VisionTempo vs DashJam

Hello everyone, I am very happy to introduce my new app: VisionTempo!!! Most metronomes currently on the market are constant metronomes. Although they do have features such as gradual increasing tempo and presets, they only cover the most basic needs of practicing. One problem that I had with them was that I was not able to change the time signatures and tempo quick enough in time for my next entry. For example, in the piece Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso, there are many tempo change markings, and it would be physically impossible to reach the controls on a metronome app quick enough as to stay on track with the accompaniment. Because of this, I created this app with the ability to detect hand gestures using AI, which will shift the tempo up or down by 10 beats. This solution is by no means the final product; I am still trying to figure out better ways to use gesture detection with the app (one idea that I currently have is that I can assign certain gestures to toggle between presets; this could enable more accurate tempo changing). But with my one-man R&D team, these features will be implemented slower than commercial companies. Hopefully others musicians will also find this app useful! Have a great day! - James

DashJam quietly records your whole rehearsal so you never lose the moment you forgot to hit record for. Start a session and keep playing. DashJam holds the most recent 15 minutes of audio in a rolling buffer. When something good happens — a riff, a take, a happy accident — tap Save Jam and pick exactly the stretch you want right on the live waveform. The moment lands in your Library as a shareable audio file. No more "wait, were we recording?" WHY MUSICIANS LIKE IT • Record continuously, decide later. The last 15 minutes are always there to save — you choose the moment after it happens, not before. • Pick it on the waveform. Save Jam opens a live waveform; drag the handles to grab just the part that mattered, then confirm. • Save from the Lock Screen. A Live Activity and Dynamic Island show the recording state and put a save action a tap away while your phone is in your pocket or on a stand. • It survives a crash. If the app gets killed mid-session, your rolling buffer is still there when you reopen. • A Library you'll actually browse. Saves get evocative auto-generated names ("Crimson Spiral", "Velvet Comet") you can rename, with in-app playback. • Your files, your way. Saved jams export as .m4a and show up in the Files app under DashJam — share them by AirDrop, Messages, or any share sheet. • Designed for iOS. Clean, content-first interface built on the latest iOS design system, tinted recording-red. • English and German, with an in-app language override. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Audio never leaves your device. The rolling buffer lives in the app's cache; saved jams live in the app's documents folder. Nothing is uploaded, ever — you decide if and when a recording leaves your iPhone by sharing or exporting it. There are no accounts, no sign-in, and no tracking. DashJam needs microphone access to record, and keeps recording in the background so a session keeps running while you play. That's it. DASHJAM PRO — OPTIONAL Everything above is free. DashJam Pro unlocks a rolling buffer of up to 60 minutes, automatic jam detection (Beta), trimming saved jams on the waveform — keeping the original or replacing it — Places (arrival and leave reminders at your rehearsal spots), and the audio quality/mono picker. • DashJam Pro — Yearly: 1-year auto-renewing subscription • DashJam Pro — Monthly: 1-month auto-renewing subscription • DashJam Pro — Lifetime: one-time purchase, does not renew Prices are shown in your local currency inside the app, on the DashJam Pro screen, before you buy.
