Sochi 2014 Medal Alert
The Sochi 2014 Medal Alert app for iPhone also lets you track medal counts but is much simpler.

It works much in the same way as the Sochi 2014 Results app but with less options and a cleaner design.
If you don't need anything but alerts for medaling in your favorite events and nothing more, get the Sochi 2014 Medal Alert app.
