Field notes
The app reads tempo tags or analyzes audio on the phone, then compares tracks with cadence measured by motion sensors. Its FAQ notes that phone placement matters, and offers manual tempo-range setting for treadmill use or when the phone is in a bag. The page lists MP3, FLAC, Ogg, Opus, M4A, and WAV support, and says later scans skip tracks that have not changed.
