Doesn't keep playing in background

This app is worthless because it stops playing sound when you switch away from it, even with the "Keep Alive" setting enabled in the app. How am I supposed to switch to my RTA app to analyze the results of piping the tones through my PA if this app stops making sound when I switch away from it?!?

Best frequency generator ever.Let me start off by saying that I have used all of the tone gens and none of them do what this one does. Paid apps included. If you don't know audio this app could be a bit overwhelming at first but the UI is just so simple, I love it.Seriously, I've used them all, I just wish you would expand the range down to 5 Hz. I know the current generation iDevice's DACs don't go up past 22,000 without immense amounts of drop off but it would be nice if you push that up to 30,000. After all when you get into great audio systems this is really what separates the boys from the men.Best app ever! Highly reccommend! GET IT GET IT GET IT!

Didn't like the UI

The app worked but I didn't find like the user interface. Changing frequencies was a pain. The slider was linear instead of logarithmic, making it impractical since the most useful frequencies are crammed together in a small part of the slider. I'm resuming my search for a useful tone generator.

You supposed to use the touch sensirive surface to select the frequency sliding each digit up or down. It really doesn't get any easier.

As a retired Broadcast Engineer, I can use this app along with my iPhone 5 as an audio frequency generator. With the appropriate audio cable plugged into my phone, I can do a freq run into my audio console (mixing board).The app is very handy & convenient!
