BPM-Detector

My friend and I use different BPM apps. This one gives a different BPM than the others... And its wrong. I don't know if the phone could effect this, the version, IDK. But this app simply does not work properly. My phone: HTC one vx, Jelly Bean

Sorry guys, great idea but the app seems to pickup sounds other than beats and thinks they're beats. New Order - Tutti Frutti 177bpm according to your app. I don't know the actual bpm for the song but 177 is wildly out.

Doesn't seem to work very well on my g3.

I tried, but how is this thing supposed to differentiate between 8th at 100 or quarter notes at 200? ...... Also where is the love for the punk fans where many songs exceed 20p BMP?????

The algorithm is really effective, it gets the BPM right even when the volume is low, in a noisy room, with tracks that don't have a strong bass... Amazing good.

I really like it especially the nerd mode. However it would be cool to be able to detect e.g. faster tekno tracks, please add that.

Now it skips and freezes my music when I use it... Please fix... Samsung Galaxy s4...

Keeps changing back and forth and sometimes doesn't even give a bpm.

I am using this on every dancefloor to verify that the dj is too slow again ;)

set the range to 100-200 BPMs and multyliply the output by 2 if the track is up to 400, by 4 if it's more than 400, etc

Might not be perfect, but good for closing in on a bpm for a starting point.

Not at all accurate.

It doesn't work very well for me, probably because of my instruments (fiddle, flute, accordion) that don't usually have the "strong beat" that the description recommends. I found that it spent most of its time trying to figure out my speed, would display a number, and then erase it quickly. The number also jumped around wildly. I tried it out with a few friends, and while they agreed that I was playing with a clear rhythm, my (android) phone wasn't very good at getting the beat right. It worked pretty will with a friend's guitar, though, and I also tried it with my mandolin, which worked. But if you have a "smooth" instrument, you probably won't find it very useful. And it does use a lot of battery.

Played with it for a few minutes. Couldn't figure out how to access the menu or settings. I wanted to try out the nerd mode to understand why it was getting random readings unrelated to what I thought I could hear, but I could not figure out how to do that. The only control I found was to toggle between two BPM ranges, but that didn't seem to do much. Even with no music around, it seems to detect random BPMs. Confused. Perhaps following more of the standard Google Design Principles (or Material Design) would make things easier to understand.

Works pretty well especially for a free app, has been on point or very close every time

The numbers are completely random. The application uses to microphone to gather data.

I tested the app with a digital metronome, and it works very well -- generally to an accuracy of plus or minus 1 BPM. The option to switch between two different ranges is quite nice and improves the accuracy -- as long as the tempo stays away from the endpoints of the selected range. Unfortunately, I cannot see any way to display the spectrogram, open the app options, or get an ad-free version (if one exists). Where is all this hidden?

Hello it's me I have been wondering to say this is incredible app i always wanted this app it really helps me to find Bpm of the song you save me time thank you for this u have change my direction thanks

I really like it especially the nerd mode. However it would be cool to be able to detect e.g. faster tekno tracks, please add that.

Clapping fingers at rate <60 shows 120 (no other sound at all).

Handy app for quick detection

Not totally accurate but good enough for what I wanted to use it for. Gives a general idea of the bpm. Very useful.

It works!Very helpful.

Simply listens and counts the beats. Works well in the ranges 99-194 beats. Great for setting up a clock and getting it into beat. I can also use this app to potentially work out how many seconds a clock is loosing or gaining. Certainly better than other apps I've tried. If it included one decimal place reading, I would give this 5*.

I tried, but how is this thing supposed to differentiate between 8th at 100 or quarter notes at 200?

It may work well for some music, but shows wildly different bpm every few seconds during the same song. Back to tapping.

Now I can kinda determine the bpm of deadmau5 lol

I tried touching the app using an thick cloth and still it gives an pulse which is fluctuating (the call was kept on my desk)....

Needs to have a good looking ui

Now it skips and freezes my music when I use it... Please fix... Samsung Galaxy s4...

The bpm is keep jumping around? Font which one is correct

Totally useless

Thanks to this amazing app I discovered that my kitchen tap drips at 140bpm! Amazing insights :)

FINALLY! somebody understands the difference between a detector and a tap-it-urself button. If u can use a calculator u can figure out bpm easily enough (roughly). This does what I need it to, quick and dirty. GREAT!!!

Sometimes shuts down for no reason but I blame my slack phone

I use this to make sure that Trance DJs are playing at 138 bpm or more. :-P

Choose bpm range....done...it does the rest!

Beat measurement is a tricky thing to automate. It gets basic beats right. But it takes long and sometimes jump around

Its great mate the only thing is I dont know how to use the microphone on my tablet
