### 4/5 — Great functionality but UI could be better

*2013-07-10, version 2.7.1*

Not the best looking and a little fiddly, but excellent fuctionality for practicing intricate stuff

### 3/5 — PLEASE IMPROVE/UPDATE GRAPHICS!

*2013-06-20*

This $5 app needs to look the part. We all have shiny, beautiful devices and I for one actually care how the app looks.. I use this app a lot and it would help to have something nice to look at. The features are great but it's kind of a downer that this app looks very D.I.Y. and unprofessional.

### 2/5 — Very confusing app

*2012-08-14, version 2.6.1*

Not user friendly at all.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2012-07-23, version 2.6.1*

I use this for my personal use as well as teaching my guitar students. The tap feature is great, I loved how I can customize the sound (woodblock!!) and it's dead on accurate. Great, functional metronome!

### 5/5 — Best Metronome Ever!

*2012-07-20, version 2.6.1*

You won't find a better product on the App. store. Stop looking and download the product. Works flawlessly!

### 5/5 — The best.

*2012-07-07, version 2.6.1*

Simply the best metronome I could find. It's very loud, and it's incredibly easy to control and understand. It has more features than I'll ever need, but I'll take that over missing features any day.

### 5/5 — Exactly what I wanted

*2012-06-26, version 2.6.1*

The app works exactly as I need it to. I love all the functions it has and because I take my iPod everywhere I always have it to help me practice now, even in my lessons with my teacher, who also loves the app :)

### 5/5 — Dis Met

*2012-06-21, version 2.6.1*

It so good it makes my butt tingle..

### 5/5 — Total adaption to the score

*2012-06-13, version 2.6.1*

The best metronome I've used. It's capable of delivering ANY slow, steady pulse!

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2012-06-05, version 2.6.1*

I enjoy the many options for different patterns.  I use this fort High School drumline.  It's been very effective.

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2012-06-02, version 2.6.1*

Fantastic app! Highly recommend this metronome to any musician, worth every penny!

### 5/5 — Best metronome app there is

*2012-05-31, version 2.6.1*

An invaluable practice tool. The ability to speed up and slow down the tempo is essential for developing accuracy at speed. I have noticed a big difference in my playing after incorporating this feature into my practice for only a few weeks.

### 5/5 — The right metronome for me

*2012-05-22*

Perfect if you want lots of features and control over them. I'm the kind of guy who wants even more features than this has, so I hope the updates keep adding them.

If you prefer simplicity, this ain't your metronome. An analogy: it's the metronome equivalent of Finale notation software.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — App was great before iOS 11 and 64-bit apps

*2019-12-13*

This app was great and easy to use for creating sequences before iOS 11. The app temporarily didn’t work when iOS 11 began running 64-bit apps. The developer eventually updated the app, but it doesn’t work the same anymore. I wish there was a website or video with directions for creating sequences with multiple meters. The developer needs to release a page with detailed instructions with the latest updates for creating more complicated sequences. You’re better off looking for another app for creating rhythms and extended metronomes with meter changes for practicing.

**Developer response:** Hi,

Thanks for your review. The website now contains tutorial videos and a downloadable pdf user manual.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work, no support, con

*2019-07-22, version 3.0.1*

No support (developer website is dead). Makes hideous electronic squeals and awful digital drones. Clicks don’t work. No instructions. Total con. Thanks for nothing. How about my money back, Apple?

### 1/5 — Really poor documentation

*2018-11-19*

There is none that I can find. App lets one put any number of note values in a bar, so what sense is it to have meter? I see no way to make a simple thing like a triplet. Do not purchase this app.

**Developer response:** I know this reply is incredibly late, but if you still wish to have a go at Metron, you can contact us through email and will be more than happy to guide you through and explain its features.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2018-01-16*

“Extensive tutorials” don’t seem to exist. App crashes every few times you interact with it. Do not recommend.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2013-12-08, version 2.7.1*

On iPhone 4 iOS 6 or iPad 2 iOS 7.  Eg in sequencer a bar of 6/8 leaves grey quavers that stuff the bar too full.

### 1/5 — 환불 부탁드립니다

*2013-06-08*

무료라고 표시 되어있어는데 아니네요 환불 부탁드립니다

### 1/5 — Crash and Burn

*2013-02-19*

The app keeps crashing every time I try to use it. There's nothing to review or say about it because I can't use it even though I paid for it.

### 1/5 — Awkward as All Get Out

*2011-04-07, version 2.1*

Nigh impossible to configure the way I want it. E.g., can't figure out WHY those stupid 'dot beats' are inserted at the end of each bar/phrase. Let alone HOW to get them the heck out of there.

### 1/5 — Don't buy this app!

*2010-08-16*

It is very difficult to figure out how to get the app  to work because the directions are impenetrable, for starters. After messing around with it for a couple weeks here and there, I was finally able to program a 6/4-5/4 pattern into the thing. Or so I thought. As I pressed the play button, the screen went blank, and the app froze. Now, I tap on the app, I get a blank metron screen, and then back to the home screen after a few seconds.  I wrote the company two weeks ago and they did not respond. I'm deleting the app after I finish this review.  

I would recommend frozen ape tempo 2. It will do mixed meters and is reasonably easy to figure out how to use.

### 1/5 — As unintuitive as can be

*2010-06-06, version 0*

I hate this app. I'm sitting here feeling like I have to learn a new programming language.  All I want to do is set up a bar of beats with audible subdivisions, but it beats me how to do it, even after consulting the user guide.
  I definitely should have chosen the other app I was considering (and now will have effectively paid more for once I buy it, as I will never use this present app.)

### 5/5 — Issue fixed!

*2026-07-29*

Many thanks to the developer! Very responsive, and fixed the problem in an update.

### 5/5 — Update: Downgrade issue fixed

*2026-07-29*

Previously gave the app three stars because the update/redesign resulted in not being able to restore the previous purchase. They fixed this in the latest update, and all is well now—thanks!!

**Developer response:** Dear AMsonIII,

That is not supposed to happen. Seems like you’ve hit a bug. Please contact us directly at info@sintraworks.com. We will try to resolve this for you a.s.a.p.

### 5/5 — Serious tool

*2022-07-21, version 3.3*

The polyrhythm features in this app are amazing. No other metronome comes close

### 5/5 — Great App for the Marching Arts!!

*2014-08-01*

This app is great for programming tempo changes, accelerandos, ritardandos, and other tempi modifications. I made a sequence for every rehearsal section. Wonderful for consistent practice. Little buggy at times but, if your a music professional this is a MUST HAVE!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2013-04-14*

Great app to have on the phone.  No need to carry a separate metronome.

### 5/5 — My favorite metronome

*2013-04-06*

I love that it goes down to 1bpm. Very flexible, love it

### 5/5 — Great product!

*2013-01-27, version 2.7.1*

I'm a music student and I use this app everyday. I really like the different sounds that are available and the fact they can go loud enough to be heard even in chamber ensemble rehearsals.

### 5/5 — Great metronome

*2013-01-08*

I love this metronome. 
So the the best metronome app I've used!
Thanks!

### 5/5 — Great

*2012-08-07, version 2.6.1*

I love it. It's got the right pitch and everything. I use it everyday for practice.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2012-08-04, version 2.6.1*

This app is amazing.  Using the custom function I was able to put In a score for a ridiculously complex work, add accelerandos and ritards.  As a professional musician I highly recommend it.
