Description
Helix Tuner is a completely new way to tune your instrument. Unlike all other tuning apps, it does not detect your pitch at all. Instead, it combines the sound coming into the microphone with the desired tuning pitch to create a beautiful interference pattern on the screen. The interaction between your sound and the reference pitch creates an optical illusion of motion when your note is sharp or flat, and it appears stable when you're in tune.
If you are tired of digital tuners that jump around erratically, have slow or delayed response to changes in your tuning, or in general just don't give you good tuning information, then Helix Tuner is the one you are looking for.
When you manually select the tuning note, as opposed to letting the app detect it automatically, Helix Tuner is extremely resistant to background noise and higher string harmonics that confuse other tuners, causing them to jump around to higher notes and give wrong tuning information. Because the visualization system naturally responds more clearly to sounds near the selected tuning pitch, it is useful even when other musicians are playing nearby.

Ratings and Reviews
Music is heavenly now.
You likely heard the adage, "it was like I took a blanket off my monitors". This tuner had the same effect on my guitar in the room. It's amazing what effect a tight tuning spec can have on complex chords, but the real test is hearing simple triads sound so sweet. The psychoacoustics actually come to mind (what did you just call me?) Helix tuner makes the popular clip on tuner sound... Well just saying well worth dealing with your phone. Automatic mode it's so simple. Just turn it on and forget it.
Actually....better...?
Coming from a high action freak - this is the only “tuner” that gets me anywhere near this close to spot-on in tune across the fretboard. I don’t get how or why but it’s amazing. If this developer ever finds a way to get this pre-loaded onto a future Snark tuner or something through some sort of partnership, I’ll be first in line to buy. The only downside is that it’s on my phone and not a clip-on!
Absolutely amazing
I hope other people get a chance to try this tuner out. Incredibly helpful for me as a trumpet player. This is all I need for intonation practice. I love the minimal design and the beautiful visuals. It’s made playing long tones a kind of fun game where the goal is to keep the circle from spinning one way or the other
