### 3/5 — Pretty good

*2026-08-22, version 3.37*

I wish you guys could get more songs sooner, but it’s still a good app.

### 3/5 — Good but some flaws

*2026-08-21, version 3.37*

It barely hears me play so when I do a tune it doesn't hear with and without headphones but tuning is fine

### 3/5 — Simply tuner review

It’s a good tuning app probably the best one

### 5/5 — Awesome, singing sounds weird

Great app, real helpful. I just kinda wish they had more songs and options for the guitar playing during said songs, and it’s free :)

### 2/5 — Alright sometimes

*2026-08-16, version 3.37*

Worked fine yesterday, today completely messed up my ukulele, and put it completely out of pitch, I move it slightly ill and it says it’s all the way low and slightly down and it’s wayyyy too high, I’m not sure how because yesterday I was tuning my ukulele and it wasn’t doing that at all I’ve been tuning it today for like 30 minutes and it just messed up my
Ukulele

### 5/5 — Free

### 1/5 — Was great until…

*2026-08-23, version 3.37*

When I first got this app, I was an ameture guitarist, and it really helped me get to grips with my guitar, some basic chords and even a few songs! I loved this app so much, I say lovED because as of a recent update barely any of the songs are available to learn for free and it makes you go to another one of their apps, where you basically have to pay for everything. I feel this app went really downhill and I would no longer recommend it to any of my friends trying to learn, I prefer my guitar book now. 💔🎸

### 1/5 — Trash

*2026-08-21, version 3.37*

I’ve used guitar turners for a while now and this since gained an ear for a tuned guitar. However, i appreciate the extra validation that comes with something or someone else says that this is a tuned guitar. However, while trying to tune my b string (mind you the app “recommends headphones” even for tuning and I used with and without headphones) I just couldn’t get the tune anywhere close to right. It ultimately ended with a snapped string and I am highly upset about it. I would never recommend this app to my friends especially the almost $00 a year subscription. NEVER PAY FOR THIS!!! If you want to pay for a legitimate guitar tuner/trainer, I would highly recommend “GuitarTuna”, they are actually a decent yearly price, a legitimate company, and don’t end in snap strings

### 1/5 — Can’t free tune.

*2026-08-20, version 3.37*

You get one shot to tune the string then it automatically guides you to the next string. Not very useful.

### 1/5 — U made me break my string

*2026-08-07, version 3.37*

U MADE ME BREAKE MY STRUNG

### 1/5 — Guys don’t use this tuner

*2026-07-31, version 3.37*

It only tunes the ukulele or guitar first time you ever do it and if you try one more time, it just doesn’t tune

### 1/5 — Kind of a bad app

*2026-07-29, version 3.36*

I apologize about this review, but this app does not work on Henry string acoustic bronze. I try to tune the low E string and it keeps saying it’s tune, but I know it is not correct it does not sound good. This app is kind of bad, and sorry about the review.

### 1/5 — Stupid

*2026-07-26, version 3.36*

One of my strings broke because it told me to tune up too much.

### 1/5 — Broken string

*2026-07-19, version 3.35*

I broke a string tuning it. I did exactly as it said and it snapped. I know certain it wasn’t my fault…

### 1/5 — I HATE THIS TUNER SO MUCH

*2026-07-13, version 3.34*

I WAS TRYING TO TUNE 	MY GUITAR AND IT MADE MY G STRING GO SO HIGH IT SNAPPED

When I’m short time before a set, this little tool is great and accurate.

### 5/5 — Simply Tune – simply brilliant.

*2026-08-22, version 3.37*

I have spent nearly $600 on tuners over the last seven years, money. I consider a complete waste. This app has been an absolute blessing, making it very simple and easy to change tunings and keys in seconds.
