### Bead Counter
A smart counting tool designed specifically for the bead-placing process — never lose count again.
- **Row & bead dual-axis counting**: Track both current row number and bead count per row simultaneously
- **Change mode**: Set initial bead count, trigger rows, bead change amount, and repeat times — get automatic prompts for increase/decrease operations
- **Stable mode**: Fixed bead count mode, ideal for regular patterns
- **Auto count**: Set a countdown interval to trigger counting automatically — hands-free operation
- **Chart sync**: When the row count changes, the chart automatically scrolls to the corresponding row — what you count is what you see
- **Operation log**: Full record of every add/subtract action, with one-tap clear
- **Vibration alerts**: Subtle phone vibration when a row goal is reached or a bead change is needed
