Does work - no sound

Liked the interface but no sound comes out so it is useless

Good app, would like more features

I’m looking for something that replaces my broken Dr. Beats. This almost fits the bill. I would like to to also count off the offbeats as well or even sixteenth notes.

Don’t buy

Don’t waste your money this app doesn’t work. It does not speak or tick. Disappointed.

iOS 12

I am a drum instructor and have enjoyed using and recommending the paid version of Beat Speak. The app worked great however it no longer functions with IOS 12 software on my iPad and iPhone. PLEASE UPGRADE the app to work with IOS 12. I miss being able to use it.

Response from developer

Please download the latest update - thanks for your support, very much appreciate it!

Useless

Bought it for the voice count but not working. Very slow tab response. Not user friendly compared to all the free ones I’ve used.
