TERRIBLE!! Don't buy it!!!! 0 stars!!!
Baba Booey2017

It told me a 136bpm song was 88bpm! This app is a waste of money!!!


Don't buy
DJ Dave amedat

Gets the correct bpm 1/4 of the time. I agree with other users, don't buy this program.


Turns off iTunes
Kauri Chalker

Most of the time, what I want to do is know the BPM of a song on my device in iTunes. This device turns iTunes off, thereby rendering the ap useless to me. Unless your purpose is to get the BPM of music playing on an external source, don't waste your money.


Unusable with iTunes

Turns off iTunes


Huge Rip-Off

Save your money! Cannot play a tune on iPad and run this app at the same time. Music has to be external to iPad for the app to work...what's the point! I want my money back


**Waste of money**
DaDrummerChick

This is the most inaccurate app for detecting BPM that I have ever used. They just throw out 4 random numbers!?!?!? Ridiculous and they actually charge for this?! I truly regret this purchase. There is no worst way that I could have spent my money...


No stars

I want my money back. I activated the microphone and it still doesn't work.


Terrible
Goble 30

Absolute crap. It doesn't work at all. In fact I can't even get it to start...


Doesn't work.
Coalcreeker

Tried multiple times to get it to detect any sound at all. Nothing. Make sure your app works before you ask people to pay for it. Waste of money.
