Questions
How many taps do I need?
Two taps give a first estimate; 8 or more give a steady result. The reading uses your recent taps, so it follows tempo changes.
Why does the BPM look doubled or halved?
You may be tapping on every beat or every other beat. The half- and double-time values are shown so you can pick the right one.
Can I practise to this tempo?
Yes — open the metronome and set the same BPM.
