I enjoy the app, but I feel that it has a lot of holes. If I have the metronome, in 4/4 time, play a measure of quarter notes, then leave 3 measures of rest it ends up dropping some beats in the measure that the click plays; it might play … 2 3 4 or 1 2 3 … adding a beat of silence when there should be a click. When it comes to options I feel like it should a greater range for tempo, it should go up to 400, it’s not necessary since no one needs quarters going and 400, half notes would be better, but it would be expected for the app to have a large range of tempos instead having to use, for example, 200bpm to imply half notes at 400bpm. Also when using a speaker it sometimes just plays a low drone, making restart the app until it functions properly. Show more

I love this app. This is something that I’ve been looking for for a long time. The design is super simple, and makes the app very easy to figure out. I love the changing color display as well. My only complaint is the lack of features. I hope in the future that more time signatures can be implemented, as well as more subdivisions in the “content” section. This would make the app all the more useful. It would be nice if you could add more than 8 bars as well. However, despite these downsides, the app is incredible, and such a great tool for any musician. Show more

This app would be wonderful if you could leave the app or lock your phone, and the metronome kept playing in the background. Sometimes I need to reference a photo of sheet music, save battery by locking my phone, or use the camera on my phone to record myself, and I’d love for the metronome to keep running when I do those things. Hoping this is an easy fix that gets added soon! Show more

This is a great app! By far Benny is one of the most influential drummers from the last decade. I do like the GAP concept and how it helps to improve timing and consistency. I just wonder if they can add a timer in the settings menu. As a musicians is crucial to work on a variety of things. And being able to keep on track how much time we focus on one specific thing, helps to improve time practicing. Show more

I really like the design of the app. It gives you everything you need in a metronome and then some. The customization of the sound is really nice, as well as the ability to add in silent bars. The only big issue is that you have to have the phone on in order to hear the metronome. It would be great if you could close your phone and still have the app running. Regardless, I’d recommend this app to anyone looking for a metronome application. Show more

Good concept. Sorely lack more more/custom time signatures. Hopefully they’ll update and fix this.

I started playing drums 5 years and 9 months ago. For the first 5 years and 4 months, I always practice with a metronome. In a way, I was limiting myself. A few months ago I was recommended to try to stretch myself a little bit and practice without one. That was great for me and my development, and a lot of fun. It also affords a lot of freedom and spontaneity, which is important. I noticed though that whenever I tried to go back to the metronome I’d find it boring. I just lost that connection with it, and I felt like I might just never again be interested in using a metronome. I saw Benny’s video on YouTube and figured ah, what the heck, I’ll get it. Have to say I have zero regrets because this thing is a blast and makes playing with a metronome fun, creative and challenging. The user interface is simple yet layered, and affords a ton of possibilities to the user. Additionally, the design is pleasing to look at so that’s never a bad thing. Overall, I highly recommend the Gap Click. I’m excited to finally be excited to use a metronome again, and I can see that this will really improve my groove and timing. Thanks Benny and your dev team! Show more

This isn’t the metronome to use when working on complex prog tunes with changing meters, but it wasn’t designed for that. I don’t expect this to be a full-featured metronome, and there are other apps for that. However, it would be nice if there were a wider selection of time signatures. I can’t imagine it being a big deal to give users the ability to simply type in the number of beats per measure, for anyone who sometimes plays in 11 or whatever. Also, the tempo only goes up to 250. The slightly imperfect workaround is to turn on 8th note clicks. If you play jazz, you can double the tempo by feeling the clicks as being on 2 and 4 only, although sadly I’m not used to that yet. That said, it’s great despite its limitations. It’s been fun and frustrating to discover just how unsteady my jazz ride pattern can get when I’m playing in the 300+ range, or how certain licks cause me to rush or drag. Show more

This app will quickly expose any timing issues you may have, which is great because then you’ll know what you need to work on! The UI I very simple and straightforward ?? definitely worth the price Show more

You can’t select anything but the most basic quarter note time signatures. You can select 7/4 but not 7/8. Don’t charge 3 bucks for an app that isn’t finished.
