Ratings & Reviews

  • This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

Tuning made easier, especially for strings and young players: • Shows in tune sooner, with a fairer window for bowed, blown and sung notes • A tune-up checklist: each string gets a tick once it's in tune • Play another string and the tuner follows, even after you've tapped one • A scale that magnifies the centre, so small turns move the needle • Simple tuner (Settings): just the note, the needle and your strings • Hz shows the note you're aiming for; cents and Hz can be hidden
