Please add a feature that allows the counter to continually count upwards, the increase/rate can be set by the user and increase by this amount either every 24 hours or set it to increase every millisecond. ---

I agree. When I was looking for a counter for my website, and hopefully this is what I understand from this request: for example, I wanted to take a a total number on one day that the counter automatically timed the update to reflect the actual day. so let’s say we have a number 1,440. The counter would basically increment up 1 every minute. so if you go to my website at 12:00 PM, you will see a different number at 5:00 PM. ---
