Tempist
Metronome, tap tempo, and tuner
One free app for practice and rehearsal. No account, no ads, and it works offline.
Coming soon to the App Store
For iPhone, iOS 17 or later.
Three tools
Keep time, find the tempo, tune up
Metronome
- 20 to 300 BPM, with the tempo name from Grave to Presto
- Change the tempo while it plays without losing your place in the bar
- Time signatures 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 5/4, 6/8, and 7/8
- Tap any beat to make it strong, normal, or silent
- Subdivide each beat in two, three, or four
- Optional one-bar count-in
Tap tempo
- Tap along to find the tempo of any song
- See how many taps you made and how even they are, so you know when the reading is steady
- Send the result straight to the metronome
Tuner
- Chromatic tuner with note, octave, cents, and frequency
- Note letter large enough to read from the music stand
- Set the reference pitch (A4) from 432 to 446 Hz
Free and private
Nothing to sign up for, nothing to buy
- Small
- Metronome, tap tempo, and tuner, each doing one job well. Nothing else.
- Free
- No ads, no subscription, and no in-app purchases.
- Private
- No tracking and no account. The microphone is used only by the tuner, and the sound is not recorded or sent anywhere.
Why we built this
Tempist was built for the music students in my local community. It gets out of the way, and it isn't trying to get anything out of them.
