New: Studio turns your iPad or iPhone into a treadmill dashboard — cadence, pace and heart rate on one screen. One-time purchase, no subscription.
Cadence Coach is a precise running metronome with a private, on-device AI coach that helps you find and hold the perfect step rate. Whether you are chasing a 180 spm target, easing back into running after injury, or just want a steadier rhythm, Cadence Coach keeps you on beat.

As I am running, it seems to lose the beat occasionally. Also needs to provide more flexibility in setting custom beats
Developer Response
Thanks for taking the time to report this! Great news — both the beat stability and custom beat settings have been improved in a new version currently under App Store review. Would love to hear what you think once it's live!
