### 1/5 — Abandonada

*2026-05-24, version 1.0*

No recibe actualizaciones

### 4/5 — Headphones support missing

*2023-09-28, version 1.0*

Hi guys,
App is very useful, even for non-musical purposes (my example - fixing the tempo of my golf swing), however one question: don't you consider support of headphones so I can get the tone directly to the ear without bothering other people around?

### 5/5 — BPM detector

*2023-05-17*

Dont work for the company who made this app so I’m no plant to boost reviews. I begrudgingly paid $1.99 for the bpm auto detect upgrade and at first i didnt think it worked until i realized i had my airpods in and it wasnt detecting anything anything in the mic. Unpaired my airpod mic and the detector worked perfectly. Definitely recommend.

### 1/5 — reconnair pas ... désolant de payer pour des prunes

*2023-04-18*

A éviter

### 5/5 — Отлично для экспериментов

*2023-04-08*

Эта штука отлично подходит для экспериментов; надёжного определение темпа конечно здесь ждать не стоит, она догадывается с трудом особенно если ты играешь полиритмы (ещё бы!); но именно с передачей пойманного темпа дальше в другие программы дальше по Ableton Link ничего подобного больше в аппсторе нет

### 1/5 — Terrible app.

*2023-02-16*

A waste of money. Inaccurate and inconsistent

### 1/5 — not yet

*2023-02-02*

terrible, has you buy before u can try bpm detect. does not detect instead it changes per phrase. garbage execution but nice idea

### 1/5 — Stay away

*2022-12-30*

Auto bpm detect is a scam

### 2/5 — Wirkt unfertig…läuft hakelig

*2022-08-08*

Zuerst was die App kann…wenn man heraus bekommen hat wie:
1. Es „tickert“ mit 4 verschiedenen Sounds
2. Man kann das Tempo tappen
3 Die Lampe / Blitz des Smartphones pulst im Takt wenn gewünscht. 
Das war es im Wesentlichen. Was die App nicht kann und deswegen ist sie für mich unbrauchbar:
1. Man muss 4 x tappen bevor eine Reaktion kommt und das muss man erst mal herausfinden. 
2. Das Ding läuft … und zwar ewig. Es gibt keinen Button um das Metronom zu stoppen. Wenn man gleichzeitig den Blitz an hat, wird man in Pausen irre…
Und jedes Mal die App abschiessen und neu starten kann dich eigentlich nicht die Absicht des Entwicklers sein!?
Das Ding wirkt wie nicht zu Ende gedacht…

### 1/5 — İts not Bpm

*2022-07-30, version 1.0*

This is not fuxking Bpm
