People counter. How it works and what it is for

A people counter records how many people have passed a point or are present in a room. Tap once per person as they pass. Set your capacity as a target and the counter tells you when you reach it, which is the number that actually matters for a door count or a fire limit.

How do you count people accurately at a door?

Count at a single fixed line, not a general area, and count as each person crosses it rather than after a group has passed. Tap without looking at the screen so your eyes stay on the door. If a group arrives together, count them one tap at a time rather than estimating, since estimates are where door counts go wrong.

How do you count people entering and leaving?

The reliable manual method is two counters: one device or one session for in, another for out, with the occupancy being the difference. Trying to add and subtract on one counter during a busy period is how numbers get lost.

Can this replace an automatic footfall sensor?

For a single door, a short survey or an event, a manual count is accurate and costs nothing. Sensors are worth it when you need continuous counts across many entrances over months. For everything else, a person with a counter is more accurate than a cheap sensor, because a person can tell a customer from a delivery.

Frequently asked questions

What is a people counter?

A people counter records the number of people passing a point or present in a space, one press per person.

How do I track venue capacity with a counter?

Set your maximum capacity as the target. The counter shows how many places are left and marks the point where you are full.

Is this counter free?

Yes. It is free to use, has no adverts, no premium tier and no sign-up. Every feature is available to everyone.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Once the page has loaded once, the counter keeps working with no internet connection and your count is kept on your device.

Is my count saved if I close the tab?

Yes. The current count is stored in your browser on your own device, so reopening the page picks up where you left off. Clearing your browser data clears the count.
