Latest reviews of Flick Counter - Tally Counter , Measure without looking at the screen app for iPhone and iPad
I used this for a traffic count at a busy intersection, recording 5 different movements at the same time. This app made it a breeze (and slightly fun). One thing that would be nice to see is having the reset button more accessible (like at the top of the info screen). I had to record data every 15 minutes, non stop, and had to quickly reset the counts each time. I needed to do so as fast as possible.
This app works great, and is perfect for counting orange trees in citrus groves. This is because we often have to count and separate healthy from sick and big and small, so having five counters on one screen works great. The only suggestion I would have would be to be able to adjust the colors ourselves, or change the highly saturated colors on some of the cover backgrounds to something a little more pastel, for example.
Congrats fof the great app! Served very well its purpose. I bought the paid version just to give you a couple os suggestions for the paid version, though. You should add the following abilities to your app: 1) you should be able to change the names os the flicks in the options (eg.: right becomes women, left becomes children, etc.), 2) double-tap, then tap on one of the boxes to remove one count. Or add a button to remove one count. Sometimes you make a mistake, and there isnt a place to undo 3) add a "send results by email" button, and 4) in the options, add a toggle for each option so that you may decide if that counter is added to the total, or not. For example, you might have three counters that are added, but two that are not. Makes it more useful. With these (pretty simple) additions, it would be a perfect app for what it does. Pretty close already! Also, you would have reasons to buy the paid version. As it is, there really isnt a very good reason to pay for it, as the free version works very well. Good luck, and thanks!
