Take A Number Counter (like at a deli) - Now Serving #

We'd like to use our display similarly to how a deli uses a Take-A-Number display. We serve guests one at a time at a monthly event and would like to be able to display #1, and then count up to "now serving #2" and so on, until all our guests are served.  Any ideas on how to do this?

    Push button on the GPIO port that increments a variable (that displays in a Live Text object on the display) that counts up 1 each time.

     

    Or instead of a GPIO button you could use an app on an Android phone to send a UDP command that increments the variable.  "WiFi TCP/UDP Controller" work for sending UDP.  Your phone and player must be on the same subnet.
