Description

Do you need a simple way to integrate pacing cues and repetitive audio stimulation in your Gait Training sessions? Walk Better helps individuals with motor deficits independently operate the metronome with the help of large buttons and safety locks that prevent accidental taps.

Once the BPM is picked, the extra-large Start/Stop button is the only active button. The entire app is just one screen with no way to accidentally end up on a different screen. It's as simple as launch-and-go.

The Metronome uses a loud "Ping" that is both pleasant and audible from a distance. It works even with the device locked and in the pocket. Alternatively, the device can be placed with the app open on a nearby table or chair. The screen will remain on the app and will not fade or lock itself automatically.

While the app is best used with a qualified therapist, it is also designed to be used easily by individuals to help meet their therapy goals in independent settings outside the therapist's office.
