App Store Description

** Now free for a limited time! **

FitBeat is a powerful music player built specifically for runners and fitness enthusiasts. It automatically synchronizes the tempo of your music to your exercise motion, giving you a significant and natural performance boost. Research shows that exercising to the beat can improve endurance nearly 15% while making it more enjoyable too!

Unlike other music exercise apps, FitBeat constantly senses your movement and follows YOU rather than forcing you to follow the music. No speeds to enter in, no patronizing “fitness coaches” to annoy you. Just you and your music at your own natural tempo.

FitBeat doesn't just pick songs from your library that are close your tempo either--it dynamically adapts the audio playback of virtually any song* to fit your pace. Got a bunch of great songs that are a bit too slow for your stride rate? Let FitBeat bump them up to the perfect speed for you.

FitBeat also displays your exercise stats in large displays, optimized for outdoor visibility. Using GPS or WiFi it can calculate: Elapsed time, distance, average speed, pace, elevation gain and calories burned. Plus, graph your stats and share them with friends on Twitter.

FitBeat uses the same professional-quality audio stretching algorithms used in broadcast and high-end recording studios. This ensures that the music will sound great at any speed, with no “chipmunk” effect or “warbling” typically heard with inferior audio processing. In addition, our Select by Pace feature automatically selects music by finding songs with tempos close to your exercise cadence to avoid extreme audio stretching/compressing.

Features

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
