Tallies — Habit Tracker

Tallies is a quiet tally app for the things you'd rather just count.

A workout rep. A bird at the feeder. A row of knitting. A page read. A prayer bead. Anything you'd otherwise mark on the back of an envelope.

Open Tallies, swipe across the page, and a felt-marker stroke appears. Five swipes give you the familiar four-and-a-cross. The page fills like a notebook — no badges, no streaks, no targets, no scolding.

Free to start. One journal and two items per journal are free. Unlock the full app for a single $2.99 — no subscription, ever.


WHAT IT'S FOR

• Workout reps and sets
• Knitting rows and stitches
• Prayer beads and rosaries
• Pages read, books finished
• Birds at the feeder
• Days sober, days run, days anything
• Cups of water, cups of tea
• Anything you'd otherwise tally on paper


WHAT IT ISN'T

• A habit tracker that scolds you
• A streak machine
• A productivity coach
• A behavior-engineering tool

There are no notifications by default. No "you broke your streak." No goals you didn't ask for. You count what you want, when you want, and the page remembers.


A BOOK OF PAGES

Each thing you track gets its own page in a book. Switch between pages with a flick. Flip to Totals for any item to see today, this week, this month, and all-time counts on a quiet chart on paper.
