Reviews

The Standard
Joser2112

I’ve downloaded and purchased most metronomes on iOS, this is the standard. Other apps may have a niche use but for 99 out of 100 uses, I turn to this Tempo. As a owner of the classic stand alone metronomes (dr. Beat, beatlab, rhythm watch) they all collect dust now. This is the metronome I have recommended to my students for years. Ease of use, functionality and price set Tempo, as I said, as the standard bearer. Update 3-23-19 Still the best, no contest. 10/27/2020 Still the best. 1/24/2021 Still the best Metronome, use it everyday!

Best metronome app ever!

Worth the money folks, just buy it

Amazing
Boss2069

I’ve been using this app since 2010 and I can’t imagine using another metronome! Have never had a problem with and can not recommend this app enough!

Good but missing one thing
Josh Payne

I wish this metronome app could make a way to have .5’s. I play a song that is 72.5 exactly but I have no way of using the click because 72 isn’t fast enough and 73 is too fast. If you can add that feature it would be the perfect metronome app.

Great!

Best metronome app out there!

Love this app
Art seeing

User friendly great sounds. Set it to a shuffle and displace the count allows me to hear and feel the click falling on which ever hand is hitting. Really helped my timing

Chats ?

My favorite metronome

I’ve been using Tempo for years and find it to be the best of any I’ve tried.

Best metronome ever
jason tiemann

I use it daily and recommend it to all of my students. What better than to have a comprehensive metronome and tuner within reach at all times. Perfect for musicians at all levels. Easy to use and customize to your needs.
