There are a few metronome cell phone apps that have a tap button. You tap the beat that you want and it tells you what bpm. Would that help?
No, I want something that will give me real-time readout of my current tempo. I want to see the speedometer while I'm driving.
Thanks for the thought though!

There is an app called "LiveBPM" (live beats per minute) that does just what you want.
I have seen pro drummers in concert using hardware devices that display their tempo based on a trigger on a drum, and have wanted something similar for myself. If this software works well it could be a hugely beneficial practice tool!
That app sounds interesting. I suppose it could analyze something like a BG chop if you're playing rhythm. For a melody line, you might need to set it on the floor, and have it listen to your foot tapping to get a regular beat.
We've used it in band rehearsals and it works well most of the time. It has been useful for identifying those spots where the tempo jumps up a notch so we know where we need to be careful.
fatt-dad, that sounds like a great tool. That kind of bio feed back training would work better for me than a metronome. if you find the app or a gizmo, please report back.
No matter where I go, there I am...Unless I'm running a little late.

I would be interested in something like that too. I say many times that the tempo is changing constantly and some say NO. Would be nice to know if it's me getting tired or the tempo changing.

And now there was no doubt that the trees were really moving - moving in and out through one another as if in a complicated country dance. ('And I suppose,' thought Lucy, 'when trees dance, it must be a very, very country dance indeed.')

DAWs like Ableton and Logic Pro have tools to analyze audio tracks so taht you can do global edits while keeping the imperfect, or deliberate, rubato effects. They're not completely automatic, with things like Live's Warp and Beat Mapping in Logic you have to mark the transients to use as beat markers. You might look in your DAW's manual

Back in the day there was a box called Russian Dragon, that would show if somebody was dragging or rushing,but doing search shows some folks remember it, but faded into time. Seems a good premise for an app.
the app that slipped through the cracks.
Thanks Tony! I'll google the Russian Dragon!
