Can’t start the free tests

I put the phone on the platter and spun it a few times, but it wasn’t doing anything, none of the numbers were changing and there wasn’t any chart. It was frozen at 33.33, and there doesn’t seem to be any button to start the tests either.

I’m not sure if my phone is just lacking the gyroscope, but it seems to know when it’s spinning as the display follows.

It’s really frustrating, especially when I only need the one test and am not willing to upgrade for things I don’t need.

Response from developer

It sounds like your gyro is frozen, I would suggest powering down the phone and on again for a full reset. The spinning display is driven by the compass/magnetometer. I hope that helps.

Pricey rip-off

The app works well, but use it more than a few times and you’ll need to plop down 20 bucks, which is outrageous.

Reasonable app but there are better alternatives.

This app does as claimed but there are better alternatives that are both free and appear to be more accurate. The database feature I’m sure is great but for the majority of us, there’s little interest in comparing our figures against the rest, I only wanted to compare mine to the manufacturer spec and the wow figures were not reported in a way I could compare.

Love the app but it won’t let me save any more

Got a new turntable, and wanted to save it to my history and share it to the database. But for some reason, my app no longer allows me to save new turntable data. I deleted a bunch of the duplicates I had submitted thinking I might’ve reached my limit, but that’s not the case, because even with just a few measurements in my history, it no longer allows me to save new measurements. I’m sure it’s just a short term bug.

Hi, can you contact me directly (see info screen in app) with more information on this, do you see a message? There is no limit on the upgraded version. Thanks, Phil

Very accurate on my iPhone 12 Pro Max

I used this app and a strobe disk. When I got the strobe disk dialed right in, I double checked with this app, and it showed 33.35 and a wow/flutter of 0.22% which seems accurate to my ears. I don't think I'd pay $20 for the full version though, maybe $5.

Good app but ask for money not good

I have this app for almost a year now the asking for money I don’t like to pay for something not necessary that’s not good business

Response from developer

So you’ve used the app for a year! And it’s not necessary? No problem, don’t buy it.

Wow

Listen, it’s fine for a one-and-done type deal. However, I needed way more than 10 spins, and $20 is an insane amount of money for an app I’ll only use on occasion. At this point the developers are just greedy

Obnoxious Paywall

The app doesn’t for long enough to be useful before it interrupts and tries to get you to buy the app, over and over and over again. So obnoxious. Deleted.

Annoying to use

Good detection but the moment the rpm reaches 35rpm, the app pauses the reading to tell you “success” - not a a success if you are trying to hit 33rpm. If you are trying to calibrate your turntable, this app is annoying to use..

POP UPS!!! ☠️☠️☠️

As if this wasn’t an annoying process already, the incessant pop ups made me want to rip my hair out. After every step there are two pop ups. Save yourselves the aggravation and choose a different app!!!
