  • It’s Very Good

    It is very good, but just a little quirky. It takes a bit of plucking to get an acceptance. Nut a single pluck of a string gets you from way below, to way above an acceptance. Sometimes an acceptance comes very quickly, sometime not. But it is.a little disconcerting that plucking a string several times gets you a complete to the left, complete to the right, acceptance; even though you did not change the tone. At All.

  • Greatest tuner

    Just found out about this App I love it
    I can’t read music so have only ever played “by ear” just restrung my guitar and Fender made it so easy
  • Absolutely amazing!!!!!

    There are plenty of apps out there; Tuners, chord/scale, and the like. This app is BY FAR a the best. You get access to the most things—for FREE!! It blows my mind how amazing this app is, honestly. If you’ve used other apps and you haven’t tried this one yet, you’re in for such a great surprise for the things it makes available for you, and again, it’s FREE.

    Thank you so so much, Fender!! 🙏🏼🙇🏻🙌🏼

  • It’s great!

    The best tuning app I’ve used with the free option without having to pay for using the tuner. You can change to ukulele, bass, acoustic, the range of guitars. The features for the paid version look very good and there are free videos you can watch without the paid version that are informative.
    Love it!!

  • kinda annoying

    Hi, my name is Wren and I am ten years old. I have just started playing guitar and I needed a tuner. I got this one because it had top reviews. At first I thought that the app was not working because I didnt know how to use it, but now I realized it has some problems. First, it is annoying that you have to pay to have the good tuner. Like, you payed for the guitar so why have to pay for the app (or why would you have to pay for the good tuner). Second when you are using the tuner it is a pain on how you cant tell the app to tune one of the strings instead of it figuring it out (it dosnt even pick the right string). Third can I just say how unrealistic the chords are for this tuner than a real one. I once at home tuned it with the app then did a lesson and they had to fix the tuning( you might be thinking “dont you know it can go flat”. Yes I do know but it was the same pitches as when I tuned it at home). The app is not worth getting, just buy a real tuner.

    Im not trying to be rude to the creators I just want to warn people before they get the app. - Wren

  • Best tuner on the App Store

    This guitar tuner is reliable for every iOS update, does way more than just help you tune the guitar and does it without annoying ad pop up’s. And it’s free. It really shows you Fenders commitment to the music and the musicians. I tried a few others in the past because of their place in App Store mainly but I always come back to this one.
    If you’re a beginner or a pro, this is a must have app.

  • Overall a lot you can do, but ran into one issue

    I love that this app has lots of different tuning options, e.g. open tunings, and half step down for my vintage instruments. Overall has worked pretty great for me.

    Recently had one semi-major unfortunate experience that set me back though. Somehow after updating the app everything was tuning roughly a half step too sharp on all strings. I discovered this after lots of frustration and trying to get tuned in key with my harmonica. It was so tough to figure out what was going wrong. I even bought a new harmonica thinking mine was out of key. I’m sure Fender will find this software bug and fix it soon. So 5 stars since it’s the only drawback after years with the app

  • Missing simple stuff

    If you need to adjust the intonation of you guitar this tool won’t help as it will only measure your pitch against open strings, it would be better it it just showed the pitch of the note played rather than against an expected open string for instance when i play an E on 12th fret it tells me how close it is to an open D, guess ill try one of the other many tuning app until i find one that is simple enough to work for what i need.

  • Missing ‘Restore Purchase’ option on latest update

    This latest update is missing the restore purchase option for those who purchased the player pack or the individual features of the app, instead, it’s asking you to sign up / sign in to a free account to get all the extra features for a limited time, which I did just to unlock those extra features that I’ve already paid for years ago. Otherwise, the app is great. Can you please fix this on the next update?

    Edit:

    The developer response didn’t address the (minor issue) that I’m having, I’m asking for the restore purchase option, I already know that I can sign-up to get the upgrade for free, I said on my previous review that I have signed-up just to get the upgrade that I’ve already paid for years ago, my question is why do I have to sign-up for an account (even if it’s free) if I already paid for the upgrade? But I guess what I’m asking is pointless.

  • Great app with one annoying flaw

    I love this app and use it daily. I use mostly the rhythm beats for practicing (much better than a boring metronome). One item I would like to see fixed is the bpm selector button. After selecting the speed you want you have to hit a small arrow which enters that speed and goes back to the playing screen. The arrow is very small and if you don’t hit it exactly on center it changes the bpm to the maximum of 400. Then you have to start all over again. Fender - Please make the arrow bigger. Thank you.
