So crucial to be able to start the metronome in time with a feel/groove that has been established especially for House of Worship scenarios. Other than that, it’s probably one of the nicest metronome apps on the App Store. Will have to stick with my other app for now. ### 5/5 — Fantastic tool that does it all *2026-08-04* Beautifully simple interface with enough power to work on more complex concepts like tuplet subdivisions, ramping/slowing tempos, accent patterns and much more. Really excellent tool. **Developer response:** Thank you for the great review. Stoked you’re digging it! ### 5/5 — End of a long search *2026-07-26* I am a pro pianist and love the app. It is a good drummer metronome on steroids. I record YouTube piano covers at scale. I love this app since I can make entire setlists and store tempo for each song. So I can practice until I am ready for recording. Only real feature I am missing hard in this app: time signatures without accent on 1. this is standard in all cheap metronomes. I guess it is called 1/4 or so. But if you have constant changes in signatures or just want to practice a single run you don’t want to wait for the 1 all the time. Can you please add this feature? Oh, and you should rename this app since it is a pro metronome for all serious musicians. Not just the small community of bassists 🫢 **Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words and suggestions. In the settings, there is a toggle to turn on/off the BEEP sound on the 1 of each bar but there does exist a slight accent on downbeats in the main metronome. I'll indeed add a toggle to turn that on/off as well (good call). FYI, I realize the BassEducation thing is misleading as all of my existing apps are instrument agnostic but this all started as a building of tools for my online education website, so I thought it best to carry the 'brand' over. Good feedback! thank you ## Frequently asked questions about BassEducation Metronome ### What is BassEducation Metronome?

Lock your phone mid-practice and the tempo holds, to the millisecond, until you stop it. ### 1.7 — 2026-08-18 Fixed • The click no longer drifts when your phone sleeps or wakes — it keeps its place instead of restarting where it left off. • Shared setlist links now open reliably, whatever screen you're on. ### 1.6 — 2026-08-12 Fixed an issue with the tempo ramp in which the ramp wouldn't always reach the final set tempo before looping. Also fixed an issue with the universal share links for custom built metronome sets. ### 1.5 — 2026-07-29 New • Quarter note accent — a new switch in the menu. Off gives you a completely even pulse when no accent cells are activated; on puts a slightly different sound on the quarter-note pulses, handy for odd-meter work. • "Accent on 1" is now called "Beep on 1" — same beep, clearer name. Thanks to the reviewer who asked for this one! ### 1.3 — 2026-07-23 New
