Simple but needs work

1. More control of the beans. Locking 9 in a pod is clever for the bean metaphor but I want more control over my beans allowing for only 1 at first and then slowly building to 9 if I choose. But locking us at 9 and no less per screen is bad. 2. Allowing to have more than the description of the beam visible. Ha I g the date constantly visible and the ability to create more fields of info would also be cool. This way each bean is not only differentiated by color and title but also by date and other customizable fields. I want one bean per day so I can keep track of daily habits. I would need at least the date field to be visible from the zoomed out view. 3. Copy and paste a bean. I will want most of my info the same on each bean, but the date to change essentially. So the ability to duplicate a bean would be awesome! 4. Work with the lock screen, so we can tap to add beans without opening Our phones up for even easier/faster counting. EDIT: I was thinking a way to simply help with the #1 would be to have the zoom level saved as “last zoom” so when the app resets, or I close out of it and reopen, it will remember the zoom spot I was at and default to it. That way if I was zoomed in bean 2 in pod 2 I will be automatically in the same spot. Make sense? Cuz my needs are to only have one bean showing on my screen at a time. This zoom feature would solve that problem in a really cool and intuitive waY.

Nice to see that this hasn’t been forgotten

I was pleasantly surprised to find an update for this app waiting to install. It had certainly been some time since the last one, but I stuck with this app because it managed to outperform the other counting apps in spite of the bugs. The updated version finally makes use of the extra screen space on newer devices, and it doesn’t act wonky when rearranging counters.

Simple and beautiful

Does what it says it will do, I use it all the time to keep track of lots of things at once. Love it!

Beyond my own use, I can see the utility for new moms trying to keep up with number of feeds, ounces fed, and number of diapers. No need for scraps of paper that get lost!

Great! So many uses for this app.

Clean & Beautifully Simplistic

What a great little app! I was instantly mesmerized by the ability to customize and change not only the "bean counter" colors but positions, titles, and counts with the tap or swipe of a finger. Super simple and clean design which is not only a pleasure to look at but to use as well. I never knew I was missing counting everything there is to count! This app would be great for teaching counting and numbers to little ones! Match the color to the object your counting and tap to count the number you see.

Wow!
Cool!?

I have to say, I truly am surprised. There are so many uses for this app! Don't even read the reviews (or at least the rest of them.) Just buy it!

Great idea

Like using it to keep up with all sorts of things. Days of golf in a month. Office meetings this year. How many times did I fill up my take for the month. Just a sample !!
