### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-07-17*

Good app, could use some variation in the sounds of metronome you get, and maybe a cleanup on the UI for changing the tempo and other niche things. But all around very useful and more worth the money than any other metronome app out there, even using free it’s better than all other metronome apps that lock straight forward features behind paywalls. Like subdivisions etc. good game as well to play when bored to improve sight reading. Would appreciate  reading setting that is a voice, so you could count along

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-07-13, version 1.0.23*

JP is the man

### 5/5 — JP and the RB

*2026-06-29, version 1.0.23*

Best ever!

### 5/5 — Very good just some features I’d like to see implemented!

*2026-06-16, version 1.0.23*

I love the customisable metronome it’s by far the best out there I would just like to see the number of beats you can have increased e.g to allow an 11 metronome for practicing a night in Tunisia. Also I think the adding accents and removing beats feature isn’t working quite right on the metronome. Other than that the random beat generator thing is very good for practicing art of bop style comping and sight reading. This app is very much worth the price!

### 5/5 — Ted Reeds fuming rn

*2026-05-24*

This app, with premium (which is only a single payment of 5 bucks) pretty comfortably stumps every single one I’ve used or heard of. I used to use PolyNome before buying this, and though that app does a few things this doesn’t like creating custom rhythms and applying drumsets sounds to each note, and being able to change the metronome sounds (JP please add these), this has the necessities, and of course the random rhythm generator, which is stupid useful for anyone who needs to sightread or learn charts quickly. My only complaint is I feel stupid now for buying Syncopation. Great app.

### 5/5 — Useful training tool

*2026-05-22, version 1.0.23*

RhythmBot has an simple, intuitive interface. The random patterns make for great sight reading training.

### 5/5 — Game Changer

*2026-04-30*

This app and of course watching JP play have changed the game for me. I finally unlocked something that has been missing from my playing and this app made that happen. It’s all about the feel and inner clock.

### 5/5 — The perfect learning app.

*2026-04-27, version 1.0.22*

Amazing app. They keep making new updates to push the learning further. Great for site reading or general rhythm practice. Also has a great metronome interface. All round best app for any drummer.

### 5/5 — What an app!

*2026-03-31*

Thank you jp for making this app. It’s an incredible tool for drummers. Everything is so intuitive; you can play around with different rhythms; it has a sight reading and a practice feature; it generates grooves in different time signatures, and it has a metronome built in? Best thing under 5 bucks. Well worth your money

### 5/5 — Tap and learn!

*2026-01-31, version 1.0.20*

Best money spent on an app. Turns learning a difficult skill into playing a fun game.
