What’s new at SnapCount
A curated record of the product improvements that help teams count with more confidence.
- Read live counts from a public API, or receive signed webhooks
Pro and Enterprise workspaces can create API keys to read counter totals and history, and send signed webhooks when a count changes. Enterprise keeps higher rate limits. Threshold alert events still fire only when Enterprise alerts fire.
- Create a Bearer API key in Settings and call GET /api/v1/counters, a single counter, or its history.
- Subscribe an HTTPS URL to counter.increment, counter.decrement, and threshold.alert.fired. SnapCount signs each post with X-SnapCount-Signature.
- Pro allows 60 requests per minute and 1,000 per hour. Enterprise allows 300 per minute and 10,000 per hour.
- Developer docs on /developers now describe the public API and webhooks. oEmbed is unchanged. There is still no public write API or MCP server.
- Version 1.1.4Counting fast on iPhone now keeps up with you
Holding plus or minus could stall, and the total sometimes jumped back a few before settling. The goal bar had the same problem from a different cause: it moved in whole percent steps, so on a large goal it sat still for several taps and then snapped forward. Plan and billing also now lists everything a plan includes.
- Hold plus or minus and the total climbs cleanly instead of stalling or jumping back a few.
- The goal bar fills as you count rather than sitting still and then snapping forward, which was most obvious on large goals.
- Counting on the counters list keeps up with a fast hold the same way the counter screen does.
- Plan and billing shows everything your plan includes, including the read-only API and webhooks, automatic resets, and capacity threshold alerts.
- Enterprise now opens with everything in Pro, so unlimited counters and live sync no longer look like they stop at Pro.
- Create a numbered set of counters in one step
Type a prefix and a count to create Runner 1 through Runner 100 in a summed group. Delete the group and its counters together. Plan cards now say unlimited counters, and the FAQ explains members versus counters.
- Create a numbered set from the dashboard: prefix plus how many, up to 200 counters in a summed group.
- Delete a group and its counters in one action, with Undo after a numbered-set create.
- Pro and Enterprise plan cards now say unlimited counters.
- FAQ: a member is a person who taps; a counter is the thing being counted.
- Version 1.1.3Guest counts follow you into an account on iPhone
Save a guest session while signing up and the counters arrive in your workspace, rather than ending with the session.
- Tap Save on a guest session, create an account, and the count you already took is waiting in your workspace instead of ending with the session.
- Set a counter to an exact number when a total needs correcting, rather than resetting to zero and counting back up.
- Change your name from Account settings.
- The Pro stats and daily reports announced on 6 September are available on iPhone from this version.
- Read secondary labels and captions more easily. Muted text now meets WCAG AA contrast in both light and dark mode.
- See the shape of a screen while it loads instead of a spinner, including the shared guest session a link opens.
- Cancelling now offers to skip your next bill
Starting a cancellation opens a short flow instead of a single confirmation. Monthly workspaces can move their next charge out by a month, everyone can swap to a lifetime plan, and the cancel itself now asks one question.
- Skip your next bill and keep everything, offered once per workspace on monthly plans that have renewed at least once.
- Take the plan for good with a one-time payment instead, so there is nothing left to cancel.
- Tell us in one tap what made you leave, with an optional note, before the cancellation is scheduled.
- Lifetime plans return as a limited offer
Lifetime is available again through a limited offer on the pricing page. Billing settings now tells a new lifetime purchase apart from a grandfathered one, so each keeps the right terms.
- A lifetime offer opens for a short window with a countdown that survives signup and reload.
- A lifetime purchase made today follows current Pro or Enterprise terms, including seats.
- Grandfathered Lifetime (legacy) plans are unchanged and stay labelled as legacy.
- Pro now includes counter stats and daily reports
Pro workspaces can open week, month, and year stats, download a daily CSV or JSON report, and schedule email delivery. Event history, activity logs, and locks stay on Enterprise.
- Open the existing stats panel on Pro counters.
- Download a daily CSV or JSON report, or email it on a schedule.
- Event history and the activity log remain Enterprise.
- Scoreboards now offer to keep the result, not to add teammates
A live scoreboard is usually one person keeping score, so it no longer opens with a join code or asks you to add scorers. It offers to save the result instead.
- Starting a scoreboard no longer opens the join QR code. The share button is still there when you want it.
- Once you score inside a live scoreboard, the save card offers to keep the final score, the team names, and the setup.
- The expiry warning now speaks about keeping the result rather than adding more screens and scorers.
- Pricing now starts from what Guest Mode already gives you
The pricing page compares Guest to Pro on the jobs you already did, so the paid part is the record you hand off rather than the live sync you already have.
- A Guest vs Pro table covers multiple counters on one total, the person at the desk watching it, and the number for a grant, bulletin, or CRM field.
- If you counted in this browser, the page greets you with the count you already have instead of a generic plan pitch.
- The Pro card lists only what Pro adds on top of Guest Mode: saved counters, seats, and the export.
- Get alerts when a count hits capacity
Enterprise workspaces can now set a threshold on a counter or grouped occupancy and see it fire in the dashboard inbox.
- Alert at the goal or capacity, at a percent of that number, or at a custom count.
- Owners and admins get an unread badge and inbox on the dashboard, plus email when a threshold fires.
- Stadium and multi-gate groups with a summed or net total can alert on the combined occupancy.
- Keep counting when the connection drops
Plus and minus stay available offline. Taps wait on this device and sync when you reconnect.
- Guest tally buttons stay enabled while you are offline.
- An alert tells you counts are saved locally. It does not say counting has to stop.
- When you reconnect, queued taps drain in order and the waiting banner clears.
- Signed-in counts hold through a dropped connection
Dashboard taps now stay on this device when the signal drops, then sync in order once you reconnect.
- Count on a previously loaded counter while offline. The number stays put and a banner shows how many taps are waiting.
- When the connection returns, queued taps replay in order. A tap that already reached the server is not counted twice.
- Guest sessions already worked this way. Signed-in counters now match them.
- See the right upgrade when a paid feature is needed
Upgrade prompts now appear at the moment you try to save, export, invite, or use an Enterprise control, with a way to keep counting.
- Save a guest session to Pro before it ends, or keep counting without a card.
- Export snapshots, invite teammates, and save durable workspaces from Pro, with Enterprise only for locks, activity, and access controls.
- Each prompt appears once per session, and lifetime plans are not asked to buy the same tier again.
- Choose Pro or Enterprise by month or year
New web plans are Pro and Enterprise subscriptions. Existing lifetime buyers keep access and are not asked to switch.
- Buy Pro for $15/mo or $129/yr, with 10 seats and today's Team workspace features.
- Buy Enterprise for $39/mo or $349/yr when you need locks, activity logs, and timestamped or daily CSV exports.
- Keep a Lifetime (legacy) plan if you already bought Team or Enterprise once. Stadium stays a sales-led $999+ option.
- See the right upgrade for each workspace
Upgrade prompts now follow the selected workspace and take you directly to the plan required by the feature you tried to use.
- See the selected workspace's current plan and available upgrade instead of another workspace's plan.
- Go directly to Enterprise when opening an Enterprise-only feature.
- Use clear upgrade buttons for detailed and scheduled reports on phones, tablets, and desktops.
- Reach your first live count faster
New workspaces can start a counter in one tap, count before sharing, and finish setup without paid features interrupting the first run.
- Start with a blank live counter immediately or choose a ready-made workflow.
- Make the first count before SnapCount asks you to share it with another screen.
- Finish the shorter setup checklist with a counter, a live view, and a teammate.
- Read every pricing plan without clipped details
Team, Enterprise, and Stadium plan details now have enough room to stay readable across tablet and desktop screens.
- Compare Team and Enterprise in wider cards on medium screens.
- See all three paid plans together once the screen has room for them.
- Read every plan guide price without text being cut off.
- Keep public pages within every screen
Pricing, developer resources, localized tools, and blog guides now stay within the viewport, while related counting links appear before the page footer.
- Read wide comparison tables and long examples on phones without widening the whole page.
- Wrap long localized headings and developer documentation cleanly on compact screens.
- Keep the legal links, language switcher, and copyright line as the final page section.
- Open an Event Command Center without an account
Start a free ops board with Gate A and Gate B plus live capacity remaining. The first live sync in the guest session is the demo.
- See Gate A and Gate B entry and exit side by side, with remaining capacity updating live.
- Use the template from the gallery with no account. Share a link or QR so a second device joins the same board.
- This is a live count for ops, not a fire code or safety certification.
- Clearer public product and counting information
Public pages now distinguish web and iPhone details, consolidate overlapping examples, and state manual-counting limits more clearly.
- See Team, Enterprise, and Stadium details consistently across public pricing resources.
- Reach the working counter tool when an older use-case page describes the same job.
- Read clearer limitations on illustrative workflows and manual counting examples.
- Start counting and show a QR from the first click
Logged-out Start buttons now open a relevant shared session with the QR ready, so a second person can join without picking a template first.
- Use the header, bottom CTA, pricing preview, Features, and footer guest buttons to land on a live session with the QR open.
- Keep the template catalog for signed-in teams that already have a workspace.
- Describe guest session time limits honestly on the exit-intent prompt instead of promising unlimited history.
- See Stadium next to the $49 Team lifetime plan
Compare Team lifetime access with Stadium, a custom ops plan for venues counting 50,000+ entries across 20+ gates.
- See Stadium from $999 with dedicated onboarding and an SLA.
- Keep Team at $49 lifetime as the plan for a small event crew.
- Share the headline: lifetime tally counter for your whole team, $49, no subscription.
- Share a Verified Headcount badge after every count
Closing a Team or Enterprise Live Run now prepares a branded badge with the event name, final count, and timestamp, ready to attach to a report or share.
- Generate a Verified Headcount badge automatically when a paid workspace Live Run is closed and saved.
- Download a PNG or PDF, or share the image, without rebuilding the total from screenshots.
- Keep the record honest: the badge shows the saved SnapCount total and is not a legal or capacity certification.

Quickly compare a shared live count and one-time access with clickers, paper tallies, recurring subscriptions, and after-shift spreadsheets.
- See the $49 Team lifetime price before comparing plans, with no recurring subscription.

- Match Enterprise with warehouse supervisors and traffic research teams that need audit trails, detailed exports, reports, and controls.
- Your counts hold, even when the signal does not
Counting together no longer loses taps, and a dropped connection now holds your counts on the device until they can sync.
- Two people counting the same session at the same time no longer overwrite each other, so every tap is kept.
- Tap while offline and the number stays put. A banner shows how many counts are waiting, and they sync themselves once you reconnect.
- Gate entries and exits, wine cases and bottles, and plain tallies are all covered, and a count that syncs twice is only ever counted once.

Turn store zones, departments, or stock rooms into one live inventory count you can open on a second device by QR code.
