### 3/5 — Great, simple counter...but

*2019-07-02, version 1.0*

I use this to find RPM’s for a cycle workout class.  It works perfect for counting out multiple songs without the need of a reset button. 
The problem is when you start saving songs. This is a great feature, but once you fill the song list I can’t find a way to get back to the counter. You need to swipe left to return to the counter, but when the track list is full, swiping left deletes a song. I have to close the app and reopen. Please resolve and I will rerate at 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Simple, easy, good

*2019-02-19, version 1.0*

Simple and easy with intuitive controls and no fuzz. Also gives you Italian descriptions to all tempi.
