Description
This metronome app is created by a musician for musicians. Almost all metronome apps boast about their accuracy, but users with sensitive hearing notice inaccurate beats all the time. It used to be impossible to create a perfectly accurate metronome on a mobile device. Despite the failure of other apps, perfect time is possible for TrueMetronome: its unique engine creates perfect beats with ABSOLUTE ZERO error. For this reason, TrueMetronome is most accurate metronome app on any mobile platform.
Sound quality is the second issue for software metronomes. Serious musicians prefer a natural sound filled with overtones, but all metronome apps play short synthetic samples (so that the first sound stops completely before the next begins). Thus, you hear an artificial, dead sound. Moreover, the identical samples playing at the same frequency can drive any man crazy! TrueMetronome solves this problem thoroughly: all sounds are recorded from real metronomes, a beat does not affect the gradual decay of its predecessors, and each beat's sound is a little different from the others. All this contributes to the natural sound which is easier on your ears.
Finally, an aesthetic, thoughtful interface is an important aspect of any application, and TrueMetronome pays particular attention to it. Creating an electronic metronome interface is simple, but TrueMetronome does not cut corners: it recreates the look and feel of a real mechanical metronome; every mark on the scale is labeled with a tempo mark, the deviation angle of the pendulum depends on the tempo, and the tempo is selected by dragging the weight.
You can adjust the tempo in 2 BPM (beats per minute) increments by dragging the digital weight. This restriction prevents a change of tempo from accidental touches, and when you need greater precision in the selection of the tempo, there are "+" and "-" buttons as well. On the lower part of the metronome, you can turn the bell on and off and select the number of beats per measure.
To start or to stop the beats, simply tap anywhere.

Ratings and Reviews
Great for travel
When at home i always use my traditional wind up metronome, partially because I’m old fashioned, but mainly because the romantic in me feels that there is just something harmonious about practicing with an old 20th century metronome. That said, when touring I typically leave the old clunker at home and then turn to this metronome app for my daily practice runs. It’s a great app metronome and I really like the traditional sounds and feel that it has. Great little guy for sure. Highly recommend.
Best Sounding App
Thanks for quickly fixing the loading issue! This app sounds just like my piano instructors metronome wooden Wittner metronome. Others have fake sounds that tend to distract me. I normally use it with a small external speaker I set away from the piano so it is in the background and keep my phone next to me to change tempo. I also like that compared to a real one, I can use it with my AirPods underneath my pianos over the ear headphones when I need to practice in silent mode late at night.
Developer Response ,
Thank you! The issue with loading is fixed in a new update.
It’s amazing
I’m a music artist and I love this metronome. Even though it can’t go the fastest, I think it’s pretty great. Just to say, I don’t need my metronome to go THAT fast. Good job, it’s really cool. It feels like I actually have a real metronome in front of me. Realistic and awesome. I hope more people will use this to upgrade their piano skills!🌷
