Doesn’t work at all. SCAM AVOID! *2021-02-07* I simply can’t count BPM. Selects random numbers from 0 to 170bmp and changes them every 5 seconds. Total scam. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. ### 1/5 — How do you get you money back *2021-01-07* Have a metronome when you compare you will see the tap works but the listen doesn’t , I want my money back ### 1/5 — No funciona *2020-09-19* A mi no me funciona ### 1/5 — What the heck! *2020-08-23* I just downloaded this app hoping it could listen to a song and determine the BPM. Not even close! It’s constantly all over the place during playback of a song even with a solid constant tempo of a slow song that I know the tempo, Beatles-Something with a BPM of 66 just to test this app. The app came up with 132. I’m a dummy for paying extra for the full app. Honestly that’s like stealing my hard earned money. I’d really prefer a refund. That’s just not right! Come on guys what’s up with that? Unless someone can explain to me Im missing something? ### 1/5 — Tap Function Works But That’s About It *2020-08-16* Import function does not work. Microphone detection is completely off. Wish I would have save my $1.99. ### 1/5 — Useless *2020-06-25, version 1.0* Completely ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2020-04-11* Not picking up anything, yes I enabled my microphone. Please refund. ### 1/5 — Junk *2020-04-09* Doesn’t do anything unless you purchase ### 1/5 — Beware *2020-01-12* Restore purchases does not work and takes you to purchase it again !!!! ### 1/5 — Demo worthless *2019-08-25* 2.40 € for features that other mightier Apps do for FREE? ### 1/5 — Cannot listen to songs being played on the phone *2019-07-20* I paid for this thinking I could analyze songs while they are playing from my phone/device (like Shazam) but it does not work. Don’t waste your money. ### 1/5 — Only analyzes one song at a time! *2018-10-03* Despite selecting a playlist or an album, it will only let you select one song at a time! It will not let you select an entire album or playlist and identify each bpm automatically. Who has the time to individually id & tag each song separately? ### 1/5 — You’d be better off pulling random numbers out of hat. *2018-08-17* This app is pretty poor at counting bpm tbh. I can tap bpm in on other apps and get it bang on, this things all over the place when tapping and even more so when it listens and does it for you , if it shows me 116.80 bpm for tunes I know are running at 175 bpm once more I will probably smash something to pieces. Don’t waste your time with it. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Inutilisable *2026-08-03* Change de tempo et de tuning à chaque mesure, ne sait distinguer les temps fort… c est nul ### 1/5 — Mic doesn’t work *2024-09-05* Bought the app. Mic doesn’t listen. ### 1/5 — useless *2023-09-07, version 1.0* you have to tap tempo the screen for the BPM, completely useless!! They ask premium payment for such a basic banal feature! This thing is not worth your time of downloading ### 1/5 — Terrible *2023-05-07* I know it’s only $2 but this app is useless. When you tap in it the music playing stops and I think it’s working but there’s no way to know. When you import songs they don’t play out loud so you don’t know if it’s really playing the song you chose or not. Dumb. ### 1/5 — Suckkkkks *2022-03-07* Do not buy this or upgrade. It SUCKED!!!!!! Could not find the bpm! I want my money back!!! ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time or money *2022-02-17* App doesn’t even work, gives you a random bpm each time ### 1/5 — Terrible app. Doesn’t work. *2021-08-19* This gives the wrong BPM every time. Even on simple beats. RIP-OFF!! ### 1/5 — Horrible *2021-07-13* I paid $1.99 to try the BPM analyzer feature using the microphone. I tested it on several house/techno tracks in the 124-130 BPM range with a very steady, 4-on-the-floor kick. The app showed the BPM all over the place, nowhere near the correct BPM. Waste of money. ### 1/5 — Bummer *2021-06-13* Doesn’t work as advertised, or at all really. Save your money ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money. *2021-02-25* This does not work properly. I emailed Elliott Garage over two weeks ago to try to get further instructions or a fix. I haven’t even had a response. Definitely fraudulent. ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Недоступно восстановление покупки. *2023-08-24* Был вынужден временно сгрузить это приложение, однако после новой загрузки не восстанавливается сделанная ранее покупка. При нажатии соответствующей кнопки происходит переход в меню, предлагающее купить приложение ещё раз. Указанная проблема стала причиной низкой оценки. После устранения неисправности оценка будет пересмотрена. ### 5/5 — Enfin ! *2023-03-13* Enfin un bpm analyseur qui fonctionne avec les fichiers audio présents sur l'ipad (même en version gratuite !) En tap tempo y en a un paquet or celui-ci ouvre aussi les fichiers qui ne sont pas forcément et uniquement dans Musique. Un graal pour trouver le bpm en quelques secondes. La précision est bonne, rarement plus d'un battement d'écart avec ce que j'avais trouvé avec la mėthode classique du tap tempo. ### 3/5 — Impossible de tester le micro sans payer🥴☹️ *2019-12-31* L’appli semble bien, malheureusement elle n’est pas gratuite, pour l’utiliser depuis le micro il faut payer 2,29€...et pas précisé dans la description, dommage... Si c’est pour utiliser avec vos musiques enregistrées (fonction import) alors là pas de pb, ça fonctionne très bien! 😉 Mais c’est l’autre fonction (micro) que je cherche... ### 2/5 — Doesn’t work *2020-07-05* It recognizes the BPM when you tap the screen, but I was hoping that it would calculate the BPM for imported songs from Apple Music. After I select a song it shows a ripple effect as if it is working, but no BPM ever shows up. I’m guessing this used to work when the app was first created, but was broken when APIs changed. Oh well. ### 2/5 — Dont Upgrade from LE version! *2019-12-08* At first: it is NOT possible to analyze music with the mic as the description is telling you. This is a lie! This only works in the pro version. When loading music from your iPhone the app crashes (also tried iPad- same thing). Further, I can not recommend to upgrade from LE version to pro version. If you do so you will not be able to use the app on your other apple devices. You will be asked to upgrade again and pay again (restore purchase is not working!). If you decide to use the pro version then install the pro version directly in the App Store. The bpm feature is not really working with the mic (maybe better with simple 4tothefloor songs). The chords analyzer is moderate. Not very fast (skips many chords) and not to good in guessing the right chord. Anyway, for the price the tool is a good help in finding chords with the mic.... --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
