What's New in MagicBPM

1.4.0

August 29, 2026

The metronome keeps going when you put the phone down. And MagicBPM now speaks four more languages. • Background metronome: the click carries on when you leave the app or lock the screen. A Live Activity on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island starts it, stops it, and nudges the tempo by 1 or 5 BPM without unlocking. • Redesigned metronome screen: a bigger tap pad, with Reset and Play/Stop as real buttons pinned at the bottom instead of a swipe hint printed inside the pad. Tapping out a tempo now works while the click is running. • Four more languages: German, Japanese, Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese, alongside English. Pick yours under Language in Settings, whatever language your iPhone is set to. • Open in: choose which music app a detected song opens in, from the new Open in row in Settings. • VoiceOver no longer announces "Session reset" when a tap session simply times out. Nothing had been reset. Have an idea or hit a snag? Email support@magicbpm.com. We read everything.

User reviews

Super accurate metronome in a free app!

I've tried several metronomes, and this one stands out because the metronome is hyper-accurate. It never lags, stutters, or ticks incorrectly after running for a while.

The mic beat detection is also decent, it listens in real-time and does a really decent job analyzing the attacks to find your BPM.

And best of all, that the app is totally free. It says it is ad supported, but I haven’t seen any ads so far!

Response from developer

Thanks for this, it genuinely made our week. The metronome timing is the part we have sweated hardest, so hearing that it holds steady over long runs is the best feedback we could get. One honest correction: the app is ad supported, so ads do exist. They only appear at natural breaks, never while you are listening or the metronome is running, which is probably why you have not hit one yet. MagicBPM Pro removes them with a single one time purchase if you would rather not see any. Beat detection keeps getting better each release. If you ever hit a track it reads wrong, email support@magicbpm.com with the song name and we will look into it.
