CountThings from Photos 4+

Stamps please!

Very impressive! Counted my pills perfectly where other apps couldn’t tell the difference between 15 and 4. Didn’t ask me for any money and let me use the app as a guest and it worked fine.

Would love to see a template that counts postage stamps. I’ll try one of the other templates in the meantime. If it lets me count the stamps, I’ll be back to change my four stars to five. (It’s not letting me attach a photo in the request a template message area inside the app. I’m on an iPhone 13.)

Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate it. To help us investigate the issue with attaching photos in the request a template message area, could you please email us a screenshot of the problem and any related messages? This will assist us in resolving the issue.


Regarding counting postage stamps, you can try using the "Keyboard & Remotes ID:435" or "Packets ID:117" templates. Let us know if either of them works for your needs.

Frustrating for a Professor

I am an accounting professor who teaches auditing, and was planning to use this in my class with a case from Ernst and Young (EY Foundation). This would be amazing software to teach my students. The only issue is there is no educational trial or plan that would allow students to try this in any meaningful way. The case has a picture of over 3,000 sheep in an aerial view from a drone picture for an inventory count. The free trial allows you to count “up to 10 items.” It would be unconscionable to require my students to purchase an $80 software application that they will likely never need again (their firm would have access). So, unfortunately, while the software is likely great, the accessibility is not. It would be more effective to allow the free trial to count any number of things but limit it to 5 (or some number of) separate counts. This is immensely disappointing, as I’m missing out on being able to deliver a great learning opportunity to my students.

All around great

We were looking for an app to count metal pipe for our business and stumbled upon countthings. We tried the free trial and it worked great. The customer service department was excellent and worked with us to develop a customized plan to fit our business needs. We highly recommend this app if you’re looking for an app to count product. Know that their CS will take care of you and any concerns you man have. Thanks Cristian, and the Count Things team!
