Always good but problem with iPhone Pro Max 15
I’ve used this in my professional career for many years now and it’s an indispensable tool for me. However I’ve just upgraded to an iPhone pro max 15 and the tempo setlist advancing with the proximity sensor seems to no longer work. Please can you advise how to sort this out? Thanks.
Best metronome app I have used.
Simple and reliable. Perfect for using live.
No visual count
I love the app but unfortunately there is no visual 1234 etc
Great app

Professional, well designed and perrrrrect
Spot on!
By far and away the best I’ve used.
Really helpful for checking bpms
I’m a fitness instructor and need to know the bpm of every song i want to use - and Tempo means I can be accurate!
Time signatures
Amazing found 6/8 and amazingly found 6/4 on this app
An Excellent And Easy To Use App
A brilliant app that is easy to use. Lots of great features. Highly recommended.
Good but could be amazing..
Needs a feature that allows you to have different tempos on the same song for different lengths time/bars, with options for different time signatures would be amazing. Also on the practice session mode, needs to have an option so that the tempo doesn’t keep going up continuously after certain bars/time. We should have the option to set how many times it should go up or not. Other than that one of the best metronome apps, but really needs those features!
Great app
This little fella is fab, fast, reliable and easy to use. Pro job, well done guys.
