Organize your drum practice, track your progress, and stay motivated – with Drumbitious, the smart practice journal for drummers!
Practice drums with structure — and see the proof that you're getting better.
Drumbitious is a practice planner and diary for drummers. Build your own exercises, put them into a plan, and start a focused session with one tap. Every session is logged automatically, so your progress stops being a feeling and becomes something you can look at.
BUILT-IN METRONOME
30 to 300 BPM, time signatures from 1/4 to 8/4 plus 3/8, 6/8 and 7/8, subdivisions in quarters, eighths, triplets and sixteenths, tap tempo and its own volume. Start it and your practice timer starts with it.
Switch on dynamic mode and the tempo climbs by itself — 80, 85, 90, and on. Set the step and how many bars you want at each speed, then take a rudiment or a fill from comfortable to fast without touching your phone in the middle of practice. Steps of 1 to 50 BPM, every 1 to 99 bars. (Premium)
PRACTICE TIMER, TWO WAYS
Count down from a target duration, or run a stopwatch and let it record what you actually played. Both keep running when you switch apps.
SEE YOUR CONSISTENCY
A month heatmap colours every day you practised — the longer, the deeper. Your current and longest streak sit right above it, next to a weekly goal you set yourself: 30 minutes or three hours, your call.
RECORDS AND TRENDS
Longest session, best week, highest BPM, lifetime practice time. Plus charts of your top BPM and how practising felt, across your whole history — per exercise, per plan, over time.
PRACTICE PLANS
Combine rudiments, grooves, fills and independence drills into a routine that fits your goal. Start it with one tap and work through it exercise by exercise.
YOUR OWN EXERCISE LIBRARY
Create your own exercises or import ready-made ones from a growing shared library. Attach sheet music PDFs, audio, video and images — and mark up PDFs right inside a session, so your notes are there next time.
30 DAYS OF RUDIMENTS
One tap builds a 30-day rudiment plan and drops five exercises into your library. A ready-made starting point if you don't know where to begin.
PRACTICE ANYWHERE
Works offline — your plans, exercises and the metronome need no connection. Your account syncs across iPhone, iPad and Android, and the app speaks English, German and Spanish.
WHO IT'S FOR
Drummers who take practice seriously, whether you just started or have been playing for years. If your drum lessons produce more loose paper than progress, this is where it all goes.
Built by a drummer who needed exactly this. Have an idea that would make practising easier? I'm all ears.

Metronome didn’t work for me, not sure if it’s locked behind premium or not. Not a deal breaker, I have alternatives, but still a bit annoying. The stuff locked behind premium isn’t ridiculous, you still have access to 90% of the app without it, which is really nice, especially with how much similar apps lock behind and charge for premium. Overall a must have for self taught drummers.
Developer Response
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review :)! The metronome should be working and is not locked behind premium - only some settings of the metronome are. If it’s still not fixed I would love to figure out what’s wrong. Maybe you can send me an email from the feedback/bug-reporting tool within the app and add a screenshot of your metronome settings. That would be great!
• Statistics rework – redesigned stats screen with clearer charts, new insights into your practice habits and detailed stats per exercise
• Dynamic metronome (Premium) – speeds up automatically every few bars while you play, perfect for building speed
• Stopwatch mode – the practice timer can now count up instead of down and saves the measured time to your session
• Starting the metronome now also starts the practice timer
• Bug fixes, improved stability and performance
