Setlist Metronome
What it is
Setlist Metronome is a free iOS metronome for gigging bands that stores song tempos and time signatures in performance setlists. Each beat produces an audible click and a white screen pulse. Songs can use a BPM, 4/4, 3/4, or 6/8 time signature, plus no count-in, one-bar, or two-bar count-ins. Users can create setlists, add songs from a shared library, reorder them, and duplicate a setlist. Page-turner Bluetooth pedals work in Mode 5 (Space/Enter): the left pedal selects the previous song and the right selects the next, with fixed mapping. The app works offline without an account or internet connection. Songs, setlists, settings, and pedal mappings remain in a local SQLite database with no external backup. It does not collect, transmit, or share personal information and includes no analytics, telemetry, third-party trackers, or advertising. Setlists do not sync between band members, and import and export are unavailable. Bluetooth headphones add latency; there is no correction setting yet.
For and against
For
- Free plan includes current features
- Works offline without an account
- Supports three listed time signatures

The verdict
Setlist Metronome provides focused tempo and setlist control for iOS performances, with offline storage and pedal support. Its lack of synchronization, export, and latency correction matters for bands sharing arrangements or using Bluetooth audio.
Who it suits
It suits iOS musicians and gigging bands that need offline song tempos, count-ins, and setlist playback. It is useful for performers comfortable storing data only on one device.
