UPDATE: As promised, changing my rating to 5* because the background issue is fixed and the metronome works perfectly now! Also the tip they provided to keep the screen awake was very helpful in the interim. Thanks again! ORIGINAL: Will change rating to 5 stars after the background bug is fixed. For now, I have Google Maps navigating somewhere with alerts off. This keeps the screen alive. But you MUST keep the Metronome App in the foreground as well...

Hi Matt, in Settings -> App settings there should be something called "Screen always on" that will do the job without Google Maps. Both of our Android engineers are urgently working on the background fix.

App used to be great, but now clogged with ads and subscription pushes for useless extras. The metronome now only plays for a bit and then stops, so I can't even get through a whole page of music now without having to stop and fiddle with the app to keep going. Put up with the ads for a long time, but I have to find something else because it's unusable now.

Hello, I am sorry we know about the background bug and are in the process of fixing it. We thought we already did, but it didn't work as expected. We're working on it. Regarding ads, we'll soon ship a feature (for Plus subscribers) to hide all ads. We are sorry for the recent instability but we'll promise we get back on track.

Won't connect to a core steel 2. I have the latest app version (1.29.2) on a modern android device (pixel 7 pro), with all updates installed and the app given free reign with no restrictions on my device. The fact that I have to connect through this app is ridiculous, given that the app refuses to connect to the watch. The watch was also 250$ and won't do anything without the app connected to it. What a paper weight, this is beyond frustrating. Devs: contact me because I've tried reaching out.

We are in the process of re-writing our apps Bluetooth connectivity from the ground up and hope we can release this soon. Unfortunately very hard to test so many different Android manufacturers but we'll get there.
