Ratings and Reviews
Great App
I use this all the time for practicing guitar, not just for steady pace for chord changes, picking, etc but just as an approximate measure count when just trying to get repetition.
With both the guitar & horn it's also a great help to get objective feedback on my ability to speed up the pace with a passage as I get better.
Another neat trick that I'll need another for (my wife's) I will start 2 metronomes at once to get a better feel for how, for example, eighth notes & triplets sound together - helpful when another orchestra section is playing something different.
Using this app also increases my ability to use my ear for my surrounding while playing, to better play with others during rehearsals or performances.
Finally, this has many options, & for an amateur like me it's perfect. My ability to listen and play to what I hear, i think essential for anyone who wants to play with others, absolutely improves with this.
Big Gig
Some years ago, I had a very important gig with a very famous person who, on top of being a legend and a brilliant musician was a stickler for songs, starting a little bit slower live knowing that we have an inclination to speed up once were off the click. I initially downloaded this app to have a quick handy reference live when counting off from behind the kit and used it well as to practice through the set as well. I found it easy and intuitive as a basic metronome.
Then I discovered I could practice various snare rudiments and guitar mandolin exercises and have them speed up as measures passed. I just fell in love with this app. There are other features that I have not used but they are here when needed. If I’m not mistaken, I have been using it since 2015 and I honestly never use anything else at this point.

Great App But Has Its Issues
Been using this app for a few months a the click track for our worship team. It’s been great, then suddenly the volume changes without notice at different tempos. I.E. today we played a song at 105 and quarter note beats. The volume was maxed on the iPad, but was barely audible through our in ear monitors. When we switched to the second track, at 90bpm, and 1/8 notes, volume nearly doubled in the ears causing everyone to groan and pull their ears out immediately.
Tried programming at half tempo and 1/8 notes, no luck. Tried deleting and recreating the song, no dice. Tried a completely different device, same issue. Didn’t matter. It’s quite annoying. We really need to get this fixed. It seems to be a program or coding error, and it would be nice to get it figured out.
It seems like anything below 65 bpm and anything around 105bpm are at about 2/3 volume. Having anyone from the developer reach out to fix this would be awesome.
