A reliable plan for the steps needed to use a Tasbih Counter has three stages: set a 33 or 99 round target, tap Add one for every entry, and review the local daily history before exporting a copy if needed. Start by opening the linked Tasbih Counter and choosing the target that matches the round cycle you personally want to track. The selected target stays visible beside the current round and position, so you can follow progress without doing extra arithmetic. After setup, press Add one once for each entry. When the position reaches the exact target, the interface marks the round complete; the next tap begins the following round automatically. If you make a mistaken entry, Undo one removes the most recent number before you continue. At the end of the session, open the saved local calendar days and check the dates and counts. Export a PNG when you want an image, or choose CSV for a simple Date and Count file. Keeping setup, counting, correction, review, and export as separate stages makes the whole process predictable while leaving the record on your device. Try the Tasbih Counter to do this in your browser.
Plan the session before the first tap
Planning is easiest when you settle three choices before counting: the target, whether the optional label would help you identify the counter, and when you will review or export the record. Tasbih Counter provides exactly two round targets, 33 and 99; it does not accept an arbitrary custom target. The optional label provides a local name for the counter, while the target, current round, and position show the information needed while counting.
- Before counting: choose 33 or 99 and decide whether to rename the local counter label.
- Before the session: choose the browser where you want the local history to remain.
- During counting: use one Add one press for every entry and pause only when you need to verify the position or correct a tap.
- After counting: review the saved calendar days and decide whether a separate PNG or CSV file is needed.
The tool is deliberately focused on repeated personal counts. It records the numbers you enter; it does not provide religious rulings, quotations, health claims, or advice about what you should count. Your plan determines the target and session, while the tool handles the count, marks exact round boundaries, and keeps the local daily record.
Choose between the 33 and 99 targets
Choose 33 when you intend to track a shorter repeating cycle, or 99 for a longer one. These descriptions concern the two available counter modes and are not religious recommendations. You can change the target between interactions when a different personal workflow requires it.
| Target | Completion point | Next tap | Planning use |
|---|---|---|---|
| 33 | The 33rd entry closes the round. | Starts the next round at 1 of 33. | A shorter repeating cycle. |
| 99 | The 99th entry closes the round. | Starts the next round at 1 of 99. | A longer repeating cycle. |
The completion point is exact, so you do not need to press a separate reset button. For example, with 33 selected, the count at 33 completes the first round, and the following tap begins round two at one of 33. This behavior makes it useful to decide the target before a planned session rather than switching it during an active count.
Count a session from setup to export
- Open Tasbih Counter and configure it. Select 33 or 99 as the round target. Optionally rename the local counter label, then confirm that the selected target is visible beside the current round and position.
- Begin with one deliberate press per entry. Press Add one each time you add an item to the count. The visible position advances by one for every recorded increment.
- Watch for the exact target boundary. When the count reaches the selected target, the tool marks that round complete. Do not add another entry to finish it; the next Add one press automatically starts the following round at one of the target.
- Correct an accidental press when necessary. If the most recent number was entered incorrectly, press Undo one. It removes that latest entry so you can continue from the corrected position.
- Continue until the planned session is complete. Let each exact 33 or 99 boundary create a completed round. You can continue with further rounds or stop and review the daily record.
- Open the saved history. The history list shows local calendar dates and their counts in reverse date order. Confirm that the current session appears under the correct local day.
- Export only if you need a separate file. Choose PNG for an image or CSV for a spreadsheet-style Date and Count file. Both exports are produced inside the browser without sending the record to an external processing service.
Handle round changes, corrections, and interruptions
At a completed round
Every completed round produces a visual completion state. On browsers that support the browser vibration interface, the tool also attempts a short vibration after a user tap completes a round. That optional behavior is defined by the W3C Vibration API, but it is not part of the required workflow. Safari does not support that browser API, and some devices disable vibration. The visual signal remains available, and there is no audio playback to rely on or enable.
When the local calendar day changes
Each saved increment belongs to the local calendar date on the device. A count made late at night therefore remains on that local day instead of being assigned to a UTC date. When a new local day begins, the visible count starts at zero while earlier nonzero days remain in the history list. Plan your final review around this behavior so you check the history rather than expecting the previous day’s visible position to continue after midnight.
When an entry needs correction
Use Undo one immediately after an accidental tap because it corrects the most recent number. If you continue adding entries first, undoing will still affect only the latest one. For a focused correction procedure, see how to fix a result that looks wrong in a Tasbih Counter.
Review the daily history and choose an export
The history is intentionally modest: it provides the saved date and count in reverse date order without requesting a profile or trying to infer the context of the count. Use it to verify which local days contain recorded entries, then select an export format according to the kind of file you need.
| Export | File contents | Practical use |
|---|---|---|
| PNG | A 1080 by 1350 image with a Lizely mark, a total, and recent calendar-day rows. It contains no URL and omits the optional custom label. | A separate image to keep or share. |
| CSV | A simple Date and Count file with one data row for every saved nonzero day. | A spreadsheet-ready private archive. |
Both export actions use native browser canvas and Blob functions; the image and CSV are not uploaded for processing. The custom label is deliberately left out of the PNG so a personal note is not revealed in that shareable image. A CSV export can be opened in a spreadsheet, retained as an archive, or deleted when it is no longer needed.
Protect the local record before you finish
State is stored only in browser localStorage under the counter’s own counter:tasbih-counter key, following the browser-local model described by the WHATWG Web Storage specification. There is no account, sign-in process, synchronization, or server-side profile. A separate phone or computer begins with its own empty counter, so decide early which browser should hold the record. For more background, see why a Tasbih Counter does not need a sign-in to save counts.
Clearing browser data removes the saved history. If preserving a record matters, make exporting the desired PNG or CSV an explicit final task before clearing site data or moving to another browser. If browser storage is disabled or full, Tasbih Counter keeps the current page usable and tells you that it cannot retain the history. That condition means the page should not be treated as a backup, so use an exported file when you need a separate copy.
Because no account or external service is involved, there is no synchronization step to complete and no upload confirmation to wait for. The complete plan remains local: configure the target, add each entry, use the visual round signal, correct the latest entry when needed, review the daily history, and export before browser data is cleared.
Use a short before-during-after checklist
- Before: select 33 or 99, optionally add a local label, and choose the browser that will hold the history.
- During: press Add one once per entry and let the next tap begin the next round at the exact boundary.
- Correction: press Undo one for the most recent mistaken entry.
- Completion: rely on the visual completion state even when vibration is unavailable.
- Review: check the saved local dates and counts under the correct calendar day.
- Preservation: export PNG or CSV when you need a file that remains separate from browser history.
