It gets the job done, but it's just so confusing to try and operate. I could hardly see if the tuning fork was correctly adjusting and you can't determine whats tuned and what isn't. After sitting around for 20 minutes trying to frustratingly tune your guitar, you will most likely throw your device in anger. I do like that there are no hidden fees for different tunings though. ### 2/5 — Poor *2016-01-26, version 3.0.2* Whenever I am close (the app tells me I am, though I am doubtful that this is accurate) it says: -6 cents. The moment I touch the nob very slightly it tells me that it is at +21. I am pretty sure this is not because of any fault on my part, as I have not been able to tune my guitar with it despite being in a quiet room with no interference and quite a bit of patience. I am sorry if this is a mistake on my part, but as I said I am fairly sure it is not. I really do not want to have to tune with obnoxious you social app, and I thought that being the second item that came up in the search that I had found something reliable. ### 2/5 — seems buggy *2015-10-27, version 3.0.1* I’ve not had much success with it, try another IMHO ### 1/5 — Help *2015-10-25, version 3.0* Please fix the latest update as now the app won't even open. I'm on ios9 ### 1/5 — App Won't Open *2015-10-16, version 3.0* I downloaded this even after the bad reviews because I just needed a basic guitar tuner and the app won't even open. Don't waste your time. ### 1/5 — Rubbish! *2015-10-16, version 3.0* Was always erratic, but now the App won't even open - just crashes straight away. Waste of time !! ### 1/5 — WAS the best tuner I ever used *2015-10-12, version 3.0* Won't open anymore. Probably a bug when everyone updated to IOS 9. Been doing it since.

Please, please, please fix it! ### 3/5 — Needs update *2015-10-08, version 3.0* This is my ultimate favorite tuning app, however, as most have said, it needs to be updated to be compatible with ios9. please make this happen! ### 1/5 — Was Great - until iOS 9 *2015-10-05, version 3.0* Now it no longer functions ### 1/5 — Shuts me out *2015-10-03, version 3.0* Every time I try to use the app it shuts me out.
