Smartronome App

The hybrid mobile app “Smartronome” is designed to help musicians improve their sense of rhythm. To this end, the app includes various features that allow users to set and control different metronome sounds. It also offers the option to play along with various preset drum loops while simultaneously recording the resulting melodies. The built-in recording function can be used at all levels of the app, for example, to record the metronome’s set tempo. In addition, the app offers three different touchpad categories. Each category comprises eight sounds, and pressing the individual pads generates tones in time with the metronome. The touchpad categories are designed to help users playfully improve and learn timing, concentration, and a sense of rhythm. The app was developed as part of the “Interactive Applications” course during the fifth semester.
