liveBPM - Beat Detector is a real-time tempo monitoring tool for musicians that uses the microphone to detect beats and display the current BPM, plus a live tempo curve for practice and performances. It ranks in the top 150 in multiple markets (PL, ES, JP) and has sustained momentum with 10,000+ total downloads and 250 downloads in the last 30 days.

Pros & Cons

  • Accurate beat detection with a dedicated engine, accurate to within 0.1 BPM under favorable conditions
  • Handles genres well when tempo is constant and beats are strongly defined
  • Tempo curve visualization with multiple zoom modes enables detailed timing analysis
  • Low battery drain due to high-performance, efficient algorithms
  • No built-in drum loops or tuner features, which some competitors offer
  • No tapping-based BPM counter option (focus is mic-based detection)
  • Lacks instrument-specific preset modes (e.g., guitar/piano tuners) compared to some rivals

Comments on liveBPM - Beat Detector for Android

★★★★☆ B S · Oct 20, 2025
This app works really well. I use it for practicing alone and in the band. A button to stop recording would be awesome. Then you could take your time to analyze your tempo fluctuations. And for tracking your long-term training progress the possibility to save or export data would be a nice to have.
★★★★★ Randy Koslosky · May 24, 2024
I have been so happy to have found this app. I had previously spent a bunch of money on a reverse metronome that didn't work well (which I then returned). Finding this app has been just great. Sometimes bands/drummers playing live to a metronome doesn't work well since once you are off, you are off. But, being able to see the tempo in real time makes that so easy. I highly recommend it for people who play live.
★★★★★ Sully Sullster · Oct 12, 2022
Works great as a speedometer when playing gigs. I put it on a cymbal stand w a clamp and tells me in real time if I'm rushing/ dragging etc. Also works great on anything with a tempo especially watching a band to see if the drummer is solid. Simple app that does what it says it does
★★★★☆ Gautham L · Apr 28, 2024
I have bought this app. Works well. I use it for scales practice. It helps re-assure me that I have been in-sync with the metronome on a sustained basis. However, there is one issue. It does not seem to work beyond 200 bpm !? Why ? This cannot be a limitation of the signal processing algorithms I suppose.
★☆☆☆☆ Matthew Rosett · Feb 25, 2023
The app doesn't work consistently. I check for updates and there are none. I contacted the developer and received no response in 7 days. Google refuses to refund my money. DON'T BUY FROM THIS DEVELOPER
★★☆☆☆ ও ও · May 17, 2023
For $4, you'd think this app would have any kind of features at all like tapping or selecting a part of the graph to get the exact BPM at that time, or tracking of the time, or an average of the detected BPM, or the ability to zoom to see BPM variations in greater detail. It does what it says, and does a mediocre job of it. In a world where most apps are free and feature-rich, this is just a $4 disappointment.
★★☆☆☆ Shushy · Oct 29, 2024
Two stars because every once in a while it actually does what it says it does.
