A metronome that
respects your practice.

A steady, even click for Android. Every subdivision and every time signature is free — the trainers, the setlist and the rest of the faces are one small purchase, once.

No ads No accounts No subscriptions Works offline No permission prompts

Everything Baton clicks ships inside the app. Every click sound is bundled on your device — nothing streams, nothing is collected. You won't see a runtime permission prompt.

The only times Baton touches the network are Google Play's billing for the one-time purchase, and casting to your TV if you use it. Read the whole privacy story →

Thirty seconds with Baton

The face, the subdivisions, the trainers and the setlist — all of it real screen capture from the released app.

A steady click, and everything around it

Baton is engineered for a steady, even click — the beat is scheduled on the audio clock itself, not a timer that wanders when your phone gets busy. The pendulum you see follows the sound you hear. Two taps from launch, you're practising.

Free, and not a demo

The practice tools other metronomes lock away are simply free here. The free tier is a complete metronome — there is no trial, no timer and no nag.

20 to 400 BPM

A dial you can scrub, coarse and fine steps either side, and a giant tap-tempo pad that reads your drumming and settles on the number you meant.

Every time signature

One to sixteen beats, over halves, quarters, eighths and sixteenths. 7/8 and 5/4 are as easy as 4/4.

All six subdivisions

Quarters, eighths, triplets, sixteenths, swing and offbeats — every one of them, free, in every time signature.

Per-beat accents

Tap any dot to cycle it: accented, normal, ghosted or silent. Build the bar your piece actually needs.

See it three ways

A swinging pendulum, a row of beat dots, and a full-screen flash — all on the audio clock, so what you see is what you hear.

Cast to the room

Send the click to your TV so the whole band can follow, or to a speaker for the PA. Casting is free for everyone.

Baton Pro

Four practice tools that push you, and the rest of the faces and click sounds. One purchase, once.

Speed trainer

Ramps the tempo a few BPM every few bars — set it from 80 to 160 and chase it, then hold at the top.

Gap trainer

Mutes whole bars while the visuals keep moving. Hold the time yourself, then check back in.

Polyrhythms

Three against four, or any pair up to twelve, with the counter-voice on its own sound so your ear learns to hold both.

Setlists

Save any face setup as a song — tempo, meter, subdivision, accents. Name it, order it, load it back with one tap. Fifty songs, on the device.

Eight click sounds

Classic and beep free; woodblock, sticks, cowbell, clave, hi-hat and marimba in Pro. Accent and beat are separately voiced in every pack.

Seven faces

Mahogany by default; ivory, brass, velvet, neon, graphite and glacier in Pro. Ivory and glacier are full daylight skins for sunlit rooms.
