Hi Peter, thank you for your feedback. I am sorry to hear that the price does not feel right for you. The subscription helps us keep the app up to date and maintain the music detection features which rely on ongoing server costs. We want the app to feel worth it for you. If you can tell us what you feel is missing or what we can improve, your input really helps us make the app better. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. 🙏 Kind regards, Devnex Support

not accurate

it was a free app and didnt expect much from it. I dj and the BPM was all over the place. maybe its good i dont know. after 3 tracks telling me it was at 156 then 96 and again at 122 leaves one to believe the algorithm needs attention.

Predatory pricing

I would love to pay for this app out right. No way it’s worth $5/week. There are others better.

Scam

Went through a few splash screens and then i tried to close the app by pressing home button twice, it then proceeded to scan my fingerprint and accept some terms that I didn’t even get a chance to read. Can’t clearly find the cancellation, as well.

Basic functionality

This app does what it says and nags and ads you to death until you pay the FIVE DOLLARS A WEEK subscription price.

It works! It does what it says. It is in no way worth the price, which would be $269.46 over a year. That’s just not reasonable for what it does. Hard pass.

Poor Accuracy

For the free version, all you'll get with it is the tap BPM feature. And they stick a giant add and hide the "x" to close it. It's deceptive and makes people think you have to buy the app to use any feature. Worst of all, the "tap" feature is NOT accurate. I've compared it side by side with professional music production and pro dj software and tapped at the same tempo and it's off by several (at least 6 BPM at closest) from what I've seen. Use another app or find another solution.

Aggressive upgrade ads from the start

Only detects BPM (and not that well) for free, all while plastering an upgrade ad across half the screen

“Totally free to use “

If there is a way to use this app free of charge (as advertised) I’d like to know !!

Fixes

Add a reset time setting. Add a dark icon. Change the application category to utility (I don't like that the application is next to YouTube). When you swipe applications frequently, the offer to buy a subscription pops up, which is very annoying

Only tap feature works! Don’t pay the subscription

Unless you are detecting the bpm of your top 40’s chart pop music the auto-detect feature won’t work. If you’re a DJ and you spin edits, remixes, or underground goodies, then you are better off tapping the screen, which is free!

Free version has virtually no functionality

The free version of this app has virtually no functionality; it just counts BPM that you tap out as you listen to another music source. Every other control on the app sends you too a splash screen that tries to get you to pay $3/month. Extremely deceptive.

dubious cookies

The app claims it only uses the id to track and then proceeds to ask for cookie consent for countless third parties. functionality is good, but the app will probably sell your data. There is a premium subscription for 3?/a month but i doubt that will male anything better. There is bpm - Tap Tempo Counter + Game which claims to not collect data.

Doesn’t look free to me…

$1.99 a week or $2.99 a month?! Highway robbery… Give me a week I’ll put something together…

Works, but there are better options…

This is simple BPM app, where you manually tap to the beat/song you’re detecting the BPM of.

While it works fine, it’s not what I was really looking for.

There’s other apps out there that auto-detect BPM and also give you a confidence rating if the song is detected by Shazam in the app.

Much nicer and easier.
