Rosary counter. How it works and what it is for

A rosary counter keeps count of prayers when beads are not to hand. Set the target to ten to count a decade, or to a longer number for a full set. The counter is silent, needs no account and keeps the count on your own device, so it can be used in a church, on a commute or in a waiting room without disturbing anyone.

How do you count a decade without beads?

Set the target to ten and tap once for each prayer. The counter marks the tenth, which is what beads do physically. For a full set, either repeat the decade and keep count of the decades separately, or set the total number of prayers as one long target.

Is a digital counter appropriate for prayer?

Counting devices of one sort or another have accompanied prayer for a very long time, from knotted cords to beads to metal clickers. A counter is a means of keeping track, not part of the prayer itself. Many people find beads more conducive to focus and use a counter only when beads are not with them.
