A free online tally counter for anything you count
ClickTally is a free online tally counter that turns any phone, tablet, or computer into a simple counting tool. Instead of keeping numbers in your head or scribbling tally marks on paper, tap the big +1 button every time something happens: a person walks through the door, a knitting row is finished, a lap is completed, or a delivery box is checked off. The count updates instantly in large, easy-to-read digits, so a single glance tells you exactly where you stand.
There is nothing to install and no account to create. The counter loads straight in your browser and works on any device with a web connection, including older phones. Because the interface is deliberately minimal — one giant button, one number — it stays usable even in bright sunlight, with wet hands, or while you are holding something else in your other hand.
Your count is saved automatically
Every change to the number is written to your browser's local storage immediately, so refreshing the page, closing the tab, or accidentally locking your phone will not lose your progress. Come back tomorrow and the counter picks up exactly where you left off. The sound and vibration settings are remembered too, so the tool behaves the same way every time you return.
When you are done counting, export the result as a CSV file with one tap — handy for inventory counts, attendance sheets, or workout logs. Made a mistake? Hold the minus button for half a second to step back, or hold reset to start over. Keyboard users get shortcuts as well: space adds one, the arrow keys subtract, and R resets. Nothing you count ever leaves your device.
Who uses an online tally counter?
The honest answer is: everyone, eventually. Teachers count students onto buses and back into classrooms. Event staff track headcounts against room capacity. Bakers count batches, anglers count catches, birders count species at the feeder, and mechanics count turns when torque matters. Anywhere a running total is more useful than a memory, a tally counter earns its place.
If one number is not enough, ClickTally grows with the job: run a dozen named counters on one page, keep score for two teams side by side, or switch to the click speed test for a completely different kind of counting. Every tool on this site is free, private, and saved automatically in your browser.
