### 2/5 — Double Bass Tuner Simple

*2016-02-15*

Underwhelming…It emits a tone for each string…no visual electronic wave represented for fine tuning.

### 3/5 — It's ok

*2012-12-15*

I thought it would be like a regular tuner. You can't really tune by sound

### 3/5 — 👎

*2012-06-04*

Idk if this is just my iPod but I would not spend my money on this app

### 1/5 — Did not work

*2011-09-10*

Doesn't play any sound.

### 5/5 — Great

*2011-01-29*

It really helps! Great app!

### 5/5 — Bass

*2011-01-21*

I'm 9 and I tuned my bass in 3 minutes and it usually takes me 15 minutes

### 5/5 — Tuned My Bass up GREAT!

*2010-01-28*

This app works great! only problem is it works best on a stereo but other than that does exactly what it says it will 5/5

### 5/5 — Good app

*2009-12-20*

I can now tune my bass without the need of a tuner, using this app, my ears got used to how the tuned strings sound. Now I can just tune my bass knowing how it is supposed to sound because of this app. I really recomend this app it was really usefull

### 1/5 — Double bass tuner

*2009-12-12*

This app is disappointing as it does not cater for playing the double bass using plucking. It is only useful for players who use a bow.

### 1/5 — même pas réglable (440-441,etc.)

*2009-09-26*

boffffen plus c'est payant

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-06-07*

It is really bad

### 1/5 — Do not buy.

*2018-11-19*

Doesn’t work well.  Waste of money!!

### 1/5 — Severe disappointment

*2017-09-05*

The expectation of tuner apps these days is for actual practical help tuning, not just a pitch pipe. If you are looking for a tuning app like most guitar tuning apps, this is not it! Don't waste your $1.49.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2016-03-04*

This app just plays the four notes. Fairly useless!

### 1/5 — Absolute ripoff

*2014-08-30*

I can't beleive I paid money for this (cr)app. All it does is make a noise - somewhat in the vicinity of E, A, D and G. Sounds nothing like a bass. Has no input and nothing to say if you're in tune or not. Sheesh! I want my money back. Yeah, right THAT's likely to happen...

### 1/5 — Terrible😣

*2014-05-23*

Guys, don't waste your money. All the strings make too low of a sound.

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2013-11-25*

You shouldn't have to pay for such a simple app. It only plays you the 4 notes and that is it. Nothing else.

### 1/5 — Hot steaming piece of tuner

*2013-02-12*

Maybe the worst tuning app ever. Can't believe I payed .99 cents for it but I was at a gig and had forgotten my tuner. A friend turned me on to Pano tuner. I think it cost a buck and some change but its the nicest tuning app I've seen yet.

### 1/5 — Totally useless

*2012-10-05*

You have to have a bow. I'm trying to learn rockabilly/slap bass so I don't have or use a bow. Nowhere was this mentioned. Argh!

### 1/5 — Peu d'interet

*2011-10-23*

Pour une appli payante, pas d'intérêt. Si c'était a refaire, je prendrais pas.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2022-10-09*

Simple straightforward 
Keeps my musical ear on point 🤞🏻

### 5/5 — Gets the job done!

*2020-01-26*

I teach middle school orchestra and this app helps me tune the basses while other sections are warming up since it plays the pitch for me to match, unlike a chromatic tuner which gets confused by all the other sounds in the room. It’s not fancy, but it doesn’t need to be.

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2014-03-13*

A good bass tuner that is worth the money!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2014-01-08*

Great app if you have the time to tune your bass.

### 5/5 — Great!!

*2014-01-01*

Great for hearing the sound of the strings while you tune

### 5/5 — Double Bass tuner

*2012-11-14*

This does just what it says. It is perfect for standard EADG tuning. Simple but effective.

### 5/5 — This is great.

*2012-09-09*

Don't listen to the people saying they can't hear anything... They just don't know how to turn their volume up... I usually don't need a tuner but this is great for someone who does.

### 5/5 — Great

*2012-09-06*

I'm a professional bassist and I must say THIS APP IS AWESOME

### 5/5 — Amazing!!! 😊😊😊

*2012-06-09*

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2011-06-04*
