### 1/5 — Asked for a review

*2026-02-28*

This app sent me a notification asking me to review it despite me having the In-App Ratings & Reviews setting turned off.

Additionally, it doesn’t fill the full phone screen or render its buttons correctly.

### 5/5 — A unique way to tell the time.

*2021-10-06, version 1.0.1*

I really like this app. I like being able to know what the time is in Swatch Internet Time and I really like how it has a built in calculator that converts any time into beats. I also like how the app is completely free and doesn't have any annoying ads. It would be even better if it could also turn any time you gave it in beats into normal time.

### 5/5 — Family scattered across time zones

*2021-04-19*

With family from Europe to west coast of the US, it’s become hard to coordinate calls and family “meetings.” This app has been reliable and after getting used to the concept, much easier than thinking in UTC time.

### 3/5 — Add a world clock

*2019-07-21*

Add a world clock,so that you can reference beat time to current local times

Add an alarm function, it would be handy for arranging calls overseas.Good that it displays to a 100th of a beat

### 4/5 — Great app

*2019-03-15*

I love the widget. I’d love it even more if I could make the font size larger by about 250%

### 5/5 — Thank you!

*2017-03-31*

Love the widget. Makes it practical. No sense in opening an app to check the time. This is the only app that displays internet time in a widget so I'm very grateful to you. Would also love if you revisited the Apple Watch feature. Thank you for the app ☺️

### 5/5 — Great @beats app

*2016-11-12*

Don't wait another beat to get this app! This is a great @ beats implementation. 

I am not sure why the Apple Watch support had to be removed and I hope it comes back in the next update.

### 5/5 — So simple

*2016-11-11, version 1.0.1*

It just simply works; doing what it's supposed to do!

### 5/5 — Spectacular!

*2016-08-01*

:D
