BPM Counter & Detector 4+

Simple, no frills.

Does what it says on the tin. The ads are annoying, however. I would pay for a version to remove them.

Poor Accuracy

For the free version, all you'll get with it is the tap BPM feature. And they stick a giant add and hide the "x" to close it. It's deceptive and makes people think you have to buy the app to use any feature. Worst of all, the "tap" feature is NOT accurate. I've compared it side by side with professional music production and pro dj software and tapped at the same tempo and it's off by several (at least 6 BPM at closest) from what I've seen. Use another app or find another solution.

Developer Response ,

We’re sorry to hear you had a frustrating experience. The free version includes the tap feature, and we do rely on ads to support ongoing development—but we’ll review your feedback about ad placement and clarity. As for BPM accuracy, the tap feature relies on consistent input and can vary, especially compared to software using audio analysis. That said, we appreciate you pointing this out and will look into ways to improve both accuracy and user experience. Thanks for helping us make the app better.

Free version is too limited

With the free version you can tap the beat and get an accurate reading providing you tap for awhile. However, that’s ALL you get. If you want to save a list of songs with their bpm you’ll need to pay $2.99/ month. Every control on the screen sends you to the “upgrade to Pro version” page. In the mean time they’re tracking your activity across all apps. I will uninstall as soon as I find something better.
