In their own words
Metronome Beats
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.
