This app helps so much in my classroom rhythm training exercises. Much more efficient than writing rhythms on the fly or using a set of cards that students end up memorizing.I love that you can set it to generate a new rhythm every x repeats and that it can get progressively harderCompletely worth the purchase!

This is so much fun to play along with and really easy to use! I loved hitting the dice icon to shuffle to the next rhythm. Looking forward to working through all the difficulty levels!

Thank you! I’m so pleased you like it. Some fun additions coming with the next update with the ability to shuffle imported rhythms.
Constantly demanding payment
Finklehorn3476
They call it free? Every time I hit the play button it just gives two options: pay every month or pay every year. Choosing Maybe later doesn’t free the app to continue functioning.
Developer Response
Hi,It’s free to play levels 1-4, or rhythms from the library (when you tap Shuffle at the top), or rhythms scanned from QR codes. You should only see the paywall if you’re trying to play a rhythm of a higher level, or shuffle a pattern from the library. If that’s not the case, please email me at support@polynome.net so I can help you get it working again. Best,Joe
