### 5/5 — Great, Simple Design

*2026-04-08*

My polyrhythm counting sucks. I was seeking out a simple design for practice and this cut the bill. Great for working on two rhythms simultaneous. Recommend highly.

### 4/5 — super app, but here some wishes/ideas:

*2025-12-27*

super app, hier einige ideen: 
- polyrhythm change on the fly (without need to restart playback) 
- combine two or three polyrythms to hear and learn relations between them (so one can learn the exakt relations between for example 5:4 following 7:6 on the base of the same tempo)
- on the fly tempo change without playback stop

### 4/5 — Not up to date

*2024-06-05*

This is a great app and very useful but it’s not up to date with the android version. I hope you update it, I would love this so much more.

**Developer response:** We are working on an update. Stay tuned!

### 4/5 — Good basic polyrhythm app

*2024-01-28*

I love the simplicity of factors. My priority would be a options for clicks sounds. A third voice would be great as well. Are you planning any updates ?

**Developer response:** Noted, thank you for the feedback. We will take it into consideration for future updates.

### 5/5 — Superb - Well Executed

*2022-12-18*

Really worth the small fee to support the Developers. Very well designed and straight forward to use. Highly recommend if you wish to open up new grooves and subtleties.

**Developer response:** Glad you enjoy the app and thank you for your support!

### 1/5 — Too few for the price

*2022-02-15*

It does what it say but it doesn’t even offer any kind of different sounds / klicks. It‘s so simple one has to wonder why other apps like Pro Metronome do offer incomparably more functions and settings for the same price. Yes, developing costs time, effort and money but please check the competitors before you purchase this app which is more like a basic frame work for something that could be the light version of the light version of a serious metronome app.

### 5/5 — Very useful and intuitive app

*2022-02-10*

Well-made app, simple, and straightforward. A few suggestions:

1. Ability to play polyrhythm in background while using a different app
2. More than two rhythms (e.g. 3:5:7 or 3:5:7:11)
3. increment/decrement tempo with plus/minus buttons or (even better) auto accelerate/decelerate
4. When only two rhythms, option to assign one rhythm to left audio channel and the other rhythm to right audio channel. This would help in training the left hand to sync with the left ear and right hand to sync with the right ear.
5. Option to make sounds more like clicks rather than drums because, when the tempo is very fast, clicks would be easier to hear as distinct events.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback!

### 5/5 — Perfect except I’d love to do more than 2 rhythms!

*2021-09-20*

This app is so simple and so worth the money. I’d just love to be able to add more rhythms instead of just being able to manipulate the 2!

### 4/5 — Perfect save one flaw

*2021-04-23*

Perfectly simple, great app, worth the price!
My only complaint is that touching any of the settings disables the play button; it would be better if I could isolate the top/bottom beats, adjust tempo, and change beat patterns without constantly needing to spam the play button with my other hand. 
Otherwise this is a 5 star app!

### 5/5 — Super

*2020-10-19*

Simple et efficace, application parfaite !
