Some like to count their dhikr far beyond the basic 33 tasbeeh after prayer. There are 80 blessings on the prophet on Friday, and 100 "
La Ilaha Illa Allah WaHHdahu la shareeka lah, lahul-molk walahul-hamd, yoHHyee wayomeet wahowa AAala kollee shay'en Qadeer" in any given day. They can also divide the dhikr across several sessions, and make personal targets for high numbers of dhikr. So even without innovation there could be a use for it.
But of course the sunnah is definitely to count on the fingers, and it is indeed better to do so, as Allah will also make them speak on Judgement Day and they will say how we counted dhikr on them. And showing a tool of tasbeeh or masbaHHA to impress people is of course riya' and minor shirk.
