Counting

Scan or tap to count. Nothing else to learn.

Point the camera at a barcode and the number goes up. No barcode? Tap the item. No signal? Keep counting — trakrGo saves every second and syncs when you're back.

Counts live on the device first, then sync when you're back online.

Drop the phone mid-count and nothing is lost. Resume where you left off.

Three ways to get a number in

Every item in your list accepts whichever input is fastest at that shelf. Staff pick one without being trained on it.

01

Scan the barcode

EAN, UPC, Code 128 and QR. The camera stays open between items, so a shelf of twelve is twelve scans, not twelve screens.

02

Tap to count

Unlabelled produce, house-made batches, glassware. Plus and minus buttons sized for cold hands and gloves.

03

Type a decimal

Half a bottle is 0.5, two-thirds of a sack is 0.66. Open items get counted honestly instead of rounded away.

Built for the walk-in, not the desk

The counting screen is the whole app while a count is open. No menus to get lost in, no way to overwrite yesterday's numbers.

  • Count by location — bar, dry store, walk-in — and pause any of them
  • Blind counts hide expected numbers so staff count what they see
  • Several teammates on the same site, updating live
  • Unknown barcode? Add the item without leaving the count

What happens when you finish

Close the count and trakrGo compares it to what the app expected, flags the gaps and hands you a file — usually before you've washed your hands.

Questions about scanning

Do I need a barcode scanner?

No. The phone camera reads retail barcodes directly. Bluetooth sled scanners work too if your team already owns them.

What about items with no barcode?

Tap them from your item list, or type a decimal for anything half-used. Most kitchens end up with a mix of both.

Does it really work offline?

Yes. Counts are stored on the device and sync when you have signal again. Walk-ins and basements were the reason we built it this way.

Can two people count at once?

Yes. Every teammate with a user seat can count at the same time — each takes a storage area and the totals merge as they go, with no double counting. trakrGo includes one user; extra seats are $10 each, one-time.
