MetroGnome vs Metronome Beats

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 The tuner covers 60 instrument tunings across five families, plus chromatic Any Note mode and 16 historical reference pitches such as Baroque A=415 and Verdi's A=432.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.

Metronome Beats plays a regular beat at a chosen tempo, mainly to help musicians keep time while practising or playing. The web app lets users set BPM, beats per bar, and clicks per beat, and adjust tempo in one- or five-BPM steps. It supports varied time signatures, including compound time, and beat subdivisions that do not assume every beat is a quarter note. Mobile apps add tap tempo and a speed trainer that changes tempo gradually by bars or seconds. The app also includes programmable drum patterns, multiple kits, and mixer controls. Pro adds setlists, songs with configurable sections, and a Live mode for moving through songs during practice or performance. The maker also describes uses for running, golf practice, and breathing exercises. Metronome Beats is available on Android, iOS, macOS, and the web. The free app costs nothing and contains ads and in-app purchases. The listed iOS Pro purchase costs 8.99 USD once; Android and iOS purchases are separate. The free Android version displays personalized ads.
