Easy Metronome vs MetroGnome

Easy Metronome provides a steady beat for music practice, lessons, and live performance. Tempo ranges from 1 to 999 BPM and can be entered as a whole number or decimal, or set by tapping along. Beat controls allow 1–16 beats per bar, 12 time signature presets, subdivisions, and adjustable emphasis for each beat. Included sounds are digital, drum, metronome, sine, and wooden block; additional sound packs are optional in-app purchases.

The practice timer can run for up to 9 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds. Visual options include up to 12 light and dark themes, with wallpaper-colour matching on Android 13 and later. The app is listed for Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows. The maker also lists support for phones, tablets, Chromebooks, Mac, Wear OS, and Apple Watch, plus tiles, widgets, and shortcuts. Playback can start via Bluetooth or ignore Bluetooth start requests. The maker says no account or sign-up is required and there are no interrupting ads. Easy Metronome was founded in 2012 and is headquartered in Quebec, Canada.

MetroGnome is an iPhone and iPad app combining a metronome, rhythm-pattern editor, and instrument tuner. Its metronome runs from 20 to 300 BPM and offers tap tempo, customizable meters, subdivisions, nine synthesized tick sounds, and live beat accents ranging from strong to silent. Eleven flamenco palos include traditional accent cycles that can be edited during playback. The pattern editor supports unlimited measures, mixed time signatures, rests, tuplets, repeats, tempo changes, and real staff notation. The tuner covers 60 instrument tunings across five families, plus chromatic Any Note mode and 16 historical reference pitches such as Baroque A=415 and Verdi's A=432. These tools run on-device and offline without an account or login, while clicks continue with the screen locked or another app open. The maker says tuner audio is analyzed in memory and not recorded, stored, or transmitted. iOS 17 or later is required; Android is coming soon.
