My favorite iPhone apps are usually the ones that are very limited in scope, but not limited in depth.
Today’s app recommendation falls in to that category.
HelvetiCount is a counter app for the iPhone. Fire it up, and your iPhone becomes one of those old-school thumb counter device thingie. You know, the kind you see old ladies using to count people entering a theatre before a play.
It is kind of hard to explain how this app works better than the developer did on the the website:
HelvetiCount is designed with the touch screen in mind. Tap to increment and swipe down to decrement the counter. Swipe left and right to switch between counters (up to 10 simultaneous counters). And, of course, you get audio feedback on everything–up/down counts, counter switch and overflow–so that you never have to look down at the screen and miss counting anything.
It’s great — easy to use, nice looking and full-featured.
It’s $1.99 in the App Store.
