Ukulele Tuner - Simple Tuner
Tuner for Ukulele
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Best of both worlds for ukulele: precise high-G G C E A pitch guidance and recorded references. Follow notes through some background noise.
Make every strum start in tune. Ukulele Tuner puts your G C E A strings, reference sounds and a clear pitch needle together in one focused check. Its pitch tracker follows a sustained plucked string through some background noise, helping you make small, confident adjustments.
Know your tuning
Use Ukulele Tuner with soprano, concert or tenor instruments set up for re-entrant high-G tuning. The configured notes are G4, C4, E4 and A4: the G string is higher in pitch than the C string. This setup is different from low-G or baritone tuning.
- See the detected note, octave and frequency.
- Follow visual feedback for sharp or flat pitch.
- Tap a string button to hear its reference sound.
- Compare what you hear with the note on the screen.
Precision you can see
Ukulele Tuner shows the note, octave and frequency in hertz. Its cent-based needle helps you move from “almost there” to in tune with small, accurate adjustments. When the sound is too uncertain, the detector waits for a clearer note instead of guessing. Get the best of both approaches: follow the needle or tap a recorded reference and tune by ear.
A simple way to tune by ear
Listen to a reference, pluck the matching string, and make a small adjustment. Ukulele Tuner gives beginners and returning players both a sound to compare and a visual pitch check before practice.
Chromatic mode and A4 settings
Switch to chromatic mode when you want to follow other notes. Set the pitch-detection A4 reference between 430 and 450 Hz, including 432, 440 and 442 Hz. The recorded G C E A sounds are fixed references; they do not change pitch with the A4 setting.
Get ready for your next song
Allow microphone access and play one string at a time. For your most accurate reading, let one string ring clearly near the microphone. If nearby noise drowns out your ukulele, move closer or find a quieter spot. Let the note ring while you watch the needle. Open Ukulele Tuner for a focused high-G check before your next song.
Built on tuner experience
Our tuner apps have helped millions of users. Ukulele Tuner brings that experience to a focused high-G tuning check.
Four strings, a steadier start and more time for your next song. This update refreshes your ukulele tuning experience with smoother pitch feedback and new reference sounds.
- Improved pitch tracking: the updated tuning engine follows more sustained notes through some background noise and waits for a clearer note when the sound is uncertain.
- Steadier tuning guidance: smoother sharp and flat feedback reduces distracting needle jumps, helping you make small, precise adjustments before you strum.
- Refreshed ukulele reference tones: tap the G, C, E and A string buttons to hear the updated sounds for standard high-G GCEA tuning and compare your strings by ear.
- Better reference playback on iPhone and iPad: fixed an issue that made string sounds play too quietly.
- More reliable audio when switching apps: microphone tuning pauses when you leave and resumes when you return with microphone permission. Reference tones now stop when the app leaves the foreground.
- A focused first launch: new installations open in ukulele mode. Chromatic mode is still available, and your saved mode is remembered.
Get the best of both approaches: tune by ear, then check the needle. Pluck one string at a time, let it ring and bring your next chord to life.
