Won’t pretend that this is the first tuner I reach for, given that I invariably have a clip-on or pedal tuner to hand, or foot, but if you’re thinking of a strobe tuner this does the job brilliantly, and represents fantastic value compared to buying a dedicated unit. If you’re a guitarist at the stage of needing to do or even just tweak your setups, for example, then you can certainly use the extra accuracy and information you get. There’s something of a learning curve, but that’s going to be true for any strobe tuner.

It’s also worth noting that the developer is responsive and helpful. When I upgraded my phone recently the new screen size broke the app’s display, but once I reported that, it was sorted almost immediately.

Unreservedly recommended.

Scam

Big scam, taking money monthly, always crashes, won’t let me unsubscribe.

Worked well … not anymore

Then: Worked well. Tuned Guitars, Basses, Drums.
Now: Can’t open it anymore. App closes within a second.

Only crashes on iPhone

RIP-OFF for iPhone: Was hired to tune a piano, had to turn down the job because it no longer runs on my iPhone, bur you charged me $13.00 anyway.

Unusable in 2024

Honestly, I don’t understand all the positive reviews. This tuner is borderline unusable, maybe it’s due to the updates stopping ages ago, maybe it’s due to the microphone being so much different on iPhone 15, but this tuner cannot be dialed in, no matter what noise filters are on. God forbid you have central air going in the next room, it won’t be able to differentiate its note vs that of the guitar sitting 6 inches away. Only time I’ve ever felt legitimately ripped off on the App Store. Update the app or retire it

Love it!

Finally able to own an actual strobe tuner, that does exactly what it's supposed to do.
No complaints here.

Excellent tuner

Best thing a musician can have on his or her iPhone - thanks for a great app Jim!

Handy little app

Great little app to check the tonality of notes

Great tuner

The tuner is very easy to use and it provides quite a bit of sophisticated, additional information related to color and temperament.

Love this app

I have the Peterson professional version tuner. This app competes with it.

Annoying display

Accurate app, but the spinning display is very annoying

Love this app

It's a great comprehensive app for strobe tuner. I have professional piano tuning software, but this is still extremely useful in many circumstances.

Very Good App

I have been an aural tuner for over 30 years. But, as my ears aged, I needed help with the higher partials and about the two upper octaves on the piano. This app is very useful and is easy to use. I have also used the Android version with good results. Recommended.

Excellent and Accurate Tuner!

I use this a lot, and it’s very convenient since it’s on my iPhone. It is always with me, not in my guitar case. I love the Accuracy and simplicity!
No problem until writing this review. It is making me make up a nickname!

Very Impressive Tuner

If you’re looking for an outstanding tuner then try this!
No joke - it’s like no other tuner I’ve ever used before - very functional and deadly accurate.
Obviously written by someone who understands their craft - highly recommended.

Perfect tuning app

I constantly use this app to tune Native American Style flutes. A very big advantage is being able to see the harmonics of a note which shows me where slight adjustments need to be made. There are so many features available for very fine tuning. I would rate the calibration feature a “++” allowing for perfect environmental tuning. Hands down one of the best apps available for instrument making.

A ‘must have’ for piano!!

I can keep my grand in tune all year long! 🌞❄️

Very happy

I got this because it includes a pre-calibrated TrueTemperament tuning. I also like that it has calibration up to +/- 60 cents as I tune to -20 hertz. It shows the target frequency for each note (it would be better for me if there was also a Just/Harmonic setting as the target frequencies seem to based only on Equal Temperament). I must say that my True Temperament acoustic guitar does now sound very in-tune though! And I’m sure I’ll enjoy the piano slack tuning capabilities when I get a piano.

Amazing Accuracy!

I just tried this incredible App for the first time! The App name is very accurate, and SO is the App itself! 😃 As a casual 'guitar player' - rather than a 'guitarist', my guitar is often left unplayed for lengthy periods of time (I know, I know! I'm a bad lad! Lol 😂), the thing is, I have many other interests that take up much of my time! 🙄🙄🙄 So my guitar is more-often-than-not out of tune by the time I get around to playing it again! I had been on the lookout for a good guitar tuner - there's a plethora on the App Store, - but I got this one just 15 minutes ago and it is SUPERB!!! 😊😊😊 Does just what it says it will do, and with tremendous accuracy! Apparently it's great for tuning other instruments also, such as keyboards - although I'm unable to comment further on that, as I don't have a keyboard to try it on! Well done this developer on a GREAT App!!! 😃👌

PST Tuner Is My Go To

I love this PST tuner app. It's not a strobe, but the features are really useful. My ipad is always near my guitars, so it is very convenient.
