Love it, hoping for playback improvement

I have found a lot of great use for this application as I am a double bass player. I just wished that it would allow the playback drone over Bluetooth. As it stands, I can only hear the drones from my tiny little iPhone speakers (bad for low frequencies) or through headphones. If this issue could be resolved it would make it the perfect application for me and I am sure many others.

Great in the past, terrible now!

Use to be the perfect tuner. Not updated so laggy and occasional freezes. Shame.

Okay

I am not a teacher, or professional musician, I play a guitar for the joy it gives me. This app is great, when it works. It tunes precisely, but suddenly gets stuck on one note. There is nothing I can do to force the needle to move again. It is incredibly frustrating.
I went to the App Store to see if there has been an upgrade, but it appears that nothing has been done to repair this in two years.
Please please repair this App.

Buggy

I’ve been using this app for a while for pipe organ tuning. Its ability to do temperaments is great, however today when I tried to tune to A415 Neidhardt Kleine Stadt, this preset had disappeared and the A415 setting kept reverting to A440. I’m trying to get an organ tuned for a performance and now I am screwed. Two stars for past usefulness but this is really a problem. I’d say use this app with great caution because it is unstable and features that once worked have ceased to. I wouldn’t call it dependable. Sadly for what I do there is no other adequate app. What are we supposed to do? No app with the temperament features, and the one that has them doesn’t work!! Frustrated.

Frustrating

Have to be honest, I’ve spent hours each evening for a week trying to get this to work, without any success.
It seems to remain perpetually locked - that is, the red padlock icon will go white briefly, but then disappears. Consequently, the spinning dial doesn’t move. Pretty pointless when I’m trying to see if I’m sharp or flat or, indeed, where I’m sounding on the scale at all.
Maybe I need to pay more to unlock this?
Maybe I’m not using it properly? Not impossible; I’m not young. But I’ve googled YouTube for help, but still nothing works.
I did email the Q&A site, but no reply.
Such is life.

Not working properly.

I’m using an iPhone 12 pro, and the app has not been working properly. It sometimes responds better to pitches from C5 and up, but anything lower than that it gets stuck or doesn’t respond. I’ve tried downloading the app several times, I’ve changed my case to make there was no obstruction to the microphone, but the problem is still there. Is there a fix for this, otherwise I’ll to use another app. Cleartune used to work very well and was indispensable when it came to baroque temperaments.

Maybe 10 years

I have had this app a long time. It has long sent my korg and clip on tuners into the obscure corners of my garage. But… I recently purchased an IPhone 13 pro and re purchased the app under a new Apple ID. I am very disappointed. I am using free turners with better success. If the problems are not fixed by march if 2022, I will change to zero stars if it is possible. I hope that I will get my favorite app back and functional.

It’s freezing

I bought this app buts it’s very difficult to tune any instrument with it because the app freezes I really hope that they update the app or els it’s useless.

Could use support for Bluetooth earbuds

Works perfectly but I would love if I could listen to the drone with my airpods.

Seems to have lost contact with the Mike

Mine seems to have seized up and lost contact with the phone mike, rendering it useless.
