  • works exactly as advertised.

    i’m a beginner-intermediate guitarist. i know my pentatonics and handful of punk songs. now that you know my skill level, let’s get into the review.

    this is perfect. you can set the time signature, the click sound (or haptic if you prefer that), how many clicks per beat, and the color for up- and down-beats separately. it also works seamlessly whether or not you have the app open.

    i can connect my phone to my amp, start Pulse, pull up a tab in ultimate guitar, and have the metronome sound coming out of my amp speakers the whole time i’m practicing the song.

    also good if you’re trying to figure out something by ear. if you tap your screen in time with the kick drum, Pulse will set the metronome to that tempo, so once you figure out the notes you have the speed reference w/o hearing the rest of the band.

    bottom line: i would absolutely recommend this app.

  • Best metronome!

    I’ve probably tried every metronome online and this one is by far the best. It’s really customizable and you can have sounds, or have your phone “vibrate” (unlike a text) with the beat. You can also tap to find a beat which is really nice to tell what tempo you are at. Works even with your phone off and it’s my favourite metronome even more than a real metronome. Goes up to 300bpm so unless you’re crazy fast, this one will do.

  • What a great app 😁!!!

    What a great app! I love this app and it is such a great use the personalization and different options for tempo time signature and even click sounds along with the colors. It is truly one of the best metronomes to use and I’ve always had a hard time finding a good one! I highly recommend you use this app

  • Excellent!!

    Truly amazing app for free!! Looks great and works great. Includes tap tempo. The meter and subdivision options give me everything I need. Sincere thank you to the developer.
  • Apple 4

    The haptic does not seem to work on the Apple 4 watch.
  • Watch App does not work

    The app does not keep the watch face awake so you have to keep tapping the screen to make sure it doesn’t dim. Also the taptic feedback is so insignificant you barely feel anything eventhough the watch is on your wrist.

    Such a shame. The marketing proved so much potential
  • Great app, just one issue...

    I love the app! It’s simple and easy to use. My only problem is with the playlists. We should have the ability to edit playlist titles, tempos, and time signatures after setting a playlist. The inability to do so makes it little inconvenient to quickly change tempos.

    Overall, the app makes my job as a percussion instructor a bit easier.

  • Helped me with my run

    I’ve been working on picking up my running cadence to 180 BPM. It’s hard to find the perfect music to this and with my best efforts I was at 176. First time I used Pulse I was able to hold 182. True I have to use it from my phone and not watch but still, it’s awesome and no ads. These guys who made it are tops in my book. Great application and easy to set up.

  • Great!

    I see this becoming a great metronome, just now it is amazing and really easy to use. However if you try to put in a tempo like say 100 bpm when you lift off your finger it moves to 99 bpm or so. It also isn’t clear on all the features from the beginning, maybe a small tutorial from new users would be great. I use it for percussion and will use it on piano too, works really well!
