### 4/5 — Excellent

*2013-08-31, version 4.3*

A very good app with excellent programmable features. BUT when it crashes (which it does!) the favourites are erased. Also tried deleting a compas just now and the entire library of rhythms was erased!

### 4/5 — Merece la pena tenerlo

*2013-08-15, version 4.3*

Muy bueno lo recomiendo para todos .

### 3/5 — Beat vibe

*2012-12-05*

Cool app like the online stuff too

### 3/5 — Agc

*2012-11-11, version 4.2.1*

Esta bien pero le faltan mejoras.

### 3/5 — Regular

*2012-11-03, version 4.2*

A mi me sirve aunque es algo limitado y monótono de sonidos... Se puede mejorar.

### 5/5 — Best Flamenco Metronome

*2012-07-13*

The third one I've tried. Wish it was the first. Way more features and flexibility. Love it!

### 5/5 — Gutes Flamenco-Metronom

*2012-04-05, version 4.0.6*

Ich verwende dieses App als Flamenco-Metronom beim üben der Flamenco Gitarre und bin sehr zufrieden.

Ein Higlight ist, dass man sich die Palos selct erstellen kann.

### 5/5 — EVERY RHYTHM IS NOW POSSIBLE WITH THIS APP.

*2012-02-11, version 4.0.6*

This is an amazing drum app and just goes further than all the rest. The accuracy of each beat is astounding, there isn't a rhythm this app can't deal with. If you need drum beats in strange time signatures or just want your beats to sound real and not mechanical, then this app allows you the greatest of options, there are no limits. It's also very easy to use and isn't limited by music style, it really can do it all, and all on your iPhone, it's hard to believe. This has all the capabilities of the iPad version, but make sure you get the iPad one if you're using an iPad because each device is unique. Don't forget that this app can reproduce Flamenco rhythms, but it makes good dance beats too.

### 5/5 — Otimo!!

*2012-01-14*

Muito bom o aplicativo, o som é muito legal, exelente para estudos e acompanhamentos, deixa para traz e muito os metronomos da Apple Store.

### 5/5 — 重宝してます♪

*2011-12-06*

オスカル・エレーロのフラメンコ・メトロノームも持ってますがこれDLしてから全く使わなくなりました^^; 手軽で便利ですよね。

### 5/5 — Beatvibe

*2011-05-10, version 4.0.5*

Easy to programme. Great sounds. All flamenco palos plus more. Great app. Much easier than oscar herroro metronome to acess at a fraction of the price. Highly recomend.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2011-02-17, version 3.3.2*

This is a fantastic app and a must buy for any budding flamenco guitarist. The metronome works perfectly with no glitches at all. The same can't be said for some other- and more expensive software that I have tried. You can choose where to insert accents, what type of sound you want ie palmas or cajon.You even get Oles and other jaleo to accompany your playing. The only disappointment for me is that with my iPod touch I don't get the vibrations as it doesn't have a vibrating motor. However the sounds and the visual prompt of the clock are all you need to keep you in compass. Superb!

### 1/5 — Useless now

*2026-02-02*

This was my go to app for flamenco practice. I bought the full version years ago. Now, the full version became the free version and it’s not working anymore. Also, the “free” version, after update, is so bad that there’s no incentive to re-purchase it. So disappointing!

### 1/5 — Steer clear

*2015-04-07, version 4.4.0*

The beats werent really as realistic as advertised, the app in generally is quite messy and disorganised, turned the help off button and still get a whole bunch of little yellow pop up bubbles teaching me what is what over and over again everytime i use the app. In general was expecting more for the price tag, steer clear

### 1/5 — Que ha pasado

*2015-02-15, version 4.4.0*

T gastas hace unos años 11 euros y de repente ya no sirve la app? El desarrollador desaparece? En ios 8 no funciona? De verdad, esto deberia estar prohibido y multado

### 1/5 — ¿Compatible con ipad?

*2013-11-09, version 4.4.0*

¿por qué dice que lo es si no lo puedo instalar en mi ipad? No aparece en las apps compatibles con ipad. Eso es publicidad engañosa, sobre todo cuando has pagado, como yo, un precio no bajo

### 1/5 — Devolver el dinero

*2012-03-06, version 4.0.6*

Hola no me gusta nada la aplicación me devolvéis el dinero? Eso de comprar sin probarlo antes.

### 1/5 — Cumbersome

*2010-09-26, version 0*

This method of programming beats will test your patience. This application is overpriced.

### 1/5 — garbage

*2009-03-07*

I had great expectations here but so far the only sound Im getting is an annoying vibrate, no palmas, drums or other 25 sounds promised.  Also the vibration is not in beat with the clock!.  Last the slider to increase tempo does not work.  I am waiting a response from Tiv studios for a fix but right at this moment I feel like I just threw 10 bucks out of the window.

### 2/5 — App is Broken

*2015-07-11*

In iOS 8.4 the App has no audio and displays the error "Audiobus initialization problem" on launch.

### 2/5 — Buggy User Interface

*2014-07-03, version 4.4.0*

This app needs some work on the UI, lots of glitches happening, often crashes and quits automatically while editing. Too much for the price! The rhythm editor also needs more UI work to be efficient. This app could be really good but please, fix the bugs guys.

### 2/5 — This app should be universal!!!!!

*2011-04-28, version 4.0.5*

At this price this app really should be universal. Many devs have done it. Hope you'll get there eventually.

### 5/5 — 家での練習に最適

*2021-10-19*

重宝しています。シンプルな操作性でありながら、速さを感覚的に自由に変えられるので良いです。今までDr.コンパスを始め何種類かのアプリを試しましたがこちらの方が使いやすく実用的だと思いました

### 5/5 — Toll!!

*2021-01-01, version 4.4.3*

ein kleines, sehr feines Metronome für Flamencogitarristen. Ich bin hochzufrieden....

### 5/5 — Compas training

*2019-12-07*

The biggest reason why I love this app is because i can visualize the timing and anticipate the accents (3,6,8,10,12) This app while simple but very easy to use has helped me get my Flamenco up to speed and hopefully synchronized with other Flamenco players from Spain.

### 5/5 — Ole!

*2019-12-04, version 4.4.3*

Hmm... surprised to see so very few reviews here for this little gem.

Anyway this app is great value as a study aid for flamenco guitar (not least since its leading competitor on PC retails for several hundred bucks!)

You can choose from a wide range of preset rhythms: From simple 4/4 cycles to complex asymmetric flamenco compasses. Or else just tailor-make your own versions.. Also very good for setting up rhythm exercises to hone your techniques on.

Nice authentic-sounding flamenco percussion audio to choose from (quite varied palmas, cajon, castanet sounds etc.)

The main downside is the editing UI can get a little buggy -  so sometimes awkward to label new files. 

Still, excellent value!

### 5/5 — Practice anywhere

*2019-07-05*

This app makes it easy to practice anywhere. The audio is good. And it is very easy to use.

### 5/5 — Good

*2019-01-21, version 4.4.3*

Good simple good interface keep the good work!

### 5/5 — A great app!

*2016-08-31*

普段はIAAに対応したiPad版を使うことが多いですが、このiPhone版はフラメンコメトロノームのパイオニア的存在で気に入っています（ただしIAAやAudiobusには未対応）。

### 5/5 — Muy bueno

*2013-03-24, version 4.2.1*

Me ayuda mucho a llevar el compás, de los diferentes palos del flamenco.
 Enhorabuena.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2012-11-22*

This is a very useful tool for flamenco guitar students. I find the clock representation to be helpful when trying to learn tricky rhythms. By visualizing where what I am playing falls around the accents I can transition quickly to feeling where things should go by listening. It's a relatively expensive app, but for me it's been totally worth it.

### 5/5 — 便利です

*2012-10-29*

何時でも、どこでも使え、とても良い！
