Don't know how to use this app. Is it possible to make it easier?

A one stop metronome for your needs

Rhythm patterns are user friendly, as it can be tailored to the user’s needs. After weeks of using, I feel that my playing has gotten better, if not improved.

I feel that some pronunciations on some musical notations which are used for the auto voice count (for example the sixteenth note count 1 e n a) can be worked upon as both n and the a sounds almost confusingly similar, which needs to be carefully listened.

For a price of almost $30, this app is totally worth investing.

Greedy developer

After having paid quite a large sum of money to get the pro version you slap on top of that subscription pricing for “premium” features!?! The pro version is already very expensive. What’s gotten into your head buddy, dollar signs obviously. Subscribing to a magazine where content changes weekly is one thing, subscribing to a static piece of software is another. This is inexcusable and outright robbery. You should be ashamed of yourself. You are the most expensive metronome app and now your subscription pricing on top of that to get all features is absolutely nuts. How much money do you want???

Developer Response ,

Hi Paul,

I understand how the word “subscription” might automatically trigger a response in some people. I’m happy to clarify that PolyNome Premium is completely optional.

Whether or not you choose to subscribe does not affect the features you currently have in PolyNome Pro. PolyNome Premium only ADDS to your experience with new and exciting features introduced from now on.

On top of that, new Pro users get all Premium features included for their first year of owning the app.

Again, if you’re happy with the Pro features you currently have, you do not have to subscribe. I’ve thought long and hard about this subscription model and believe that it is a fair and flexible way for users to support the future development of the app.

All the best,
Joe
