Example app would show how many people are viewing this page live- now. And numebr increases or decreases accordingly.  
eg "28 people loookign at this page now "

I am looking for such an app everywhere. 😄

Hi there, @john_poulianakis 👋

The info about the visitors is updated every 24 hours in our Visitor Counter app, but we agree that it would be cool to have live statistics available.

If this idea gets more votes, we’ll try to think about this opportunity 🙂

In case, you don’t need the real live statistics, but would like to manually set the needed numbers, our [Number Counter](https://elfsight.com/number-counter-widget/) app should work for you.

Feel free to check it out 😉

Hi Max  
Thanks for reply.  
This type of counter is also the foundation of the “buyers looking at this page app” we find in many commercial environments. So it would be useful for commercial customers. Most of these things seem to be opened or borrowed by shopify. eg pic

I need one quite badly at the moment.  
I dont know if these take long to develop or if it is an expensive procedure -

Thank you

To be honest, the chances for this release in the near future are not so high. However, if more users upvote this idea, we’ll try to think it over 🙂

please make it so it is actively counting who is on your site, so you can see if people enjoy it or not
