Metronome Beats vs Metronome Time

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.

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.
