Find the BPM of any song automatically — no tapping. Now with Apple Watch support and a rewritten engine: faster, more accurate, more battery-friendly.
Any song. Any room. Instant BPM.
Point your iPhone at the music and watch the tempo appear — automatically, in real time. No tapping. No guessing.
BPM Detector listens through your mic and locks onto the beat of whatever's playing — a track, a live band, a drum loop, a record — and shows the BPM the moment it hears it.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
• Zero tapping — the BPM just appears, and keeps updating live.
• Real-time accuracy — watch the number lock in within seconds.
• Made for how you work — DJs, producers, drummers, dancers, fitness instructors, and curious listeners.
FEATURES
• Automatic BPM detection — read the live tempo of any music or instrument, hands-free.
• Shazam built in — grab the song title and artist while you read its BPM.
• Apple Watch app — see the tempo right on your wrist.

I use this to glean the bpm of records I plan to mix for dj sets. Works pretty well for standard stuff, however it’s kinda thrown off by more intricate beats or stuff that isn’t a standard time signature. Either way, totally worth the $0 spent and keeps me from using my brain.

I’ve tried them all! This app has the best design and great accuracy. I’ve been using it for band practices and live shows for the past six months and i can’t imagine playing without it. I keep a phone mount just below my hi hats so i can always see it. i especially love that landscape / fullscreen mode is so clean and elegant, and also shows the .5x and 2x multiples of the tempo in the corners, which is a really elegant way of giving effortless visibility outside the primary range for detection.

Just what I was looking for

This app is as advertised. My son (12yo) is a drummer and I was looking for something he can use to time his BPM to songs to improve his pace and timing without needing someone else to “tap” it for him. This worked perfectly… and to make it even better the developer responded to questions in less than a day on a weekend. Highly appreciate that kind of service. Kudos, great app!!
THIS is the one you want.

Other BPM Detectors don’t really detect anything. They simply require you to physically tap along to the beat to determine the beats per minute. THIS app is the one you have been searching for. It listens to the music and provides the BPM. Great for DJs and anyone who wants to create their own bpm specific workout music. Works with the Shazam app that identifies any song in seconds. 5 Stars!
