### 5/5 — 👌🏻5️⃣⭐️

*2020-04-09, version 2.1*

I have tried some other metronom applications, but far this is the best! Thanks a lot! 5️⃣⭐️

### 4/5 — This is great and I hope it gets better!!

*2019-09-08, version 1.1*

New drummer here. Want to get down on my rudiments, stamina and timing. This app is amazing. Super simple to use and understand.

Particularly love the subtle fade out of the helper clicks when you’re on time. Need to try this with headphones as without it often picks out it’s on clicks but that’s fine.

Unsure what significance the coloured bars have (as in before you play the notes) if they just delineate the sections that’s fine .

Somethings I’d love to see / pay for in future for a 5 star rating.

* An editor so you can make your own patterns, or at the least an update or IAP that has more patterns.

* optional sticking suggestions along the lines of the rudiments for beginners like me to learn from but optional so you can try your own 

* some stats on how a pattern went that session. Accuracy, earlys, lates, histograms to show improvements at tempo 

Don’t know what you have in the works but honesty impressed at what you have so far!

### 5/5 — Viclaza

*2019-01-26, version 1.0*

Fasza!!!

### 5/5 — nice minimalist app w great potential

*2019-01-24, version 1.0*

niice minimalist ui makes it easy to use & understand.
would be nice to get some data about my performance after every session maybe.

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2019-01-24, version 1.0*

I’m not an expert drummer, but helped me a lot to start practicing. Perfect for beginners as well ^^

### 5/5 — simple and fun

*2019-01-23, version 1.0*

my guitar hero skills are finally paying off

### 5/5 — Such a great app!

*2018-12-09, version 1.0*

Slick interface means the learning curve is reduced to zero. Effective exercises to improve sense of time. Real-time feedback to check if you are doing it right. Such a great first release with so much potential

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2024-05-22, version 4.0*

Downloaded. Crashed every time I touched the screen

### 1/5 — Close to useless

*2022-02-15, version 4.0*

The mic hardly picks up anything unless it is right on the practice pad, where you also hit. Good chance of striking the device too. I think this is quite a design flaw.

### 1/5 — Horrible 🤬

*2021-08-09, version 4.0*

This app does not work do not buy. I have a iPod touch and this app does not work for it!

### 1/5 — Bad not support AirPods

*2020-03-16, version 2.0*

Bad not support AirPods

### 2/5 — Danke für nichts

*2021-02-05, version 3.3*

Bis jetzt hab ich super gern mit dieser App geübt. Aber mit dem neuen Update wird die Funktion, eigene Übungen zu erstellen 5,49€ teuer. Ohne diese Funktion kann ich mit der App wenig anfangen. Ich ärgere mich, dass ich geupdated hab.

### 3/5 — Good,  but can’t edit metronome sounds.

*2023-08-03, version 4.0*

I like this app and it’s simplicity.  It does what it says it does.   It looks nice and functions very well. What I don’t like is that you cannot edit the metronome sounds nor time signature.  It would be helpful to be able to dictate the time signature and sub divisions of the metronome. You can pay for the ability to edit or create permutations, but I don’t know how well this works without being able to edit the metronome sounds.  Thanks

### 3/5 — Tolle App um das Timing zu verbessern.

*2023-05-28, version 4.0*

Eine super Ergänzung wäre noch eine Möglichkeit, automatisch das Tempo zu steigern.

### 4/5 — great app but can’t upgrade

*2024-08-08, version 4.0*

this app has great potential as a tool for improving accuracy. unfortunately I can neither see the price for the full version version nor get the “buy now” button to work. I tried this in both the iPhone and iPad versions of the app with the same result. wrote to support. will update review after this is fixed.

### 4/5 — Quiet Tick

*2023-05-06, version 4.0*

Great app that is monumental useful. good responsiveness and plenty patterns built in. I have a hard time hearing the tick of the metronome though, I wish I could change its sound.

### 4/5 — Great app for practicing

*2023-02-23*

This is a great app for beginners drummers and warming up. I use it a lot of my double pedals and I’ve seen improvement. My own concerns is that the tick/volume is way too low so it is hard to stay with the click

### 5/5 — Ticking

*2025-06-17, version 4.0*

It’s good

### 5/5 — Great app! Especially for being free

*2025-02-25, version 4.0*

I’ve been using this app for months now and it’s really helpful for learning doubles. Thank you for the app being free! Tempo changes and the option to keep the metronome going even when hitting on time would be great.

### 5/5 — Time

*2024-05-31, version 4.0*

It’s improving my speed and timing so I give it a 5 star rating at the moment

### 5/5 — Very good

*2024-05-19, version 4.0*

Simple and beautiful app. The only ask is to be able to raise the click volume.

### 5/5 — Killer!

*2023-02-07, version 4.0*

Putting my left hand in check - awesome!

### 5/5 — Very helpful

*2022-06-05, version 4.0*

This app keeps me honest and humbled -(Apt.Q-258)

### 5/5 — Great Timing Coach for Drummers! 🥁

*2022-02-10, version 4.0*

I absolutely love the simplicity and sleekness of this app, it’s very accurate with my practice pad taps and has become a staple of my practice pad sessions!

I also really like the accuracy readings after each session 🙌🏽 Keeps me motivated to beat my last time!

### 5/5 — Ticking

*2021-07-16, version 4.0*

I love ticking! It helps me with my speed and tempo when I start play drums. One thing I recommend is to having to put your device on the drum pad because it falls off easily when you play, so maybe have better sensors of what you’re playing from a farther distance.

### 5/5 — K

*2021-05-31, version 4.0*

My kids love it

### 5/5 — Ticker

*2021-04-23, version 3.3*

Simple app that does just what it says. I struggle with consistency in my timing and this is helping to get it under control. Speaker capture function works well when placed on or right next to the practice pad unlike other apps I have tried. Works placing it on the snare drum as well just flip the snares off.   The visual portion is a great feature that fades when hitting the right notes and the tick changes based on your consistency as well. Doesn’t meep data, but it does give you accuracy after each session. Glad I am that I found this app. Don’t know about the editing feature, not even sure I will mess with it,  because if I have any to learn other routines I will just write them out and use the metronome.
