Free Online Tally Counter
A simple digital tally counter for counting anything — people entering a room, exercise repetitions, inventory items, survey responses, bird sightings, or any event you need to track. Click the + button or press the spacebar to increment. Add multiple counters with custom labels to track several things at once.
How to Use the Tally Counter
Press the large + button or hit Spacebar to add 1 to the count. Press – to subtract 1 if you make a mistake. Click Reset to bring a counter back to zero, or use Clear All to reset everything. Add a second counter with the Add Counter button — each counter can have its own custom label and color.
What Can You Count With a Tally Counter?
People counters (attendance, crowd size), fitness (reps, sets, laps), inventory (stock counting), classrooms (attendance, behavior tracking), birdwatching and wildlife surveys, prayer beads and meditation counts, sports (points, shots, events), and any manual counting task where a physical clicker would normally be used.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a keyboard shortcut to count?
Yes. Press Spacebar to increment the active counter. Press Backspace or – to subtract 1. If you have multiple counters, click one to make it active, then use the keyboard shortcuts.
Can I have multiple counters at once?
Yes. Click Add Counter to add as many counters as you need, each with its own label, count, and color. This is useful for tracking multiple categories simultaneously.
Does the count save if I refresh the page?
Yes. The tally counter saves your counts to browser localStorage, so they persist if you accidentally refresh the page. Use Clear All to intentionally reset everything.
