True Metronome
True Metronome is a metronome app for musicians, with a pendulum display, Italian tempo markings, and natural reverb sound. It supports tempos from 20 to 400 BPM, custom time signatures, and subdivision control. Its frame-accurate audio engine is designed for precise timing, while practice tracking displays daily, weekly, and monthly progress. Beat Detection uses a microphone to identify tempo from an audio source in real time. The maker says this processing happens on the device and audio is never recorded, stored, or transmitted. The web version works in modern browsers without a download and includes tap tempo and pendulum animation. The free version requires no account and has no ads during practice, but free users can use Tap Tempo up to five times per day. Free includes two skins and one bell accent. True Metronome Pro costs 9.99 USD once and adds unlimited Tap Tempo, a Tempo Trainer, live tempo detection, presets, more subdivision patterns, and other features. A special skin costs 0.99 USD once. The app is available on Android, iOS, macOS, and web.
