### 5/5 — Second review

*2026-04-30*

This is NOT for salsa dancers who want to match their timing to the music. But it’s a decent music timer and the creator is very responsive to questions

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2012-07-30*

Don't get this app it does't work. Just a useless app. Would not recommend to anyone. I even bought the 4.99 one and still doesn't work :/ What a waste of time and money.

### 5/5 — Amazing
