### 4/5 — Cool app

*2025-03-13, version 1.7*

Lots of styles to choose from and play along wish. Wish it had “Inter-Audio App” support though to use in GarageBand for example.

### 4/5 — Too simple but it sounds good

*2024-07-17, version 1.7*

Simple and quick, as promised, but only usable at home as a metronome for practicing mostly just in 4/4. It doesn’t do changes or multiple parts, no fills, no transitions, etc, so you can’t set It up for a whole song. And almost all of the tracks are in 4/4 so you’re out of luck if you’re looking for 6/8 or cut time. The “slow rock” beats are in 3/4 I think though so at least you might be able to play a waltz, but they don’t work for jigs or anything like that. 

All that said, it sounds good for what it does, and you can use the free version uninterrupted as long as you watch an ad every few days.

### 4/5 — Only one thing missing

*2024-05-30, version 1.7*

Love this drummer app. Good for live performance! Just one thing missing, there needs to be a drum fill function!

### 5/5 — Just like it says in the name

*2024-04-17, version 1.7*

This is a great app if you want a drummer quickly just something to play along to

### 5/5 — Great

*2023-07-18, version 1.7*

Thanks for great beats for my church also

### 4/5 — THE Best Drumming App

*2023-07-18, version 1.7*

Hands down.   If you’ve found a better one, let us know.    Can adjust tempo, great beats, real sound.

### 5/5 — Excellent Drum App!

*2023-07-06*

This is a simple to use drum app with lots of genres you can jam along with. Bluetooth it into your amp or speaker. Great fun whilst also improving your timing. 
5 stars from me!

### 5/5 — Much better than using a metronome

*2023-06-08, version 1.7*

I usually practice with this app instead of a metronome. The tempos are preset but you can change the tempo after you select one. All you need to do is select a drumbeat that has the subdivisions that match what you are trying to practice.

### 4/5 — YOUR MOTHER LIKES IT!

*2023-06-05, version 1.7*

Very groovy and very switched on!
Nice selection of grooves and the sounds are like mmmmmmh oh mmmmm Dougie! Would be great to have fill ins and rolls too!
Great fab and moist!

### 5/5 — What can i say

*2023-03-09, version 1.7*

Does what it says, seems to work fine and yes, i like it. Sending the sound to a Bluetooth speaker is much better than just using the phone but hey, the phone works just fine too.

### 5/5 — Functional drum beats

*2022-12-31, version 1.7*

If you are looking for simple no fuss clear drum beats to practice to for guitar or bass or drums, this app is it.
It’s functional, easy to use, and gets the job done.
No frills just solid beats.

### 5/5 — I always say," what do you call a guy that hangs around with musicians?" "A Drummer!"

*2022-10-06, version 1.7*

It never goes over well. But, this app will. 
Keeps you honest and in time. If you give it a month of a couple hours a day, you won't believe the difference. Then keep challenging yourself and gain confidence. Great app.

### 5/5 — Great app to jam to

*2022-09-30, version 1.6*

I love this app. it’s better than any built-in amp drum machine I’ve had. Easy to change styles and BPM‘s and sounds great through my Bluetooth speaker. I wish this was available when I started playing but now I really just love jamming to it

### 5/5 — Can’t save a list

*2022-09-21, version 1.6*

Can’t save anything in favourites?
Not very useful.

### 1/5 — Battery eater

*2025-09-30, version 1.7*

I purchased a few weeks ago but suddenly it is eating through my battery even after swiping up to make sure it wasn’t running. Now off loaded.

### 1/5 — A good app…

*2024-08-29, version 1.7*

I have no choice but to reduce this rating for 5 stars to 1. I bought the complete version, yet, it still shows ads. Even worse, I can’t adjust the tempo for some reason. Another issue is why doesn’t this show up as an audio unit extension with GarageBand and AUM?

But why no odd time signatures? No options for 5/4… 5/8… 7/8… 7/4 etc… I have to record the audio, then edit it in order to create odd time signatures

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2023-02-17, version 1.7*

iPhone 12 iOS 16.3.1

### 1/5 — How does it work?

*2017-05-01, version 1.0*

Not a lot of instruction, lights flashing to a beat but no sound. Volume up. Might be doing something wrong but definitely not an intuitive app.

### 2/5 — 付費後會閃退

*2022-11-10, version 1.7*

麻煩修正，謝謝！

### 2/5 — 某些鼓組改變速度會閃退

*2017-05-05, version 1.2*

如題

### 3/5 — UI issues

*2023-11-13, version 1.7*

Your interface is pretty clunky. It’s not very user friendly.

### 3/5 — Review

*2023-05-04, version 1.7*

Great instrument. Good samples. Easy to use. My gripe is lack of instructions. How do we save beats in favourites. Everything I tried has failed. If this review is read by a person, and not a bot, I would appreciate some help here. I have the paid version.

### 3/5 — But no variation.

*2022-08-24, version 1.6*

No randomness logic. Rather behind the times.

### 3/5 — Really good but….

*2022-04-14, version 1.6*

The latest update seems to have made it so that the buttons on the top of the screen can’t be tapped. So I’m can’t switch from beats to player.  Maybe in another update?

### 5/5 — Drum-tastic!!

*2026-06-15, version 1.7*

Excellent!! Great features and drum sounds are fantastic.

### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for Easy to use.

*2026-06-01, version 1.7*

Really is quick and easy. Good ux, adjustable low/mid/high.  Just wish it had even more variety— but for free? This is fantastic.

### 5/5 — Free drummer

*2025-06-26, version 1.7*

Great perfect accompaniment and free!!!!!
Thanks very much

### 5/5 — Cool app

I’m really enjoying this app

Awesome

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-03-03, version 1.7*

Landscape mode would be cool.

### 5/5 — Dobry!

*2024-10-04, version 1.7*

Bardzo inspirujący metronom

### 5/5 — 當作有趣的節拍器

*2024-08-29, version 1.7*

Very useful for practicing instruments

### 5/5 — A good app…

*2024-08-02*

But why no odd time signatures? No options for 5/4… 5/8… 7/8… 7/4 etc… I have to record the audio, then edit it in order to create odd time signatures

### 5/5 — Very Good

*2024-07-03, version 1.7*

I never write reviews, however this app was different. I spent days trying to find a good drum app that I could use for playing simply beats while my band did a jam (we currently have no drummer lol). I stumbled across this app and found it perfect for background beats while we jam under all types of genres. We do jazz jams, funk grooves and even some reggae stuff too. This app has been a lifesaver while we struggle without a drummer. Another amazing feature is the ability to watch an ad and then be ad free for 3 days. Other apps make you watch ads after every beat you play; which would not settle well for a live presentation. However, this app you could use at a life performance and not worry about an ad interrupting your band. All in all, 10/10 app if you want a simple groove to jam over!
