Excellent!!!

Works great! Now I know the names of the tunes I want to learn.

Recognizes Thousands of Irish Tunes

I've used TunePal in various forms for several years; started with it back when it was running on "Palm" and "PocketPC" devices. I've never had a problem with it on my iPhone or iPad and it is currently installed on my iPhone 5s running iOS 7.1.1.

I see it used often at Irish music sessions when an unfamiliar tune is played by someone present. It almost always identifies the tune in question and the sheet music reference it provides allows confirmation.

Well worth the money in my opinion.

Save your money

Very disappointed. It finds a lot of tunes as described BUT menu bars take up 2/3 of the screen. Score appears very small. Rotating ipad makes score slightly larger, but the menu bars get bigger as well. Definitely not worth the 5 dollar App Store prices. If you buy, you'll need magnifier glasses to see the score.

Not ready for iOS7

The Tunepal app is not working on either my iPhone 4S or iPhone 5S under iOS7. An error message pops up on the record option each time it is activated saying "Tunepal couldn't hear enough notes." Reboots and resets will not clear this error. The App is not able to access microphone!

Other issue is that developer only communicates through Facebook, so purchasers who do not use Facebook can not get support!

This app used to be great, but as Apple users transition to iOS7, this app becomes useless and this is a terrible shame!

Doesn't Work - Period!

Out of dozens of nice clear Irish tunes I got this to work on one solitary tune! I would be happy to pay good money if the desighners put some good solid development effort into it. Btw, the tune? The Kesh Jig - wow. Don't waste your time.

Expected better for Β£2.99

Not impressed so far. Tried this on a music box I have and it's come up with different results every time and not a single one correct. Also, whenever I try to view the details of a second result it hangs on the loading symbol.

Crashes

I can't open the program, and have lost ALL of my saved tunes when trying to reinstall.

Thanks

This app has been a tremendous help in expanding my repertoire of tunes. And... If you have a wireless printer you can make hard copies if the music.
Wants?
Some ambiguity in tune titles as is common in Irish Trad.
And just music .. No Tabs.
Maybe a fix in future versions?
Extra 1/2 star for the rating...

Life changer for tune seekers!

Just what I needed!

Printing

This is a great app apart from the fact that I cannot print out any of the tunes that I find.
