Tichu Counter is a straightforward, no-frills utility app for fans of the Tichu card game. If you've ever played Tichu, you know that keeping score can be a bit of a headache due to the way points are distributed. This app does one thing and does it well: it removes the math from your game night.
The UI is minimalist, which is actually a benefit here as it stays out of the way. It tracks the points for both teams accurately and keeps a history of the rounds. While it doesn't have any flashy features or animations, it's a stable and reliable companion. It's the kind of app that sits in a folder and gets pulled out once a week, performing its function perfectly without any fuss. It could benefit from a few more customization options, but for a free tool, it’s a solid addition for any card player.

I have a small group of friends that swear by this at our gatherings. We love the data, and only wish we could combine all of our phone data to one source.
I’ve tried about all of the Tichu trackers on the App Store, and this is definitely the best. Great work!
