  • None other

    I’ve had this app for years but recently my phone got water damage and upon restoring my phone, this app hadn’t downloaded because “it was no longer available”. After searching for weeks trying to find a met with similar qualities I almost cried because there’s just nothing like this one. I happened to just check this app again and it was downloaded! Maybe it was a fluke because I was on a road trip but I will never be more thankful for this app! Next best thing to Dr. Beat

  • Works great for me and for my entire school at Alexandrova School of Music!

    I highly recommend this app! Free, reliable, attractive, very accessible and always there for me :) sometimes kids just dislike using metronomes and make them disappear- not with this one! Everyone has a phone or iPad and that makes it always handy. I use it for my own personal practice and also for my teachings. I recommend it to all my clients. Love it! I readily wrote a review but this app is just amazing and had to be done!
    Thank you to the developers <3

  • I don’t 5 Star often.

    This app deserves it because it’s everything a metronome should be! And then some. I love how easy it is to pick your tempo and go. Getting used to the settings is the only thing I found a little confusing, but I persisted and think I got it. I love that it has an Automator practice mode where you can set in a starting tempo and an ending tempo and set a count of bars to repeat and speed up each go around; this makes memorizing music fun for me and being able to get the hard parts of black pages to effortlessly flow from my fingers without having to stop to reset the metronome is wonderful, I can keep up my momentum.
    Absolutely worth the working price!

  • Great app with great features....But...

    This app gets 2 stars from me because of what it aims to do with subdivisions and such (even though you must pay for them) without those features it would be one star. Why? Because it sells itself as a metronome. Something that keeps time...a rather important thing for all musicians. This metronome is broken and very inconsistent. Bad idea for new drummers that are working on internal time keeping ability. The metronome is as inconsistent, or more, than a brand new drummer that just started playing. I don’t know what causes this problem. The temp change is quite noticeable once you realize and pay attention to it. It drags and rushes while trying to stay where you want it. But I really just don’t even attempt to use it anymore because of this. It would otherwise be amazing and I’ll change the rating when it gets fixed.

  • Good but there’s a big bug

    It does almost everything you want it to but there’s a major bug. The time signature doesn’t work. Changing the note doesn’t actually change. Playing in 4/4 will give you 4 quarter notes as to be expected. However playing in 8/8 changes nothing except visually. It will just give you 8 quarter notes. Essentially doubling the time before you see and hear the measure start over again rather. It should take the same amount of time for the measure to repeat but it should be played in 8th notes. This becomes troublesome when you want to play in odd time signatures like 7/8. You don’t see or hear 7 8th notes being played. You will instead just get 7 quarter notes.

  • Tap tempo is all over the place, won’t use again.

    I’ve been a Music producer for 10+ years. When someone sends me reference tracks I like to know the tempo. Whenever I get a new iPhone and need to know the tempo of a track on the go, I head to the App Store and type in tempo... I saw good reviews so I downloaded and tried to tap the tempo of the record. It was surprisingly annoying jumping up and down 10-15bpm around the tempo I’m trying to find. Very inconsistent with accurate tempos.. it took multiple tries tapping many times to get within a wide range of tempos, then I’d have to guess until I find the right tempo. Waste of time for someone who’s trying to use a reliable tempo tap. By the way, I’m an extremely experienced tapper and can keep pretty much perfect time, so there is no excuse for this tempo tap to be all over the place lol... sorry guys. Let me know if you guys update the tempo section of the app and I’ll test it for you!!

  • Dude, This Is Good Stuff Right Here

    Honestly, if you’re a musician look to expand your knowledge of timing and rhythm this is perfect.

    I’m currently forming an understanding of polyrhythms with drumming and piano. The polyrhythm feature allows you to hear, and see, both rhythms simultaneously played, making the learning process intuitive and simple.

    However, if you don’t have some understanding of basic theory and time signatures it can be, at first, a little confusing. Other than that, I highly recommend this app for anyone, regardless of their level of knowledge.

  • Music teacher likes

    I teach guitar/voice to kids in an after school Academy. I switched to this app two months ago and I love it! I make all my students get this app. It's beautiful, the interface is easy and there's so much control. I can change the sounds, change the beat block etc. But my fav part: a one button click that adds sub beats.

    I also play guitar professionally so I practice my speed picking on the regular. I'll try a hard lick real slow, and then with one tap (while my fingers are all warmed up) it basically doubled my tempo by adding the 8th note sub divisions.

    I can also easily change it to triplets which has been a feature that's hard to find on other apps. Great metronome. I'm very pleased.

  • Needs Update For Apple Watch 3!!

    I swear by this app more than other metronome apps. I did get the full Pro version and I have been satisfied with it. Just got an Apple Watch 3 (my first Apple Watch) and I notice a decent amount of bugs. The sound sometimes plays from the watch but mostly just starts clicking on my phone. The pre-programmed songs I made only sometimes work. And I think there desperately needs to be settings function on the watch so you can turn the sound off and have it vibrate instead. I’m a music teacher and it would be extremely convenient to have that as feature to subtly check tempo before starting a song in the middle of a performance. Hope this brings these issues to the light for everyone and hope we can get an update because I really do enjoy this app!

  • Absolutely Amazing

    I've just downloaded this amazing app... and it's amazing. I think I said that too many times now. But seriously, it has all the features that a metronome should have. You can change the accents of the beats to match the piece that you are playing the metronome to, you can change the time signature freely... and the best part about this app is that none of it is blocked off for users to purchase if they wanted to use that feature.

    This app really helped me focus on practicing on my flute, and I would highly recommend it to everyone else as well.
