User Reviews

Users generally praised the app as a useful SMS counter when it worked, especially for saved contacts and for long-term use. However, the majority report that the app no longer works or is unavailable on the Play Store, with many redirected to install APKs from third‑party stores. When functional, counts could be unreliable (over-counting, OTP messages) and it often failed to count messages from unknown numbers or show delivery status. Overall, the app is widely considered non-functional now despite some positive past feedback.

Pros

Useful SMS counter when it worked, especially for saved contacts and for tracking messages over long periods.
Positive sentiment (e.g., 'Fantastic app I love it' and 'This app is good'), indicating user satisfaction when functional.
Provided basic SMS counting functionality (counts messages).

Cons

App no longer works / unavailable on Google Play; many users report it is not functional and cannot be downloaded normally.
Requires installing an APK from third‑party stores or redirecting to other app stores, complicating installation.
Counts are unreliable or inaccurate (over-counting, counting OTP messages, or showing inflated numbers).
Limited counting scope (counts for saved contacts only; does not count unknown numbers) and lacks delivery status.
Device compatibility issues and general instability (e.g., not opening on certain devices).
