TouchTempo is a fully featured metronome that you can operate without having to look away from your music. Tap the screen anywhere to turn the metronome on and off. Swipe up or down to adjust the tempo. Tap with two fingers to subdivide. All without picking up your phone.

It may not seem like much, but when tackling some tricky new music, youre going to have to adjust the tempo. A lot. Instead of fiddling with your metronome every time, TouchTempo lets you just flick your finger and move on, without interrupting the flow of your practice.

TouchTempo Features:

- Simple and elegant gesture based interface
- Tap anywhere on the screen to turn metronome on/off
- Adjust tempo by 5/10 BPM (customizable) by swiping up or down with one or two fingers
- Subdivide by tapping anywhere on the screen with two fingers
- No need to muck around with a long list of mostly unnecessary time signatures,
  just select the number of beats in the measure and how to divide them
- Tap and hold the BPM area to set the tempo manually
- Four different sound sets (classic / retro / digital / acoustic)
- Learn your music faster and with less frustration!

"I just used it to practice a piece and the ease of swiping and tapping made all the difference!" - Dr. Bridget Moriarty (professor of music, professional singer and accompanist)
