Great tuner
I love this tuner and have used it for many years. Please keep it updated!
best and most versatile tuner that I have come across
This is to my mind by far the best and most versatile tuner that I have come across. The Trace Tuner is unique in how it measures and displays tuning and it’s also extremely sensitive. It is easy to play and evaluate even very short and quiet notes, invaluable for instrumentalists wanting to check and improve their tone production. You can see several seconds’ worth of history, thus easy to see back with a great deal of accuracy over the passage just played. I don’t know of any other tuner able to do this. It is possible to do basic extras such as changing the overall pitch (A=440 or other values). Moreover, it has the really cool additional feature of displaying an accurate frequency map showing all overtones and harmonics including their respective volume - you can in effect SEE TIMBRE.
No, I don’t receive a commission for saying all this and I have no personal connection with the developers. I have used this tuner for many years now. It is BRILLIANT. Thanks for creating it.

Useless
Doesn’t pick up sound and no option to change tuning
So perfect!
Exactly what you need for tuning whatever you need. The price is great and would be for much more!
Thank you so much for keeping this updated!

Very accurate!
I was having trouble tuning my ukulele with other paid apps. There's not a lot of margin for error with this tiny instrument. This app is very easy to use and my uke sounds so sweet now. Thank you!
From the looks of the settings page, this app could probably use a refresh to bring it in line with the latest Apple graphical standards, but that's a minor niggle for an app that really improved the sound of my instrument, and therefore, my playing!

Fantastic!
I really needed a precise tuner that was easy to use and could help me get my alto sax in tune. I got this because I needed a tuner for a marching band assignment, and this definitely worked like all tuners should.
The tuner has good "hearing" so to speak, in that it: picks up on a lot of noise, can tell you the frequency (if you need to be that specific), but will pick up some background noise.
I felt that I was able to see my adjustments, get my instrument in tune, and really feel when my sax was in the "golden range".
I definitely recommend this to musicians who need an exact tuner. It was well worth the small price!

Does the job
Saves memory and does the job- 5Star.
Better than any clip on tuner I've owned
v1.3, iOS 6.1.3, iPhone 4S
This thing tunes *very* tight. For best results, you do need to reduce background noise, so a clip adapter would be nice. Can't get away from others? Simply place your phone on the instrument.
I play mandolin, so there's that inherent problem of matching strings. Clip on tuners and needle-type apps leave me wondering why it sounds "off" even though the needle is centered. Not with this tuner. If it says you're in tune, you can bet on it and you can hear the difference.
The display takes a moment to figure out. Just play a note and it becomes self-evident. Tweak the tuning gently and the 5 second display shows your progress. Great idea. That 5 second display may be why you can see such accurate results.
I'm not sure why others want more accuracy. This is my only trusted tuner.

The best tuner app for pros
Can't believe this isn't the top tuner app, perhaps there is a similar one that is more popular. Shows pitches for the past few seconds, excellent for voice training, learning the violin, or setting guitar intonation accurately. The only guitar tuner I will use; most tuners show you an average of pitches, which is inaccurate (guitars are sharp when plucked for example); this shows the actual sampled pitch.
