Blah...

### 1/5 — One tiny sound then a commercial?

*2021-04-23, version 2.3*

I’ve never written a review but I immediately deleted your app and I am immediately writing this review to everyone looking for a simple way to just tune there’s stupid banjo.  Do not use this app he will watch 50 commercials before you even got to the freaking second string.  Why is everyone a scammer?

### 1/5 — Awful!

Non responsive or ads only. Garbage.

### 1/5 — Completely unusable

*2020-08-28, version 2.3*

There’s an ad after literally every click you make, I don’t even know if it’s a good tuner because it’s impossible to actually use it without sifting through a million ads.

### 1/5 — TERRIBLE

*2020-04-05, version 2.3*

### 5/5 — Banjo tuner

*2019-11-03, version 2.3*

Good app

### 5/5 — Easy

*2019-03-17, version 2.2*

Useful combination between a tuner and a metronome.

### 4/5 — Works

*2024-01-09*

Wish I had free access to alternative tunings

### 4/5 — Bounces a bit but, awesome

*2019-10-28, version 2.2*

I am a beginner. The tuner bounce around a bit when picking strings but overall, I’m satisfied.

### 4/5 — New Crash Bug

*2019-09-27, version 2.2*

This is an excellent app I use it all the time, it makes my banjo sound great but there is a new bug crash that whenever I try to tap a note it crashes, this may only be on the iPhone X I’m not sure, but besides that this app works like a charm.

### 4/5 — Good if You Have Four Strings

*2015-02-28, version 1.01*

I applaud the simplicity of the app, but I cannot use it because I have a 5-string banjo and not four. Within the next few updates, have the app tune instruments with different amount of strings. That would make it much better!
