Gold Standard!
This is the gold standard of tuners. You can tune a piano with this puppy. I prefer this to many of my high-priced digital and analog tuners that cost hundreds of dollars. I’ve been using this for five years, and I couldn’t count a single thing I could do without in musical performance with my best guitars, short of this one elegant iPhone app. Enjoy! Best of the Best!

Ok, but not great really
Nice tuner.... Sometimes. Sometimes it's stable, but all too often it gyrates wildly trying to figure out what tone it's hearing, as opposed to other tuners which never seem to have this crazy problem. Otherwise nice aesthetic UI, and the chromatic wheel tuner is nice and easy to read. Great for just wanting to know what note a sound is, like for singing. Just wish the dev could fix the instability issues which keep cropping up too often for me.

Great App
Cleartune is very helpful for people on the go. It works perfectly and hits every note. I use it on a regular basis with no problems. Definitely the app for people in need of a tuner. I believe that it does not work well on iPad, as well as older devices. If you have a phone that is quite out of date, I believe your results will vary. If this is not the case, this app will be a BIG help.

Great app, but...
This app hasn't been working since I got an iPhone 5C (hence an OS upgrade). I tried everything to get it to work, and finally tonight I found their Facebook page and the solution. Why isn't it posted here?? It's a great app, but this info should be posted clearly in the app description here.
Next, the developers should work on a port of the old application called "Intonation Trainer"--a great program that was marketed incorrectly that I found indispensable for teaching students how to tune chords and intervals and to make an intonation map when evaluating new horns. I think these guys could make a really elegant version.
If they edit this page, I will happily add that final star….

Responsive, accurate and easy to use
After several years this is still the tuner I use. I’ve tried some others but they are either not as accurate or are difficult to use.
This one actually works properly!!
I downloaded three different ‘Free’ Apps for Guitar Tuners, and none of them worked properly on my phone. All three were also plagued by pop-up ads and scrolling banner ads. So I decided to get a proper App and pay for it.
Well - Cleartune Cromatic Tuner is the business. As a musician for the past 50 years my hearing is dropping off and I needed a tuner to get my guitar perfectly tuned.
On my old iPhone3GS the program runs well, and the mic in the phone picks up the strings of the guitar either through the amplifier and speaker, or (with the case removed to get a slight vibration from the body) direct from the guitar without the amp!
I cannot fault this App - it is great

Outstanding Tuner
This makes tuning my harpsichord relatively simple. I especially like the pointer that turns green when you are just a few cents away, and the feature that keeps the tool running for the whole tuning session, so you don't have to keep swiping the iPad screen to keep the device from going to sleep. Outstanding!

Fantastic! Really useful :D
I find that this tuner is very accurate for my trumpet, and the options make it very easy to switch from tuning my trumpet, to tuning my bass for jazz band. Or my guitar when I'm at home. It has plenty of other options I should know how to use, but I really don't, know... Tons of useful stuff for anyone who does know though!!!

Spot on
This app was recommended by multiple musician friends who said they don't even use actual tuners now they have this. Have found it to be brilliant for my Cello.
A great tuner
I have had no problems with the tuner, and our band director used it for about 3 years until he wanted a more feature-filled app. (I don't blame him considering that he used his phone to tune, record, and act as a metronome.)
As a bassist, sometimes it's hard for me to tell when I'm out of tune, especially on the E string. I have always gotten it down to a T when tuning using this.
For guitar and bass players (maybe all string instruments?), my other strings tend to ring out when I tune, and that causes the app to spin pretty badly. As long as all my other strings are muted, it works fine.
For those rating it very lowly because it's not working: Have you tried using another person's phone/iPod? I watched a friend of mine use this to tune a piano and his trumpet.
