Musicians recording practice takes on an iPhone
Worth noticing
The app lists a 40–240 BPM range and says takes are saved on the phone as AAC files, not uploaded.

Field notes

The page gives setup steps and explains that the metronome can continue with the screen locked. Tempo adjustments include ±1 and ±5 controls, and users can choose from two to six beats per bar with an accented downbeat. It says the microphone and output are shown on screen, recordings stay on the device, and an incoming call saves the recording so far before stopping the metronome.
