### 2/5 — Password doesn’t work on phone app

*2024-11-11*

I think the concept is great, but to register, I needed to go to my laptop. When I tried to login on my phone, I couldn’t because,for some reason, the same password is now incorrect. Glitches like these need to be worked out in order for this app to be useful in the world of marching band/concert band. I can’t always have my laptop available during every rehearsal. I need the flexibility of using my phone or iPad.

**Developer response:** Hey there - so sorry for the trouble! Your password should be working across devices (though please note you can only log into one device at a time), so you can use your phone or iPad in rehearsals. Please shoot us an email at hello@dropspin.io so we can get this worked out for you. We're happy to help!

### 3/5 — Lack of Time Signatures

*2026-07-10*

The lack of ability to enter time signatures means that everything is just quarter notes and divisions.  So, 7/8 divided 3/2/2 or 2/2/3 is not supported.  Pro metronome has more features along with te ability to do this is set lists, but not as good audio.  If DropSpin upgrades their time signature options rather than just “number of beats” this would become a go to rehearsal tool.

**Developer response:** Hey, thanks so much for the feedback. 

In regular metronome mode, we keep everything simple: Beat speed at ×/4, loop count, beat mask. If you want it to sound like "7/8 at 140," you'd need to set your click speed to 280. The easiest way is to press and hold the BPM selector, and type in your desired tempo.

But, DropSpin Metronome is really designed to be used as a player companion with our online admin platform. In the admin app you can create or manage groups, drag and drop scores, or even program complex time signatures from scratch. DropSpin currently supports 1/1 all the way up to 16/32. And, you can share any created click tracks via magic link for others to use as well. The admin app is where you'd put together set lists, and manage who has access to them. You can access the admin app here: https://app.dropspin.io

Once the click tracks are created, open them inside of the DropSpin Metronome app, and you'll see all of your time signatures, as well as have the ability to set start/stop points, play back items on a loop... and much more!

### 5/5 — This is so good and helped me

*2026-08-07*

This app saved me from being a pathetic useless garbage worm and helped me play like the ultimate sigma alpha I really am.

### 5/5 — Great met!

*2025-03-21*

It’s intuitive, simple, and has been a great change from a typical met or alternative apps. Love it!

### 5/5 — Just what we needed!

*2025-03-19*

We use DropSpin for marching band and winter percussion at the high school I direct. We love the feature set, and the customer service has been exceptional. Any problems we have had were promptly addressed, and I'm confident that dropSpin will just keep getting better and better.

### 5/5 — Revolutionary

*2025-02-07*

There are no other metronomes that do what DropSpin does - rehearsal analytics, sharing capabilities, drag and drop to upload…people are sleeping on this.

### 5/5 — Not opening :(

*2024-01-04*

New update not allowing the app to open on an iPhone 6s Plus

**Developer response:** Oh no! Can you please send us a screenshot of what the app looks like when you try to open it? You can send it to us at support@dropspin.io and we will be happy to help you solve this problem!

### 5/5 — Saving Metronome Tempos

*2023-12-15*

It'd be great if we had the ability to save custom metronome tempos so that we don't have to manually keep changing the tempo every time we open the app. A "memory" option like the DB-90 has would be incredible, so we can switch to our custom metronome tempos with ease.

 Also, it'd be very nice if we were able to access this while putting the phone to sleep to save a little battery. Overall, fantastic app!

**Developer response:** Hey, thanks so much for the feedback! That makes sense. You can always 'save' your preferences for a specific score or one that you build yourself by using score mode. To upload a score, you'll need to log in on the desktop app. If you'd like further assistance our team would be happy to chat with you, just sent us a note at hello@dropspin.io.

### 5/5 — Amazing, but i have one major complaint

*2023-12-01*

The met doesn’t play in background, meaning i can’t turn my phone off and have the met go at the same time. That’s a huge turn off for me but other than that I love the app’s freedom and simplicity.

**Developer response:** Hey there, thanks so much for the review! We've just released an update that allows the sound to run in the background, so your problem should be solved :)

### 5/5 — Perfect for getting all the details incorporated.

*2023-08-10*

User friendly!

### 5/5 — Love the app but would suggest a few changes

*2023-08-09*

Make it so the you can custom add subdivisions for up to 8 bars instead of 4

**Developer response:** Hey there, thanks for the review! While this feature isn't available yet, you can always customize 8 bars (or more, or less!) in score mode. Upload and edit your score and subdivisions on the desktop app (app.dropspin.io). If you need further assistance, please contact our team at hello@dropspin.io. We're here!
