What this online counting machine does
Open the page and you have a running total. Set a starting number if you are not beginning at zero. Press + or − to move the count. Reset when the job is done. The layout is meant to feel like a simple counting machine, in the browser rather than as equipment you buy.
Use it for straightforward counting-machine-style tasks: keeping a total as you go, on a phone or a computer, without installing an app. For a large readable display, see the digital counter. For custom steps, negatives, and large totals, see the number counter.
When to use it
- Starting and keeping a running count in the browser
- Increasing or decreasing the total as you work
- Simple counting on a phone or computer
- A counting-machine-style total when a screen is enough
It does not count cash, weigh items, or connect to factory equipment. Those jobs need dedicated machines.
How to run the count
- Set a starting value if you are not beginning at zero.
- Press + or − to move the total.
- Undo a miss, or Reset when the job is done.
