MagicBPM: Tempo & Metronome

New in the metronome: subdivisions, compound time, and 12 Pro click sounds. Plus the live BPM detector: point it at any song for its tempo, or tap Identify to name it.

Know the tempo of any song. And its name. Instantly.

MagicBPM listens through your iPhone's microphone and measures the BPM (beats per minute) of whatever's playing, in real time. Point it at a speaker, an instrument, or a record, and watch the tempo lock in. Tap Identify and Apple's music recognition puts a name to the track. When you need to keep time yourself, switch to the built-in metronome.

FIND THE TEMPO • Live BPM detection: a dual-engine detector (autocorrelation + onset peak-picking) tuned for real music, so you get a confident reading even in a noisy room. A confidence indicator tells you when the reading is solid. • Half and double tempo: some songs can be felt two ways. Flip the reading to half or double time with one tap under the number, and MagicBPM hints which alternative is likelier. • Live tempogram: a scrolling heatmap of tempo over time. See the beat strengthen, drift, or shift between sections at a glance. • Tap tempo: nothing playing? Tap along and MagicBPM averages your taps into a steady BPM. • Dial it in: set a tempo range, pick a detection engine, choose a capture mode, and tune the noise gate to match your environment.

NAME THE SONG • Tap Identify while you listen and MagicBPM names what's playing, powered by Apple's music recognition. • See the title, artist, and cover art right next to the live BPM, and open the song in Apple Music with a tap.

KEEP THE BEAT • Built-in metronome: set a tempo by tapping, typing, or nudging it ±1, then press play for a rock-steady click. Eight time signatures with an accented downbeat, and it keeps playing even with the ringer on silent. • Subdivisions: practice against eighths, triplets, or sixteenths, with the in-between clicks pitched under the beat so you never lose the pulse. Free for everyone. • Compound time that counts properly: 6/8, 9/8 and 12/8 group in threes, and 7/8 lets you pick 2+2+3 or 3+2+2. • Vibrate on beat: feel every tick as a haptic tap, with a firmer pulse on the accented downbeat. Great when a click is hard to hear.

FREE, WITH AN OPTIONAL PRO UPGRADE MagicBPM is free and supported by ads. MagicBPM Pro is a single one-time purchase. No subscription, ever. Pro adds: • Live song detection: songs are identified automatically as they play. Hands-free, no tapping. • Detected Songs history: every song you identify is saved on your iPhone with its BPM and artwork. Pro unlocks the list, and opens any track in Apple Music. • Twelve metronome sounds: woodblock, claves, xylophone, cowbell, bass guitar, hi-hat, tambourine, shaker, triangle and more, alongside the standard acoustic click. Preview every one before you buy. • Ad-free: removes every ad from the app. Restore your purchase anytime on any device signed in to your Apple Account.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Tempo detection happens entirely on your iPhone. Your microphone audio is analyzed in real time and discarded. It is never recorded or uploaded. • Song identification, when you use it, sends a compact acoustic fingerprint of the sound, never the audio itself, to Apple's Shazam service to name the track. • Songs you identify are saved to your Detected Songs history on your iPhone and nowhere else. You can clear the list at any time, Pro or not. • No account, no sign-in.

MADE FOR Musicians, DJs, drummers, dancers, producers, and anyone who needs to find a tempo, keep it, or put a name to what's playing.
