Simple
Simple, no frills. I get to focus more on my technique, power and efficiency and not get distracted by “busy” apps. Great product.
Just what I was after
It's good to see exactly how I should be rowing in the stick figure during each stroke. Would be nice to be able too pre-set a full warm up, row and cool down cycle with different rates and durations rather than trying to adjust during the exercise. But I'll certainty keep using this.
Pretty good
Thanks for the free app
Just in case you have an interest in improvements,
The app seems to freeze/stop working when there is a phone call.
The rowing man should fill the screen in any orientation.
Tooltips for what all the settings do would be nice.

Best APP!
Very precise and accurate.
Easy to use.
Supports split screen so listen to whatever music you want while using the app.

Great for ERG
I love using this on the ERG to help me stick to the right pace. Would love the ability to turn down the volume of the tone, as it overpowers my music in my headphones.
Stick Man!
The stick figure not only helped me keep my pace, but helped me keep my proper form, even when tired.
Great value
I’d pay extra to customize tone so it would blend with my music better. Thank you
Due for an update
The app has recently become buggy when connecting to airpods, so basically unusable in the gym, sadly.
Also, if the devs added the option of saving timed workouts and intervals (for example, a workout that is 5mins at 16spm, then 5mins 20spm, etc.), it would be so much more valuable and I’m sure could attract more people willing to splash the £££.

Sometimes simplest is the best
This is a perfect complement to any training routine. Helps you internalize timing and drive/recovery ratios.
A simple thing done pedfectly
well, at least approximately, like rowing itself.
Wish I’d found this sooner!
What a first class app. Simple, intuitive, and backed with solid explanations on the important stuff. I also really like the developer’s non-intrusive approach against data collection, rare for a top flight, highly useful free app.
Superb.
Superb.
Timing is great
Timing is great. Just need programmes of alternating times of period of workout
Simple. Helpful.
Provides focus
The perfect app
Metrownome is legitimately useful, well designed, free, and even has a clever name. Heartily recommended for all rowers. Thank you!
Decent
The app does what it claims and is decent for keeping SR. However, I use this on an erg and would love the ability to let it play in the background after leaving the app
Perfect trainer
There are tons of apps that “teach” you how to row, but this is the simplest, easiest and best way I’ve found to focus only on SPM. The stick figure is a good guide but the beeps make it super easy to time the drive correctly which allows you to focus more on breathing and technique while you keep a consistent pace. Oh, and it’s free.

Excellent app for beginner
Really useful app for a beginner like me. A companion app for Apple watch would be great!
Wonderful!
Simple and to the point. When rowing you need to focus on two things: shape and rhythm. The little stick person in the app animation just guides you to do that efficiently and without charging a subscription. Wishlist: allow to program changes in stokes per minute to do sprints/varied workouts.
Love it
Been looking for a straight to the point rowing metronome and this fit the bill. Power strokes at 20 spm at 1 to 2 ratio is a killer . Download this metronome as this is for rowing as opposed to music.
Nicely basic
This was a wonderful app to use having a very simple layout and graphic. Just a profile stick figure makes it easy to see just what to do, when. The tone was unobtrusive and easy to follow. My only reason for giving 4 instead of 5 stars is it seems to only allow even stroke rates, but that’s minor (and perhaps I missed an option).
