### 3/5 — 无语

*2025-05-03*

14拍的重音无法去除

### 2/5 — Ads

*2024-01-26*

I like the app but there are ads that play randomly

### 4/5 — Does the job

*2023-12-10*

Does the job, just very annoying interrupting publicities on the free version

### 4/5 — Great

*2023-12-08, version 1.10.1*

Just downloaded it. I love that you can use a custom timing. It’s a bit hard to change the tempo as you can only go one by one or on the slider. I was also hoping for some more options for the sound. Overall it gets the job done

### 3/5 — Missing potential in UI

*2023-10-11*

Why not make those nice bars amp faders so you can easily create more complex accents.

### 5/5 — Brilliant - but…..  maybe one thing missing?

*2022-09-01*

This is a great product, really helps having a visual aid especially on loud stages etc.

One addition might be useful.. possible to add a folder section so that set lists can be saved and tempos for each song load up as and when required? I feel like this would be a huge benefit.

### 1/5 — 全面広告はひどい

*2025-11-28*

メトロノームは楽器練習中にさっと出してぱっと使いたいもの。場合によっては急いで始めたい場面もあるでしょう。ここに全面広告を出してしまうセンスはいかがなものか。

### 1/5 — Used to be good

*2024-06-19*

Now’ve they loaded it up with trackers and insist on you enabling them to get the basic functionality. Deleted. Plenty of other options out there.

### 1/5 — Skip this one

*2024-04-11*

All available metronome sounds have pitch which makes it useless for any instrument except drum set, and even then there are better metronomes such as polynome, time trainer etc.

### 1/5 — Too Many Ads

*2024-03-12*

The app is okay but I get ads like way to much and sometimes there is sounds to them. When I am playing a ad would randomly play.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2017-01-08*

I know this is a free app so it hasn't cost anything but I got app as I had an Apple Watch app.
Unfortunately the watch app doesn't work.

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2016-11-17, version 1.7*

Don't waste your time.

### 5/5 — It’s a metronome

### 5/5 — Does what it should do

*2022-10-22*

Does it keep time? Yes. Does it do much else? No. Is it exactly what a metronome program should be? All signs point to Yes.
