Every feature exists for one reason: to keep your hands on the instrument and your eyes off the screen.
Tap the central pulse circle to start and stop. No reaching for buttons at the bottom of the screen.
Set a floor, a ceiling, and how often the tempo should climb. Perfect for progressively pushing your speed limit. Free tier: 2-minute trial sessions. Lifetime unlock: unlimited.
See exactly how long your auto-increment routine will take before you press play.
A monotonic-clock scheduler keeps every beat locked to BPM, even over long sessions.
Your BPM, mode, and auto-increment preferences live only on your device — never on a server we run.
High-contrast, generous whitespace, and subtle neon accents that don't fight stage lighting.
Crisp, peak-loud click samples that stay audible even alongside a podcast or backing track.
One app. Two tiers. No subscriptions, ever.

The metronome gnome is a distraction-free precision metronome for iOS. It does one thing — keep your time — and does it beautifully. There is no sign-up, no profile, and no cloud sync. Every preference lives locally on your device.
Two modes cover virtually every practice scenario. Static mode is the classic metronome with a single BPM. Auto-increment mode raises the tempo gradually — by a chosen step every N beats — and wraps back to the floor when it reaches the ceiling. The app shows you the projected session length the moment you set up the ramp.
Built by musicians who wanted a focused, beautifully crafted metronome — without the clutter.
