventory, laps, survey observations or repetitions. An online tally counter does the same job on a phone or computer, and adds extras such as several counters, targets and a timestamped log.
Press Space, the up arrow, plus or equals to add one step, and the down arrow, minus or Backspace to subtract. U or Ctrl+Z undoes the last change, the left and right arrows switch between counters, and F toggles fullscreen. Shortcuts are ignored while you are typing in a text box, so renaming a counter will not change its count.
Yes. Counters, their settings and their history are saved automatically in your browser's local storage after every change, so they are still there when you come back on the same device and browser. Private browsing windows usually clear that storage when closed. Export to CSV if you need a permanent copy or want to move the data to another device.
Yes. Set Step (per tap) to any whole number — for example 5 to count in fives or 10 for groups of ten. The tap button, the plus and minus buttons and the keyboard shortcuts all use that step, and each counter keeps its own step setting.
By default the count stops at zero, which is what you want when counting real things. Tick Allow negative numbers in Counter settings to let it go below zero — useful for score differences or tracking net change, such as people entering and leaving a room.
Enter a number in Target. A progress bar appears showing the percentage done and how many are left. When the count first reaches or passes the target, a three-note chime plays and, on phones that support it, the device vibrates. The sound and vibration can each be switched off in Counter settings.
Yes. Export CSV downloads a file with one row per change for every counter — the counter name, date and time, the change, the new value and whether it was an add, subtract or reset. CSV opens directly in Excel, Google Sheets, Numbers or LibreOffice.
Yes. The tap area is large enough to hit without looking, counting needs no connection once the page has loaded, and fullscreen mode asks the phone to keep the screen awake where the browser supports it. Vibration feedback works on most Android phones; iPhones do not let websites vibrate.
A clicker is great in the field, but it counts only one thing, cannot undo a mistake and forgets nothing — or everything. This counter keeps many named tallies, records when each count happened, undoes slips, warns you at a target and exports the data, while still being operable with a single thumb or key.
