What is an items counter?

An items counter keeps a running total of things as you handle them: parcels packed, products sold, pieces made. In Tapsle each type of item gets its own counter, with a step for boxes and a note for where and when you counted.

  • One tap per item, or a step per box
  • A note on every counter
  • Set value when you already know a number
  • Export every count to one file
Your items, in Tapsle

Count by the piece or by the box.

Set a step of 6, 12 or 24 and each tap adds a whole box. Write a note, such as “Shelf B, Monday”, so the number still makes sense next week.

    Pick a templateChoose Parcels, Boxes, Sold or Made above, or start a blank counter.

  4. 4

Notes that explain the number

A number on its own is easy to misread later. Add a note to any counter, such as “Warehouse A, 1 September” or “only full boxes”, and it stays with the count.

One counter per item type

Add a counter for each product, size or colour. Each keeps its own number, step and note. For stock checks across shelves and locations, use the inventory counter.

Items counter questions

Does the items counter save my count?

Yes. Every tap is saved in your browser straight away, so the count is still there when you come back on the same device, even offline.

Can I count by the box?

Yes. Set a step, such as 6, 12 or 24, and each tap adds that many. Minus takes the same amount away.

Can I type in a number I already know?

Yes. Use Set value to enter a number, then keep counting from there.

Is Tapsle free?

Yes. Unlimited counters, targets, steps, notes, lock, focus mode, pop out and export are free, with no account. Free includes up to 5 groups and 1 counter on a timer. Tapsle Plus adds sync, backups, longer history, shared counters and integrations, for $2.99 a month or $25.99 a year.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Once Tapsle has loaded, counting keeps working with no connection, and you can install it on your phone or computer like an app. Your counts are saved on your device as you go.

Can I export my counters?

Yes, free. Export saves every counter to one file, and Import brings them back on any device. Your counts belong to you.

Is my data private?

Yes. Your counters stay on your device. There is no account, and nothing is sent to us unless you turn on sync with Tapsle Plus.
