Beat counter questions

What to know before you start tapping.

The counter averages up to your eight most recent intervals and converts that average duration into beats per minute.
Stability shows how consistent your recent intervals are. Drift compares the latest tap tempo with the current average; positive means faster and negative means slower.
No. It only measures when you press the tap pad and never requests microphone or audio-file access.
A pause longer than three seconds starts a fresh timing session so an old interval cannot distort the next BPM reading.
