Metronome Time

Metronome Time is a free online metronome for students, teachers and professional musicians. It runs on the web, iOS and Android, with tempos from 25 to 240 BPM and time signatures from 1/4 to 12/4. The first beat of each measure is accented. Users can adjust volume, choose accent patterns, use visual-only cues, tap a tempo and control subdivisions. Practice tools include saved presets, practice tracking, daily streaks and a tempo trainer that gradually increases speed. Haptic feedback works on supported Android devices and Chrome browsers. After visiting the site, it can be installed as a Progressive Web App and used offline. Practice statistics, presets and settings are stored locally in the browser or device. The maker says the tool is designed primarily for practice and recommends checking it in the user’s own setup before live performance. Feedback and bug reports can be sent through the widget or contact form, with replies stated as taking 24–48 hours. Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity and Resend are used for listed analytics and contact-email functions.
