CLEAN UI WITH MANY FEATURES
With only few buttons, features are accessed by gestures to avoid UI clutter. Swipe left or right to halve or double tempo respectively. Swipe up to bring up the "beats menu", swipe down to dismiss it.

VISUAL TICKING
The circle in the middle flashes on each beat. Each beat, then, is accompanied by a needle pin alternating sides which is a great visual representation of the metronome. You can disable both effects in the settings if you need only audible ticking and vice versa.

MULTIPLE WAYS TO SET TEMPO
Buttons change tempo by increments of 5 or 10. Tap in tempo by taping on the current beat number. Slider is "scrubbable" - drag up while sliding for more precise control. Also you can tap and hold the current tempo number to bring up a keyboard for manual input.

BEATS MENU
Tap any of the active (blue) buttons to set whether the coresponding beat should be accented. Tap and hold any of the buttons to set bar length. This allows you to quickly create complex rhythms like 13/8 while allowing to split it into groups based on your preference.

Feel free to contact me regarding any features you would like to change or add. I might add it in future updates. Also please report any bugs in case you find one :)
