Stay in touch with friends who live far away.
Headcount is one button. Press it, and everyone in your group gets a notification. They tap back with an emoji. That is the whole app.

What it does
Four things, and nothing else. There is no feed, no chat to keep up with, and no algorithm deciding who hears from you.
-
One message per group
Every group has a single message, written once when the group is created. Pressing the button sends it. Nothing to compose, nothing to think of first.
-
Everyone hears it at once
One press notifies every other person in the group at the same time. Nobody has to be included by name and nobody gets left out.
-
A tap is a real reply
Six emoji to choose from. Tapping one is a complete answer — enough to say you saw it, without owing anyone a paragraph.
-
Streaks for consistency
Each group keeps count of the days someone reached out. It is a quiet marker for the friendships that are easiest to let drift.
How it works
Three steps, once, and then it is a button.
-
Make a group
Name it, write the one message it will send, and share the invite code with the people you want in it.
-
Press the button
Whenever you are thinking of them. Everyone else in the group gets a notification with your group's message and your name on it.
-
They tap back
One of six emoji. The group's streak grows for every day somebody reached out, and you can see who has.
Why it is this small
Group chats between people in different cities tend to go quiet — not because anyone stopped caring, but because after a long enough gap a message starts to feel like it has to be a good one. So nobody sends it.
Headcount removes that. There is no message to write and no reply to compose, so there is nothing to put off. One button, one emoji back, and the people you moved away from still hear from you.
